Offline |  Smoking the windows Hey there My dealer quoted £300 but I'll be shopping around. I've heard that typically it costs around £150-£200 depending on the size of the car. Given the relative size of the mini I'd expect to be at the bottom end of that range. Will post update as and when. Post pics if you go ahead with this. I think it'll look pretty darn cool! Later... spaceman  ______________________________________ silver/silver, black/red int, bodykit, driving spots, clear lamps |

Offline  | Pentagon Auto Tint Pentagon Auto Tint are the only people to let touch your windows the quality of their work is top dollar... Cooper will cost £245 for tinted windows or you can spend an extra £100 and have that special security film put on as well making your car impenitrable to smash and grab thiefs!!! I think they are located accross the UK definately in London. They are always advertising in the back of the more respectable car magzines i.e. CAR and EVO This car is going to lose me my license one day. I LOVE IT!!! Dark Silver/Black Cooper S Chilli Shiny Red Brake Calipers The biggest grin on the planet & the envy of all my friends! |

Offline | Not a real 'Barginn' any more, as you'll have to remove the film from the front windows. From 1st Jan 2004 virtually all front passenger window tints are illegal... http://www.mini2.com/forum/showthrea...t=50241&page=2 ...all you are allowed is the slight tint that the MINI glass has from the factory plus a clear security film.  |
