Yeppee, getting my front windows tinted same % as the back one's.
Spoken to Tint R and have booked it for the next available weekend which is 22nd Feb but sadly it's after the Southern and Midland Meet....

so you guy's will not be able to see during then
Anyway only getting it done by Tint R, bcoz of all the lovely comments said about them and by now they probably know Lexus in & out...so I rather take it there even though it will cost me lot more on petrol

Mine's being done on Thurs 13th Feb. To be honest, I didn't mind having it done during the week as it was an excuse to have the day off from work.

Still got lots of holiday to take from last year, and un-officially I can take them this year
Also, I should be around on the 22nd, (unless I have to work) so can also meet you at Tint-R at 1pm.

It maybe worth checking with your current insurers.

I just got a nasty surprise from mine (Elephant.co.uk). They told me that I won't be insured if I have my car tinted.

I've just got off the phone from my insurance group and they have confirmed that if I get ANY tints done to my car, I WILL NOT BE COVERED.
It's a good job my insurance is expiring at the end of the month. But the saddest part of it all is that I will have to postpone my booking at Tint-R next week until early March
I wish I hadn't told them now. I'm tempted to get them done as planned anyway, but knowing my luck... don't know what to do, I'm well cheesed off
I was so looking forward to having them done
Mr-Lex
February 17, 2003, 1:54 pm
Right gang...22nd Feb is coming up...so are we still meeting up? Nothing has changed, the car is booked for 1pm.
Anyway let me know and any other further suggestions that we can do...(obviously still lunch a MUST)

February 17, 2003, 4:34 pm
I shall be around at the weekend.
Ruddington is miles away from Tint R. I think it's around 5-6 miles from Nottingham City Centre. We could meet up, either at Ruddington or even in the city centre somewhere.
