Use 3M instead... My car is not hot under the sun for half day... I got the sample tinting with me as they provided.

mind sharing the spec of the 3M tint, esp the infra red rejection? laugh.gif

at the same time, TS might want to add in some more reference

http://asia.vtec.net/Engines/LSERIESG2/index.html
(might give a rough idea how much new city's km/l)

and some review
http://asia.vtec.net/Reviews/3GCityFirst/index.html

tillerman,
thanks for the feedback! laugh.gif
tint
it could be the vkool installation was not really proper, causing the heat not rejected well or the tint is yet to be fully functional ?

FC wise
we should be looking at 18km/L, at least... (referring to TOV's technical review of L15A)

hi guys,

since some of us already receiving NHC and some are still waiting, i guess one thing we as new owner need to decide on tinting. based on feedback i've seen here :

vkool quality degrading (some case)
vkool getting rusty stain after 5 years (found feedback in other forums)
therefore, asking you guys on the tinting choice you had planned.

what i have here

vkool elite (94% infrared rejection) RM2200 (quote by SA)
vkool elite (94% infrared rejection) RM1950 (quote by one forumer here)
ecotint raybarrier (95% infrared rejection) RM1500 (quote by one forumer here)
3M safetint (99% infrared rejection) RM2000 (based on ZeroSP input)

i'm looking at ecotint, but also wanted to know other brand like rikecool, aircool and etc.

is there any other option to be considered?

AAM also have something like captor, named Smart tracker.

AAM Smart Tracker - RM1728 ( GPS ) ( annual fee RM270).

There are few pros and cons of GPS, GSM and RF, but if have money, can take the Captor RF/GPS/GSM.

GSM gives u a pinpoint accuracy but depending on telco signal
RF gives better coverage but not pin point accuracy, (need a ground patrol with homing devices)
GPS? according to AAM brochure, 5 meter accuracy, but haven't read about GPS signal coverage.

I did mine CR70 at the same location at RM1,300 at the same location, with the receipt of RM 2,300. coz SA did not take any comm from this. So depending on your negotiation skills. I even doubt did the SA gave me the fake 3M, So I went to this shop to verify. According to them, mine was the 1st customer of this gen of city for them. So they recognize my car.

rm1300 for 99.7% heat rejection? for all 6 windows, using CR70? that is really cheap....even better bargain than the ecotint ray barrier.

From Honda Dealer Penang. The original price is rm4750, but my SA told me that for this special period, it will be halved to 2000++ only. they give u front under, side under, rear under n trunk spoilers. I wonder if they throw in door visor as well...  unsure.gif
*
if it is the original modulo, abs material. rm2000++ is worth it i guess...considering the material is ABS...
