mine is black beauty, but without the security film, that's why it is cheaper. mine is el cheapo car and as a dude, I don't really have any handbags for people to smash in. Although now I actually have a sling bag that I carry along with me everyday.

Apologies for not reading all 405 pages of this thread. Looking to tint an upcoming car (currently waiting list). What’s the coolest (highest TSER rating) reputable brand one can get now that still passes JPJ guidelines?

Budget around 3k, but willing to exceed if it’s worthwhile. I’m in JB, so if anyone got shop recommendations, even better. SmartTag compatibility not important (in JB seldom use toll highway, so TnG enough) but must pass maps/gps and autogate remote test.

Thanks in advance.

Used rhinepro for almost 4 years. Cheap (got mine done for less than 1k)

Pros:
Good heat rejection, felt really cooling
My shop got quite good workmanship, no bubbles up till now
Cheap

Cons:
The 70vlt had a blue tint that i didn't like. Obstruct visibility during rain. I went back to shop, they say they never had anyone complain this issue. But nevertheless willing to redo for me. Since they say tint no issue, i also dun doubt them, i jz retint to 50%vlt (since all other windows are fine.) Not jpj compliant but ok la, better than poor visibility during rain (strong light dispersion)
Color fade really quickly. Mine is almost illegal type of dark esp at night. In 2 years, faded a lot. In 4 years, almost completely gone d
Heat rejection also will decrease, but not by alot. Maybe about 20-30% after 4 years.

I complained mine too, front windscreen, the windscreen itself disperse abit light, plus the 70vlt BB, having hard time to get clear view during certain lighting condition.... most notable in the bright afternoon or night time dark road with those bright led street lamps or sodium lamp.....
The view is like those old cheapo smartphone TFT LCD screen with poor contrast ratio... Even my mum also said the same "why your car look out thru front side windows is sharper clearer view than front windscreen ah?" sweat.gif sweat.gif

They claimed no owner complaint b4 haha but they still replaced for me without much delay... i told them replace with darker la since front windows is 50% VLT hopefully solve my problem..
After replace it, a few days later when it cured indeed clearer driving in the noon..

BB tint hv a hint of light blue colour, if it is slightly brownish prolly will help on vision... i prefer slight brownish tint like my previous car although it is generic in house tinted film.... nod.gif nod.gif
If really go for BB again, i will hv the VLT as follows: 50-35-20-20 thumbsup.gif , if you have sharp eye at night prolly u can go darker than my preferences.
My current tint is 50-50-35-35 rolleyes.gif yawn.gif

Dark tint? Sure kena at JPJ roadblock. As for police roadblock, the odds are better and usually they only stop cars with tint where u can’t see the driver from outside.
