HOLD ON!!!!!!!!

what kinda tint is FX giving you guys.. they have 3 grades

regular... in 3 shades
semi metalic... in 3 shades
full metalic... in 3 shades

I got a walk in deal from fx auto for the semi metalic tint for 200
no bargining. 175 for the regular and 225 for the full metalic..

prices are all taxed in..

make sure FX is not giving you this group buy price for the regualr film
as the semi and full metalic films blocks off more uv rays and reduce more heat.

well if u go with 5% then u will get in s h i t
but 15 or 20 or 25% u wont really get into trouble

make sure u ask the guy to throw in the free sunstrip banner (go 5%) to block the sun. if u dont ask then they wont do it

good luck and enjoy the tints cuz summer is almost here

usually u can go with 5% or 15% for the banner...as dark as possible

the cop can't say it's too dark for the banner but the cop can ticket u if the banner is too long (half the size of the windshield)

I always get hastled by them and i have a stock. I would do 20% but the thing to remember is that, 1 ticket = a couple of hundred bucks extra on the insurance =(

New Price for the Tint for 2k1 Civic coupes.

$200
^^^

Well, talked with Richard and he said that he's charging 200 because it's going to take a bit more time to do the coupe.
I'm fine with it since he emphazied that he'll take his time on my car.


Soo just to let all the other guys with coupes.

200

$258 for sedan is way too much man

scsGrumpy: i think the guy was referring to speeding ticket or getting caught racing or traffic offence.
tint windows is not part of the traffic offence i think

really? then ouch! hehe... ah well i couldn't wait since the sun was burning a hole in my left arm... how much was i supposed to pay?

btw, tintking sauga did a great job! they didn't cut around the 3rd brake-light (took the deck off), nice and neat, and gave me that tint-cleaner stuff for free (how much does this stuff cost?)
