best window tint business?

[TDI DSG]

I'm looking to get my MK6 wagon tinted, but have noticed that the wagon has both the shark fin antena on the roof and the small lines on the rear most windows. At first I thought the lines on the windows were demister lines but they are not. Do I have 2 antena's ?
The manual says it could be any of several places but does not say which one.

I take it this means no metlised film ?

The car manufacturers will say that metalised film may cause reception problems (especially with AM radio) because it may cause receiption problems for some people - however unlikely it is.

However, good luck on finding a reputable tint company that will install a non-metalised film and provide you with a lifetime warranty. You know all those old cars running around with purple window tint plagued with bubbles... that's why people started using metalised film

I had non metalised film put on our accord euro (2010) because of the window mounted antenna. It was done by ARMA in PReston Vic (which have since switched to be a Tint-a-Car after ARMA was bought out. Very happy with the job, no reception issues. Can't remember which film it was but it did have a lifetime warranty, I was very carefull about that.

More importantly would be finding out the brand of the tint you had installed...

Can anyone recommend a good/affordable tinting business in east suburbs Melbourne (for the Polo actually)?

i can also recomend Nick from 'Mr Cool', Sydney

I still want to see pics of Corey's window tinting to see if his recommendation of Window Tinter is worthy..

[Corey_R]

Oh damn... forgot about this.

As far as I'm concerned though, you've got 5000 members on this forum recommending Rob and his work and product, the tint manufacturer is Solargard, who are Australia's most respected tint product. There are also already pictures of the product online (although at different %'s) and it's almost impossible to figure out from photos anyway).

So if you guys want to ignore all the evidence, then you miss out - that's your problem not mine

lol.. I am a father .. that was the best dodge and it is your fault diatribe ever.. well done

now post your car piccie..!

Callout to anyone in the Newcastle area who wants to get their windows tinted this weekend.

Robert from Hunters Hill Window Tinting is coming up to Newcastle this Saturday (21st May) to tint my Golf R and my sisters Audi TT-S. Robert had previously organised several other cars in this area to be tinted on the same day but he just rang me and told me that everyone else has pulled out. BUT, he is still coming up to tint our 2 cars.

So he is hoping to get 1 or 2 more cars (making a total of 3 to 4 cars including mine and my sisters) to tint on the day.

First in best dressed.

Please call me on 0422 247 831 for more details or to express your interest in getting your windows tinted. I have told Robert that i will help manage any more people who are interested and i will let him know.

I picked up my GTI on Monday. Called Rob from Hunters Hill to see if I can book my car in for tinting, he advised that he was pretty much booked out but took my details in case there were any cancellations.

Rob called me earlier today and said to bring it in first thing tmr morning (7am) as he had a cancellation.

I'll post my impressions of his work sometime after its done (however, given all the previous recommendations and his reputation im pretty sure i won't be disappointed).

Another +1 for Rob at Hunters Hill. He did my wifes car last year, but a couple of weeks ago I got him to do my office window tinting......the usual excellent job.

In Melbourne, Rob from Cartint in Ringwood - Car Tint has previously been mentioned. Can anyone comment on his work.

Thanks

+1 for Rob from Hunters Hill Window Tinting.

Did my 3 Door Golf GTI the other morning - extremely nice guy who takes pride in his work. Extremely meticulous and pricing was very very good.

Anyone have any suggestions for Brisbane?
Looking for someone who will do a good job, and also to match the tinted glass on the sportspack.
