Cool Before and After Tint Thread

I thought it was strange there wasn't one on here so I've made one. Please post your rides Before and After Tint Pictures here.

Here is my 2011 Toyota Hybrid Camry Hybrid - Liquid Metal.

Before Tint:



After Tint:



The tint I got was called Charcool 35% by Madico. 35% is the darkest legal tint you can have in Australia. I had the car tinted at a company called CAR TINT PTY. LTD. There motto is "Setting the Standard".

Here's a link to the tinters page www.cartint.net.au

The name of the tinter was Rob Tait and I'd highly recommend him to anyone who wants a perfect tint done. Rob is extremely thorough, professional and his enthusiasm for tinting and auto mobile's is outstanding.

You can sit and watch him work whilst having a friendly chat from anything from tinting to what cool apps you have on your iPhone. Rob's been tinting cars for 35 years and he himself was one of the pioneers of tinting cars in Australia.

He's tinted everything from Trams to Concept Vehicles........

Here's a GT FPV he's tinted, same tint that's on my car.....



I got to his shop at 8:30am and It was all finished at 1:10pm. Whilst you may think that is a long time, you can't rush perfection and perfection is what I got. I personally will never go anywhere else for tinting again. Anyone in Victoria, Australia would be mad not to go there for their tinting needs.

I totally have those :) I have a photo-album of my baby every step that we've taken together LOL

Pic one: The day I bought her (yeah, already had a lot of stuff ready and waiting for her the day I bought her because I took everything off my sedan that I could use on the LB) no tint, looks SO different not blacked out

Pic two: Happy and tinted 3 days after purchase :)

I have 20% tint, but I should have gotten 10%...it's not dark enough IMO - I don't know what's legal and don't really care but I am pretty sure it's 35%
