i looked at eclipse but they were pricey. I got mine done from tintmyride in Whitley Bay. It was miles away but they only charged £100. I got my old car done there to. Everywhere else was quoting me £130 minimum. The tints are good a little darker than I wanted tho. I got the 35% ones. Ill put some photos up when i get my car cleaned.

It's medium smoke 35% the visibiliy is fine. Doesn't make barely any difference seeing out, just seeing in. Gonna get the front ones done 50% light smoke tho

Lad I must have run around Bangor for at least a year before coming here with 85% tint all round.

Went though MOT as above, just said the windows regs had given up. As windows arn't required for an MOT, wasn't a problem. That was at Ards.

Still have 85% all round and never had a question asked or been stopped. But then i never bother with 'carparks' (ie sunday night!!)

What you up to these days yourself?
