That's a bargain!
is it really?
Frak no!
But why would you get a quote from a dealer on Window Tinting? It's just as crazy as someone who actually buys the paint/fabric/leather/protection/pixie dust from a dealer!
Cut out the middle-man and go straight to the people that specialise in what you need. You'll find that the quote for tint will cost (less than) half what the dealer has quoted.
Ok, but i was hoping to do it prior to delivery...
I've been quoted $400.00 from tintacar Keilor, but they dont state what VLT,UVA+B,% and so forth...I need to know what im getting in regards to protection and quality..
So go to a tint place that can tell you the film that they're installing.
But then, if you must have it done before delivery, you'll just have to accept that you'll pay double for the privilege.
the only reason to get window tinting pre-delivery is if you're doing novated lease. most accessories are not claimable under most novated lease agreement unless they're included in the purchase price, pre-delivery...
but again, you'll have to weigh the benefit of having charged double for windows tinting vs the tax advantage of salary sacrifice scheme associated with novated lease, to some it may not matter but to others it may be better off to pay out of pocket post delivery.
if you're not doing any novated lease, forget about getting window tint pre-delivery they're just not worth it at all, do it afterwards will save you heaps and heaps of money. Tint-a-car charges about $299 for a whole car, could be less if the car already have rear privacy window and you're not fuss on having the tint matched all around and do just the fronts.
