    They have what on the surface seems like a good deal on tinting in Ouffer today :

    Ouffer - Today's Ouffer: Premium Formula One Car Window Tinting
    Have a good read of the Window Tint thread in here... $189 is nothing special... prices range from $100 to $250 depending on who and what is done. Lots of good info...

    Yes formula one looks fine but I only paid 160 for the two front windows anyway..... so don't worry about the deal site.

    Just had my two fronts tinted with Bolle Green through Tint a Car here in Bendigo, $160 all up.

    There is a definite green tinge so we'll see how it cures over the next couple of weeks.

    The joys of living in the country......

    It just got a little bit more expensive, I found debris under the tint on the passenger side

    Went out to book it back in to get re-done and decided to get all the windows done in midnight express as the green just doesn't look right after looking at it for a couple of hours....at least I get a discount.....

    I would be careful having all the windows done in the same product.. the rears are Privacy Glass to start with which is already at the theoretical legal limit.
    There is a massive amount of info in this thread and in the Golf Mk6 threads... Bottom of post 3 http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/foru...tml#post699315

    Hmmmm, the guy I was talking to said it wouldn't a problem as the 35% rule only applied to the fronts.

    Is there anyone else who can confirm this while I do some research?

    Thanks for your help here Andych, Looks like a lot of people have had success with the Formula One tint from Tint a Car so I'll see how I go on Monday.

    Reviving this thread...

    So.. finally having my windows tinted next week with Car Tint.

    Rob inspected the car today as he's never done a Scirocco before, said he'd give it a go without removing the door trim... hopefully the film will hold... if it doesn't.. off to a body shop to remove the trim
    MY12 Scirocco R - slightly not stock :rolleyes:
