Window Tinting for the Mk7

[veew]

I was thinking of getting my car done at D&S as well, otherwise I'll get it done at Elite Finish. Will be looking at getting the car opticoated (also by either of those companies) but I won't get the car until April/May and the opticoat requires a good 24hrs of curing which I'd prefer to do in warmer weather.

BTW let me know if the local guys do the small front window as well. One of the other guys won't tell me the place he took it to as they swore never to do another Golf 7 lol

Hamish (Elite Finish) is an excellent detailer and I can vouch for him - I've had my car detailed by him before and will do so again. I've not seen his tinting work though.

Hey Levendi,

will be a great help.

Anyone else from Melbourne have experienced to share?

So no one gets it done from the dealers when they buy the car then? I know it is overpriced but least if anything goes wrong it is all in the warranty from the dealer?

You still get warranty from the tinter.

The dealer usually sub-contracts to a tint shop anyway, so if you have a claim you take your car to the dealer, who then takes it back to the tint shop & plays Chinese Whispers as to what the problem is, etc.

Personally, I'd rather deal direct with the specialist that is working on my car.
