Window Tinting

[Burple]

Pretty sure Light Smoke is the equivalent to the Mini level of tinting from the factory.. like mine..

Mini designs quoted me £110 in jan for the back windows to get done so it works out roughly the same. Comercial sponsor too .

The next option is what do I go for:
LIGHT SMOKE - 50%
SMOKE - 35%
MIDNIGHT - 20%

I like the idea of midnight but may be too suspect, possibly smoke. Anyone got any pictures of these on their minis?

I'm also think on getting new alloys. So I'd be going from 15" spoolers to 17" S spokes or Bullets. I'm just paranoid about my car as it is parked on a street at night. Really don't wanna do something that's just asking for trouble but again don't wanna not do something I really want.

Mini is either smoke or midnight, bought the car with them done. Did have the fronts done aswell but got pounded for it

Didn't think yours was factory tints?

Here is my previous S. It was done at tinthaus Edinburgh and cost about £160. It was the light tint and pretty close to the factory tint.

Could be worth looking into a group-buy for tints - a few seem interested and I am too if they are not much more than £100.

Pretty sure our sponsors could do us a good deal if there was commitment from a few of us

Could all take a trip to them on the same day if they had the manpower!

Not a bad idea smitty. How would we go about this? Should I edit the first post to include all interested or start a new thread? I may e-mail them if I get enough interest. So if you are interested then let me know and I'll put your name down on the first post.

I know they don't usually do a sat unless it's the only day you could go and they were ok with it being the only day I could go, but maybe if there were a few of us that would make it better for them coming in on a day they don't usually work?

I reckon ask the question to MINI Designs first, then start up a new thread.

Timing could be an issue with me being down South and away from my car - but I'll try and get something arranged to be home at that time, or get parents to take the car.

Also try motorwerks in aberdeen, did my dads car with the midnight stuff and it turned out awesome. Hit me up for contact details if interested

I am interested, if there was a good deal. It is on my list of to do's but near the bottom at the moment.
