Anyone used Tinthaus or Auto-Tint Abertay in Aberdeen to get there windows tinted??? I used Scotglass in Oldmeldrum last time for my Supra but its a bit of a hike and you have to leave the car overnight etc. Just wondered as im considering getting them done on the Impreza.

Chop ,

Yeah very very nice mate , definetly be interested Ask the guy if you could please. the only thing i'd say is I would hoepfully be looking for them a bit darker. I had the rear and small side windows totally blacked out and subtle tints on the drivers and passenger side windows to keep within the letter of the law.
Let me know what he says, I did call them on Sat but never got an answer.

Cheers

thats actually the darkest tint well they could totally black em i spose but its the darkest you can still see out of.think its called 20%?
the pics make em look quite light but actually its pretty dark.at night u cant see in at all.

sorry i dont like havin rears tinted darker than fronts. all the same is WAY better.

so what car u have so i can ask?

Lambchops pics don't show how dark 20% tints can look.

Certain light gives differing effects, but generally the car looks pretty dark.

Had mine done at AWG/Advanced Auto Tinting in Glasgow.

Ok mate sorry for the delay , give him a shout and let me know what he says.

I guess my tints were the same just looked really dark and u couldnt see in them at all unless u were right up at the car. Scotglass did my tints on my old Supra. How do I post a pic on here and I will show you.

Turbo charged Sofa very good haha ,

I wouldnt say its a car for someone who is skint! Ok The original purchase price is low nowadays but parts / maintenance on one of these and running cost's is seriously high.

Doug,
When you get your car tinted, it'd be good to have a look . I'm considering getting my wagon tinted with the same tints as LC's Cossie.
