Which tint is best and value for money?

Hi all,

I'm new here, will be getting my Avanza tomorrow. Just want to knw which tinting is best. Currently I have already surveyed Eco Tint Ray Barrier (RM1800), Eco Tint normal (RM900+), V-Kool (RM2800). :unsure:

Is the price reasonable? Also I saw some Avanzas on the road which has near-black tinting on their 3rd row windows. Where to get that? Is it safe? If look from rearview mirror, can we see clearly? Any other recommendations? Also, where to get the wide window visors?

Out of topic question: How to join this club and where to get stickers and stuff?

Thanks in advance! :D

I car tint is green colour for all window except my wind screen, using solar guard. Not gold dust type and less reflective under hot sun. Also a pair of crystal number plate, all in for about RM800.

Normally front windscreen tint the sales person will advice you to use a good 1 which the price range 200 to 300 sometimes more.... but as for my advice, better go to place which gives warranty, places like rike cool or aircoll ect....... Price is quite affordable :)

Mine did in accesories shop cause i am regular there. So choice is yours. :D

ok somewhere nex week may post it here...
my best suggestion if you want to do double layer...
u may use this mixture..

80% + 40% or 60% + 60%

althought mathematically is 120% but actually its differ..

Remember the JPJ-rule 70-50.
70% of Visible Light should be able to pass through the front and 50% should be able to pass through the rest of the windows.
