I'm going to be tinting my Scoob soon, and would like to see what it looks like on other Scoobs. Please post pictures of your car, and a description of what levels/colour of tint you went for.

Cheers all!

Thumbs up

Cheers guys - all looking very nice! Does anyone have progressive tinting (i.e. very dark on the rear window, lighter on the rear sides, lighter still on the front sides, and very light on the windscreen) ?

Hi robport,

I have ordered my car from Litchfield Imports and they are organising the tinting. They are based in Cheltenham, but I don't know who they get to do it.

Price for 5 windows = £295.

£500 seems rather excessive.

I have seen other quotes on here, most of which seem to be around the £250(ish) mark. I'm sure I could get mine for less, but it is the ease of just picking the car up with it all ready.

Good luck and enjoy the new car.

Cheers

Simon

My experience on this is you get what you pay for.
On my last 330 sport I had Pentagon do it and it was perfect. Cost circa £450.
Had the STI done locally by a yank £250 and altho in the pictures it looks ok it was **** and I had it removed.
I will post some pictures soon as it now has Pentagon tints that are superb. Blemish free etc.
I would recommend them. Worth the congestion charge
I know they have franchises aswell.
Good luck.
