Got your Fit's windows tinted in vancouver?
 
Hi all,

Wondering if anyone here in Vancouver area shas had their windows tinted on their Fit.. who did you go with? I'm hearing a lot of good reviews about Advanced Window Films in Poco and also good comments about a guy named Larry that does window-tinting mobile style (go.to/tinting). Any recommendations?

Do they take your windows out when getting 'em tinted? Would be kinda freaky to have those rear-most windows taken out, since I wouldn't really trust someone to perfectly re-seal them back on... just seems really sketchy to me. Maybe I'm just a noob and don't realize peoples' expertise, though. Really don't know what to expect.

OK, thanks for any tips/recommendations..

I've had both my civic and fit tinted at N-Motion. They are pretty good and have good prices. They also have lifetime guarentee with the tinting.

Nice, I've really been leaning towards N-Motion as they seem quite pro and a few people I know have got their tinting done their. The "lifetime of the vehicle" warranty is a killer option too... not to mention the decent looking prices. I'll probably go with them, just gunna wait until after xmas and give 'em a call. :)

how much does n-motion charge??

smatts Dec 19, 2007 12:01 AM

depending on what you want all 5 rear and the 2 fronts it will range anywhere from $125-$180, they sponsor a few local car sites and if you mention this you'll get a good discount... I forget which ones but I think Vancouver civics and Revscene.

i just called N-motion, and i asked how much for all windows tint...and its $250...

smatts Jan 15, 2008 08:03 PM

im surprised its that much, it should be around $180... especially this time of year they should be having a good special because no one wants tint at this time of year...

yeah datz wat i thought too...

choyi Jan 15, 2008 08:32 PM

i just called another tinting place...where i went there before to tint another car....including the 2 small window in the front itz $320....wtf.... maybe N-motion is cheaper then....probably call again to see if $250 from N-motion include the 2 small window...

smatts Jan 15, 2008 08:43 PM

well wait how many windows are you getting tinted? If it's all 7 windows $250 is not that bad a deal, but like i said, it is off season and they should give you a deal... N-motion's best thing is that its a lifetime warrenty, so if they install it poorly or it gets ruined by bubbles or whatever later on they fix it for free.

And choyi remember that tinting any window in front of your shoulders is illegal in BC. Many people do it, but it's something to be aware of. Myself I have 20% rear and 70% tint in the fronts and it's barely noticible. I would not recommend going any darker then 50% in the front windows. And NEVER tint your windshield that is a big safety no-no.

choyi Jan 15, 2008 08:49 PM

oh...ok....yeah i guess i'll go to N-motion....i was thinking 35% all around...did u do the small window as well?? After reading wat u said...duno if i should tint the small window now....

GeorgeC Jan 15, 2008 09:58 PM

i've heard stories of cops keying the tint

hmm gonna check out pics of your car to see how the 70% front 20% back looks

FELIXY69 Jan 16, 2008 06:48 AM

i just got my windows tinted
50% back seat windows and the rear 2 small window along with 35% on the rear hatch window
all for $180
this guy is named bill, if u want pm me for his number, he'll come to u

necro2600 Jan 16, 2008 01:48 PM

Cool man, taken any pics yet? I was thinking of doing the same, 50 on sides and 35 on rear window.. probably won't put any on the front at all, though, even though I want to.. :\

Combo Jan 16, 2008 01:57 PM

5% front 5% back 20% hatch

sumo Jan 16, 2008 03:14 PM
