To window tint or not?

Hi,

My 1st D3 used to have dark glass behind the B pillar and now my wife wants to do the same for the one D3 we pick up at the weekend.

I have looked at the internet for prices and found it would cost between 200 and 300 pounds, is this a good price?

Also, does anyone have any reccomendations for firms in Berkshire who do tinnting.

Any help gratefully received oh and the D3 is Tonga Green, does it make a difference to the shade?

Felipe

Do a search on here, there is a thread on Tinting, and a deal to forum members.

Price is about right and I definitely prefer D3's with tinted 'privacy' rear glass

Mines a HSE so its done as standard, but my old TD5 was'nt and the amount of glass the Disco's have need tints for security and sun protection. Tis a good idea to get it done mate, but dont be tempted to do the fronts Whistle

Jason - it's not standard on a HSE Whistle It's still a cost option . . . .

Tints make a D3 in my opinion.

I've dropped mine off at a local installer tonight to get limo tints fitted tomorrow. Thumbs Up

I've heard good things about that chap.

I've seen loads of examples of this guys work where mine is on my customers cars, so confident that it'll be bang on, as well as a good price. Thumbs Up
