Blinging innit! You do frequent Bradford a lot Martyn. Are you sure that you really work there and you are not just there admiring the vehicles?

I was talking to the tint guy about wrapping and that i just don't get it. He said he does that aswell but i think that i will resist  59 TD4e XS in galway green

Glad it's sorted and about time with that spolier

I know Andy. I thought I would have swapped the car by the time the spoiler was painted but all done now.

Thanks for recommending Steve. He is very good and a nice chap to talk to. He is into his Land Rovers  59 TD4e XS in galway green

hi

looks great

what percentage tint is that? and was it pre cut to fit or did he cut it to shape on your car? 1995 P38 now dead

arm rest pack

Thanks He said that it was 5%. I wanted the darkest which was the 5% but asked his advice first. He said that it would look fine on my green but he wouldnt have recommended the one i had on a black as it may have looked a bit van ish. If he'd have said that the 5% wouldnt have looked right, i'd have taken his advice but i was happy when he said the one i wanted would look fine

It was on a roll and he cut it to fit. He put it on the outside first and used a heat gun on it. He cut all around the shape of the dark bits that are already on the window and then put it on the inside. I just thought that they slapped it on the inside and cut around the edge of the window
That's why he does it and i don't ha

It was interesting to watch  59 TD4e XS in galway green

Hi Annie

did he remove the rear door cards to gain access to the door windows, just wondered as its been mentioned on the forum before, but can't think why

Yes he did toeknee. Well he loosened them to remove the rubber at the top of the door card and put the film down  59 TD4e XS in galway green

.... and did he tell you to keep your 'mitts' off the windows for a few days, no polishing, wiping etc.

Yes, thanks EY, he did Thanks for the heads up though.

Just been into the garage to make sure it still looks cool. How sad is that

I'm glad i saw the other thread about someone's missus who pressed too hard on her fob and the windows came down. I didnt know about that. Could have been a disaster  59 TD4e XS in galway green

it's work honestly Annie ! Our Office is in BD3, and I've been there for the last 3 weeks because I try not to travel in January and February, the best thing about commuting through Bradford is that it makes you realise that vehicular restraint and good taste are indeed a virtue and I'm lucky to have them, although it's very difficult to ignore somone who has wrapped a 60 grand motor in tinfoil on the plus side I've just come in from a night out there that ended with a brilliant curry in a rather grubby establishment, still i've got a break for the next 3 weeks London, Antwerp, and Valencia are the next jobs
