Tints in Sydney

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know a good place in Sydney where I can get my windows tinted? I think I want to go a bit darker than the legal limit. I'm thinking 25% which is what I use to have on my last car.

Thanks heaps
Dave

I asked BMW Sydney (Northside) who they use, and they pointed me at Universal Tint in Winbourne rd, Brookvale.

I haven't used them yet, as my car is still to arrive. I did speak with someone there --- they seemed professional, and knew about the specific challenges with tinting BMW's

Hope that helps.

+1. Universal does all my cars and have done for the past 4 years. Jon runs the place and is a nice guy.

Darkest legal tint is 35%, 25% sounds light. Regardless, I'm sure he will listen to specific requests.

I got mine done by the dealer (Col Crawford) they used Solartint in Brookvale. Very happy with it (35%).

We used to get all our cars tinted by Edgar who used to work for Solartint Miranda (he worked on BMW Sylvania's cars back in the days). He used to charge us only $150 for an exceptional tint. Plus, he would come to our house and do it for that price!

But when it came to tint the 130, it seemed that Edgar was no longer working for Solartint and his mobile number was disconnected. So I asked a few friends (import drivers) and they recommended a bloke out in Blacktown. Same price and quality, but the catch is you have to go to him. So i tried him out and his work seemed pretty decent, however i wont be taking a prestige car back to him... his finish wasn't as good as Edgars. But, I am happy nonetheless. 20% tints looks awesome! =]

Let me know if you'd like his details (be prepared for a long drive though lol).
