Hey there Lxuser, welcome to the forums, I'm pretty new at this too.

I got my LX 3 door last year with the windows tinted by Sentinal. I can't think what percentage tint it is, but it's pretty dark. I know they have a warranty on their work for years too, so I won't have to worry about bubbling or anything.

I'm from Sydney, don't even know who opperates where you are, but I'm sure somebody on the forum can help ya.

I'm getting a WQ 06 Zetec in June, my dealer told me that he's gonna tell Sentinal to push the tinting to the point of being barely legal. Which will be awesome 'cause the Zetec is black!

Welcome, finally someone else with a white Fiesta, I can't help too much with your tint, I've always found the bigger dealers a bit more reliable though.

Agree, tinting is something I'd leave to somebody quite reputable, we all see cars cruisin around with dodgy tinting...

Welcome,

I think you're probably the first Adelaide person with a Fez on the forums. Cant help you with the tint as I dont know who trades in SA otherwise I would.

Hope you come to like the Fez forums, as Its a pretty good resource for newbies with Fiesta's. Enjoy the car, congrats on the purchase.

Lets see some pics.

-Dan

First one? Not quite! I got my tinting done pre-delivery. It might be worth giving your dealer a call and seeing what they can do. I'm pretty stoked with the quality of mine. It came with Ming stickers, but whether that's the brand or the company, I'm not quite sure.
