I wouldnt have thought that a coloured film would have been legal on any front windows? Dartz did a yellow film for autos, but how you will get some i dont know?

i am not sure on the law of colours in tinting but the gila film i seen years ago was very little tint just a see through colour. only want front sides done and all rears.

Yeah not sure, i would have thought that a yellow colour would have to be less than 75%VLT? If you think about it a 70% film, theres still very little "tint" to it but it still would be illegal on most fronts when you take into account the factory tint level of the glass. Not sure about it just my thoughts

What was it like to shrink, as type R's are C11nts at the best of times?

with the film witch is not an auto film i found it hard enough to shrink but with normal auto film they are ok. i always remove the spoiler on them witch comes off easy. just bring my anchor line down very slightly. but its been getting me lots of attention although so far they are all looking for coloured tints instead of black lol.

Get some sunnies to match, a sliver all in one catsuit and set off some liquid nitrogen when you open your door, that would be cool!

The aim was not to look nice, but to draw attention to the car like every ad. It does not matter whether good or bad, it is important to focus the mind towards a particular subject. This has the effect, and that's mine opinion.

To the film company? to the car? as there is no advertising on it, so makes it completely and totally pointless. Also if it did have an advert on it , i think it would look cheap. No offence to whover owns the honda but this just my own opinion, as i have already said i think it looks %&$#

Definitely is something different, I wouldn't like it on my car but I think it does exactly what you want it to do and attracts attention

Difficult one as it may only appeal to a smaller market, unless that market is a big one where you are, just hope VOSA dont stop and ask you where you got it done

yea signage would help i think, fancy getting a plotter if i get a chance and learn on my own car. everybody seems to ask no matter what they drive but a lot of boy racers do ask too. but i look at it as customers are customers no matter what they drive lol
