Im not sure how great that tint would be. Actually I was looking at tint a few weeks ago and seen on the site you can tint your own car for $90 if they provide you with the tinting stuff.

Tint mart is preety good cost $199 for a full tint done by them. I got that but went darkest legal which was $270. Tint a Car wanted $395 for the mid night-rip off express. Our ute previously got done on the expensive tint a car one and the one from tint mart looks way better and appears darker.

Sunroof centre in Dandenong has tinted all of my current and previous cars.
Top quality tint and a top job too.

Tint Professor did mine, it's not perfect, but the only two faults i can find are very minimal. Looks great overall. Cost $265

I had a XF done at tint-a-car in 98 & it was really good quality..
I brought a EF ghia in 2000 & it had tint-a-car tint & all windows we're really fuzzy..
My AU had a fuzzy rear window which got re-tinted before i got it not sure what company did it..
I rekon I'd pay whatever i had to to get one with lifetime warranty.

How's the cut line at the top of the window ? Mine is a little wonky in some spots, and dips a little too much on one window. Other than that it's fine.

there is a better place in bayswater. it costs $300, and the quality is outstanding. there is no cut lines, as the tinting comes right to all the edges. i got mine 2 years ago, and have never had a problem. it comes with a lifetime warranty

The $100 job is for small cars.
I had our old EF done at Tint Proffessor and cost $250 darkets legal with a special deal. There were a few imperfections, but I couldnt complain with paying such a cheap price.
