Just took delivery of my blue Euro on Monday. Very satisfied with it indeed. :rolleyes: The car is available for pickup much earlier than expected. I only waited for like 10 days when I was told I had to wait for 3 weeks.
Now I am going to get it tinted. Does any body in the Brisbane area know any good place to do window tinting for the Euro?
Congrats on ur new Blue Euro...
Congrats, nice color too you will love it, and so will everyone else :D Trust me I have lost count the amount of times I have been stopped for compliments on the car and color !
Why didn't you just get the dealer to organise the tint? I just got my dealer to throw Ming tints on, looks good and blocks out 99 percent of UV rays ;)
Because they would rip you off for it.Quote:

Hell no! my dealer wanted $600 or $650 or something stupid for tint. They also said that scratches on the inside was bullshit and no felt was needed.Quote:

cheep insurance, get your dealer to organise it. IMO
Totally agree! I got mine done with the dealer, after about two weeks, I got a straight line on the tint on both driver and passanger side. Took it back to the dealer, they couldnt do anything about it, they told me that it can happen in Accord, no garauntees my friend, not their fault! Pissed me off big time, so I just had to fix it myself. Live an Learn! :thumbdwn:Quote:

If u do pay for tint from the dealer ur just a lazy bugger :p
Hello guys, thanks for your input.
Yea...the dealer didn't want to cut the price of the tinting. I was quoted $450 at one dealer and $495 at the dealer I bought the car from! What a rip off! When I haggled and haggled and finally got a good price on the car, there poped in an aftermarket sales who tried to sell me paint protection, rust protection, sound deadening and also window tinting and she asked for $1600! I may do it if that's $500. Then of course I refused her offer politely.
Do you guys know what would be a reasonable price for good window tinting? I find that most tinting places askes for around 250-300.
Yeah thats a reasonable price.. Got my Illegal 05 tint for $330 with felt put on so not to scratch my tint... But took them off and put legal reflective tint for $300.... So yeah ur estimation is in the ball park...Quote:
