You can go to Solartint in Damansara Uptown. They have the best handiwork so far and they do have roll coil mat as well where they can custom cut to spec.

Just get the quotation. Coil mat is around RM 240 before GST.

Tint. Front 95% IR rejection, others 85% = RM1600
Tint. Front 95% IR rejection, others 75% = RM1000.

Do you guys think the price is reasonable? I care mostly on the heat rejection. Do you think 75% and 85% will make a significant difference?

Thank you.

How about the TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejected)? What and brand?

For coil mat, I just got mine today @ RM140.

Solartint.

I get to know another brand Goldirex, which is much cheaper. Do anyone come across this brand? Of quality?

The total solar energy rejected will indicate for heat rejection as well?

You can get the explanation here:

Visible light transmitted
The percentage of visible light that passes directly through filmed glass: the higher the number,the lighter the film.
Total solar energy rejected
The percentage of total solar energy rejected by filmed glass. The higher this value,the less solar heat energy is transmitted by the glass.
Visible light reflection
The percentage of visible light reflected back from the glass.
Infrared rejected *
The percent of light rejected by the film on the glass.Infrared light is primarily responsible for the heat you feel when driving. Infrared Rejected is measured on IR wavelength ranges 900-1000nm
UV rejection
The percentage of ultraviolet light that is rejected by filmed glass. Ultraviolet light contributes sunburn and other harmful skin conditions from the sun and to the fading and deterioration of fabrics and leather.
Glare reduction
The percentage by which visible light is reduced by the addition of film.

Personally, I would get some well known brand for that price. Those house brand tint can state whatever figure they want, and it is difficult for us to verify it.

The technician just told me the TSER is (IR rejection - 35%). If the IR rejection is 89%, then the TSER is 54%.

That's quite reasonable with a high heat rejection. If you have the budget, go for it especially the sides.

The -35% from IR Rejection sound BS to me. Maybe you can ask in the link below for more details. More expert there that can help:

Hi Everyone,

I've just gotten the V Spec and installed American Sounds Monoblock and Subwoofer.
However, the subwoofer sound is quite soft as compared to my old car.

Does anyone experience this ? I'm still using the original head unit. As per my car accessories guy, this is due to the head unit being able to tune the subwoofer to have a more subtle bass.

No wires were cut during the installation process.. The subwoofer's source is connected to the speakers' wire and not the headunit.

i got it at a random accessory shop from Taiwan, it is meant for their Polo Sedan. I just grab one since it looks like can fit our terminal. Pricey though, about RM30 after convert. But look nice, i like it cuz covered our negative terminal nicely.

Total Solar Energy Rejected (TSER) is a metric that describes the total amount of
solar energy that is blocked, or rejected, from passing through the window.
1) visible
+
2) UV
+
3) IR rejection number is metric about heat from the infrared.

seriously, think about this.
TSER is all bullshitz from a normal consumer point of view
1) visible light transmission should be within the legal limit set by JPJ (choose urself, legal or illegal)
2) UV are almost always 100% or 99% rejected even cap ayam tint.
3) IR - This, this this this this!!! This is the one that makes me feel hot inside the car.

the most important to me is 3)!!! IR rejection percentage.
and of course budget, RM$$$ tongue.gif

High TSER supposed to be good
but feel hot inside car
very dark tint (non JPJ compliance) with LOW IR rejection.

Low TSER supposed to be bad
but feel cool inside car
light tint (JPJ compliance) with HIGH IR rejection.

so there you go,
those ppl who are concerned about TSER rather than IR is delusional. rclxs0.gif

Guys measured my tyre tread just now.. Car around 25k mileage..
Rear still ok..
Front for both tyre, inner thread have more thread, middle less abit, outer more less abit.. Inner to middle maybe 5percent diff, and middle to outer side 5 percent.. I wonder is it normal as stock camber adjustment?

Anyway, anyone change to 15" sport rim with 7jj? Can I know how much offset if u don't want the rim come out from chassis? All type of 15" offset will not hit fender /sagat rite? Thanks...
