Default Best Place/Price to get windows tinted in Melb?

Hi guys,

As the title says I'm after a window tint for the XR but struggling to make up my mind as to where to go. What places have good prices, and what places are actually any good?

Did a search of FForums but couldnt find much.

I've had work done by Premier before, and was very unhappy - turned purple within 4 years and couldn't get it repaired even though it was under warranty!

I've used Autoshade, Nepean Hwy Brighton on 4 cars and he is fantastic. Only a little shop and not very flash, but does all the prestige cars for dealers on the Nepean Hwy strip. His advice has always been spot on. Probably not the cheapest around, but does a top quality job, with great quality materials

My sister got her windows tinted with the tint professor. Not long after getting this done, there were a couple of tiny little bubbles on the driver and passenger side windows at the top. The rest of the tint looks awesome, just hasn't got around to bringing it back to get fixed as they do have a lifetime guarantee.
