Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • All around. I did same as Corey although Rob suggested solargard HP supreme 22% at the front if to match the colour closely but decided to keep it legal.

        Had mine done today as well, said he had a golf R in the morning, guessing it's yours.

        Really happy with the end result.

            • +1 for Rob

              Had my R done last Friday and really happy with the result. Ended up going all round and one darker than 35 on the front.

              Rob is a top bloke and is VERY reasonably priced for the service provided.

                      It looks real dark, doesn't it? Of course it's all legal 35%.

                      Top job, done by top bloke, Dave at ReflectEffect. I think using Johnson Window Films.

                      • hey guys, i'm thinking of getting some light tinting done - mostly for UV protection, but i've heard that the car already is slightly tinted and does a large amount of UV blocking as standard - does anyone have any more info?
                        cheers

                          • Hey mate, what car do you have?
                            Did it already come with the "dark tint" option from factory? If so, then you're already at the legal max for South Australia. SA are one of the only (the only?) state in Australia to still regulate that you must have 70% VLT on the front driver and passenger windows, therefore you can't put any tint there without being illegal.

                            Having said that, you can still put 35% VLT tint on the rear side windows and rear window.
                            I'm just not sure how many people have bothered going to get their car half tinted in SA... anyone?

                              • I don't actually have any photos (taken with a proper camera) since getting the tint done... may have to take some next time the car gets a wash
