Tinting My T-tops

[JappyBeast]

To go with my new paint I want to tint the T-Top glass... whats the best way?

Get em done propper?

Buy that naff looking film and try it myself?

Buy that spray on stuff?

It shouldnt be that hard as you can take the glass out and do it indoors.

Cheers!

btw what kinda tint u lookin to get?

a full on black or colour coded to match the new "secret" colour of ur motor?

Surely it's going to be black then?

[JappyBeast]

Its gonna be black..

See.. the car is gonna be painted ***** and black.. :P

Anyone know roughly what the cost would be?

[ZeroBlade]

i would say VERY cheap if its just the t-bars fella.

u could even buy some of the film and have a go yourself if you have the time.

Like you said the t-bar's can be taken off, so can't be that hard can it?

Give it a go yourself......resonably flat glass so it's EASY to do!! I did mine myself with MIRROR tint and Im really happy with the results......can't fault it actually :)

Not easy!

The t-bar panels have the circular noble on them to fit the inserts and they are not flat. I tried it myself and got ****** off, will get local tinting company to do it.

I was thinking about the round bit the inserts attach to. I think I'll send them in.. at least I will know the job will get done!

Inserts?

[DeusMR2]

Inserts are the cardboard/interior coloured fabric bits that hook onto and cover the t-bars incase you dont want light shining through the roof. Makes it very cosy in cold weather :group-cuddles:

I might go to a scrappy see if i can pick up some of the tbar under covers as the clips are still there.
