Hi Martin,

Passed ur motor earlier this morning on the way to find Tint haus. Obviously I was a bit lost as your work is the other end of the Road.:I

That was me just picking my baby up again with the windows done at last. Very pleased with it, nice and subtle and Legal-ish !!!!!!!!

No comments about women and directions :p

Tints looked nice, looks good against the dark silver. Cant decide if it would look good on electric blue

Someone in this thread was looking for tint places in aberdeen, maybe you should let him know about tint haus

Thanks for the link - I've got my back windows done on order but now want my front ones tinted too (legal) - you should get a commission from the garage for all the mini business youve sent his way!:)

Doh, yeah sorry Julz - forgot you had tints on your car. I guess tints look great on an Electric Blue then :D

Yup, I thought it made a big difference, the car seems to look sleeker!! Plus, it keeps the interior a bit cooler on our occasional sunny day!!:cool::D

It most certainly does! Cheers Julz - I called the guy up today at Gordons Garage but they no longer have the company come up to Aberdeen to do the tints. I'm booked into the Tint House at Althens for next Wednesday. :cool:

Tint Haus are definately the peeps to go with, unfortunately I didn't, but that doesn't stop me recommending them too!!;):D

I have seen many tinted cars with the factory dark tint on the rear and aftermarket lighter legal on the front on some mini runs down south.
In my opinion it does not look good, it's legal, but dosn't do the car justice, if you can your best to have the entire car done aftermarket with the legal 25 per cent all round, front screen excepted :cool:

thaks for the tip - i'll keep my eyes out for cars with tints and see if what I prefer - Tint Hause did say they would go darker if I was willing to take the risk

My honest opinion is your car would look chocadoobie (yes, that is a word, we Googled it to find out and it came from a Kinder ad and I can't stop saying it!!8)) with all the windows dark, but it depends on your bravery levels!!;):p

Very chocadoobie - think I can risk it, I'll just have to flutter my eyelashes extra fast at the police if I get stopped!

Nenah, you beat me to that one - by about 10 seconds :D Sure it would work just as well with Police as it did with MMM ;)

Just for the record it was my husband reading the ditrections so there:p

Got a grade 2 Tint on all windows which looks the Dogs, I think !! Did think bout getting darker on the back but wanted it to look consistent.

Only prob I've notioced so far is you feel a bit daft wearing sunglasses and boy do I have sunglasses !!:cool:

Oh and remember when they say don't put your window down for three days, that includes getting a ticket in Trinity car park, DOH !!

I ordered factory tints without asking anything about it. I assumed it meant all the windows except the windscreen would look the same! Wont they? If not, why not?
:eek:
