Full Version: Canberra Australia...

Had a custy buy a 2008 3 series BMW and I put 35% Carbon Suntek all round. (legal limit in oz)
She gets transfered to Canberra and takes the car over the government pits where their light meter clocked it at 29% (can get away with 30% usually). Having been over their pits myself I know their testing is performed in a dark old shed, and if they are using the same Light meter, its ancient!
Has anyone else experienced the same sort of problems specifically with Canberra, but I also hear South Ausralia can be the same?
We bought a brand new light meter so as soon as I get my hands on it I will be conducting a full T.S.I. (Tint Scene Investigation)

Gee you get around JJ. spit.gif
Remember the BMW has factory tint which when overlayed with a 35% VLT film throws all those required specs to the shitehouse.
ACT and SA are very strict on VLT laws.
Should have maybe fitted 50 on the fronts.

Hey Dev, hope all is well with you and yours, still working on the problem... yeah, will probably get a lighter film, I will know more once I fire up me new light meter!

I heard Tassie can be a problem pits too, does anyone move there though?

We bought a light meter, turns out 35% suntek carbon reads 29ish percent on our BMW's. Time to buy some 38%.....






For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
