Sorry about this. I was just informed by John that the prices do NOT include taxes. Also the hood kit covers 20". Sorry once again for the mistake.

Count me in for Front Bumper.

I'm in Oshawa, but can meet you guy in Richmond Hill when you set a date.

 

More details on the tint from Cybercity Auto...

The type they use is LLUMAR . I'm not a tint expert so if any of you know if this is a good product, in the car it goes :D

They do the tints for the MPV club as the manager Benny tell me.

As for the price, here is whats happening..

$170/car taxes included if pay in cash. Booking is tight for time as the weather is getting better. Anyways, they can only do one car per day anyways.

I'm planning to do my car and my wife's Mazda 3 Sport there. If anyone is interested, please tell ASAP so I can give them your info to get that price instead of the $190-200 they were asking before.

Once again, if you know of a better place and with better pricing and product, I would be more than happy to look into it.

THANKS!

3M People

I had asked John from Shieldpro about dates and times etc. Here is his answer:

"Depends on he weather the week previous, we might call up the people and meet with them at their house after they finish work or we might go on Saturday morning. The cars have to be washed. Cash and cheque ok for the discount. If the weather keeps up like this, we can start next week. We would like to do the one guy who wants the hood/fender mirror first, then the bumper guy then the rest. I like to get the small jobs out of the way first. Get each one to contact me and then we can get started."

So here is John's contact info:

After asking around Cybercity Auto turns out to be a good place to get things done to your car.

FYI If you want your car tinted soon, call and book a time. The weekends for this month are all gone, so that is why I will be getting my cat tinted this coming Wed at Cybercity Auto.

Call Benny at 905-472-7781 and tell him you are part of the group of the RX8's for the tint job. Enjoy! :D

I call John on Thursday last week and talked to him but he was doing an install, so I called back and left him a msg to call me. I'm going to call him tomorrow if I don't here from him today.

 

Hi hobbes, so tell us how your tint turned out?

What brand and product did you use?

Are there choices of brands and products?

I am unsure which one is good, metallic, ceramic... etc.

Can't wait to hear from you. Thanks.

 

My tints...

They are Llumar ATR. You can check out their website for detail info.

Now that I have my tint, I don't feel too naked as I cruise the streets. For me, the 20% for the back is dark enough, but if you really want to go to the limo tints, you can, but night driving will be most interesting. My fronts 35%.

I met the tint installer and he's a happy go lucky guy and takes pride in his work. He wasn't happy with my driver side window and redid it twice at no extra charge. The inside of my car was the same as when I dropped it off.

So now I have to wait min. 4 days to open the windows, thank god for the sunroof, but will not open for a week or more if I can. They give 10 days to ensure everything is fine. If not they will redo anything that goes wrong. Plus there's a lifetime warranty from the manufacture as well, so that's all good.

If you are interested on the quality of the service, call Benny (manager) as Cybercity Auto @ 905-472-7781 and ask to see some tint jobs being done on the weekend. If I'm right they still doing tint jobs for the MPV club people. If you want to get your cars done, tell Benny that your part of the RX8 club, the price is $170 cash, or you'll be taxed

Enjoy!

Thanks hobbes, good to hear your car turned out well.

Isn't 20% below the legal limit??? I thought Ontario is 30 or 35% limit? (from the installer than did my last car).

Edit: Just looked up the legal limit

http://www.iwfa.com/iwfa/consumer_in...vincelaws.html

looks like front window limit is "vague", and back windows is "any". I don't like the word vague, does that mean law enforcement can do anything they want?

Edit2: cool, just looked at Llumar's website

in the upper right corner is a little picture of a red RX8.

 

Whats happening with the 3M Film?

Well after leaving messages for John and emails, and I know others have as well, it seems that we are all in a waiting pattern. :o

So all I can say is keep calling him or find other sources that will give that kind of discount.

My paintchips are multiplying bit by bit and soon I'll probably lean towards getting the car repainted when the time comes instead of the 3M film, but we'll see.

If anyone has contacted John, please tell me what is happening, I would like to know what is going on myself. Thanks!

Am also interested in tint and the 3M. Did a few calls about the tinting. Prices ranged from $200 to $300. Some metallic tints, some regular. Sounds like metallic would be best as claims to increase heat rejection by 50% BUT also heard may affect the radio reception because of the antenna in the rear window.

Let me know about pricing and location.

 

Rick T - call Benny (manager) as Cybercity Auto @ 905-472-7781 for tints. It cost $170 taxes includes if pay in cash. They use the Llumar tints which are metallic tints. For more info on the tint, look back on this thread for links. BTW you need to talk to Benny and tell him that your part of the RX8 club group rate. Just say the guy with the grey RX8 sent you there. It's day 12 and nothing wrong with my tints. As for the radio reception, I don't personally feel there is a difference. Have fun!

I got my car tinted at Cybercity Auto last week and I must say that I am very pleased with the result. The tint guy took his time to do it right and only cost me $170 cash. :-)

 

I just gave Benny at CyberCity a call to set up an appointment to tint, but he said he is no longer doing tints anymore.

Reasons are that he is not making money on it, and the installer that comes to do the work takes up time and space of the shop. So it was a business decision to stop offering it.

Oh well, back to the search!

 

AcuraEL - Wow really? I'm sorry to hear that. If I hear of any other place that is good I will post it here. I will give a call to Benny later this week to find out what happened. If you wish, ask for Axel, he's one of the business partners who own Cybercity, but I don't know if that will help or not.

Anyone got the 3M done? I've left messages for John but with no answer. It's been a while, so I'm probably giving up on it, but if there is a place that a bunch of you are going to get it done, I wouldn't mind dropping by to take a peak.

Hobbes: I've given up on the 3m thing right now. I've already got a few stone chips and will save the money and invest it in painting the front bumper at a much later date. For now I'll keep it waxed and stick to my getting out of the way of larger vehicles for the time being.

 

So what is happening with the tint at Cybercit Auto...

Benny has explained to me that he was losing profit when getting cars tinted at the garage. When a car is being tinted he couldn't do any other work for other customers so that is why he decided to stop. He also mentioned to me that if he finds a solution to this that he will contact me and work something out for the rest of those who are still interested.

What to now? Seek out as a group for great tints places and price haggle if you want the windows to be tinted before the sun of Summer hits.

Since I didn't hear from anyone who got work done for the 3M film, as well as no news from John, I can only assume that no one in the original group has gotten it done. If you did, please post the results of the workmenship and so forth. Though I have opted not to get it done, others I believe would be interested in this info, thanks!

Holy cow, after waiting so long for John to do something about the clearbra, I just gave up. Then out of NOWHERE, big as rock chips the paint on my hood near the front. And it was deep. Now i'm screwed

 

CrackerJax - That's painful, but not impossible to fix. Either via a body shop or a do-it-yourselfer. Do a search for paint chips and you'll find info on how to use compound to fill it up and how to repaint it. Either that or get a body kit and a new hood. Hope that helps.

the timing just sucks that's all. i drive the same stretch of highway everyday avoiding stone chips, but wouldn't you know it, the day i give up trying to find the guy is the day i get the chip. A minor chip i can live with, but this ding left an ever so small impression. People say the can't really notice the dent, but i KNOW it's there and it's like a huge pimple on my forehead that people are pretending not to notice out of kindness.

Maybe i'm over reacting, but they do say your first chip is going to be the most painful, and whoever told me that was RIGHT.

 

hey juss came on this thread.....was wondering....so the 3M flim is complete invisable? so it seems like there is nothing on the car?? and if i add a body kit to the 8, can i still put on the film?
thanks!
