    Pics would be good, thanks for that. I may have to go see the local tint a car place here also and see what they think.

    Hey John, here are some pics hope you found it useful - 'tint a car' applied the Bolle tint which is mostly commonly used for VW, just got it done this morning and need to leave the tint dry for a couple of days.

    thanks heaps for that.
    In that first photo was that with or without the tint.
    The rest of the photos show it as a fairly good match.
    Would you know what % tint they used as the front glass already has a slight tint to it, so a 35% tint would make it illegal.

    My pleasure mate. The first one is WITH the tint in the garage, though looks a little lighter than the rear glass. They do look fairly good match most of the time imo - the best match that the boys can do over there. They used 35%, I just phoned them up to double check, they told me there is a threshold for the legal %, they managed to bring it down as close to 35% to be legal, and confirmed shouldn't have any legality issue. Finger crossed

    Hi John, just check did you do paint protection on your white Roc? It looks very glossy in your previous pictures (its virgin state), or you just did polish/wax before shooting it?
