CURRENT NSW WINDOW TINTING LAWS
New South Wales tint laws do not allow tinting front windshield. Front side windows may have 35% VLT tint. All windows behind driver may have 20% VLT.
Window tint laws in New South Wales (NSW) are very precise, easy to understand, and don’t leave much for interpretation. Front windshield tint is allowed only on top 10% of the window, or above the highest point swept by windshield wipers. This does not prohibit installing clear and transparent frost glazing or UV shields. Front side windows may have 35% VLT tint film applied. These include windows in front of, or immediate left or right of the driver seat. All windows behind driver seat may be tinted with at most 20% VLT.

WHAT IS LEGAL LIMIT WINDOW TINT?
Legal Limit for vehicle laws are different in certain territories and states.
Below are the details for the limits approved in New South Wales (NSW).
Windshield: Only uppermost 10% of the windshield may be tinted.
Front side windows: Must have more than 35% VLT.
Back side windows: Must have more than 20% VLT.
Rear window: Must have more than 20% VLT.
In New South Wales (NSW) windshields may only have a tinted strip on top, equaling to either 10% of total windshield area, or the portion of the windshield above the reach of windshield wipers, whichever is greater.
Front side windows, back side windows and rear window must not block more than 80% of total light, meaning it can have 20% VLT. Unless the vehicle has two rear view mirrors on both sides, 35% VLT is permitted.
Other NSW tint laws: Reflective or mirror-like tinted film is not permitted. Bubbled, damaged, discoloured or otherwise deteriorated film which impacts driver’s vision is not allowed. If side windows or rear window is tinted, the vehicle must have dual exterior rear view mirrors. Factory-made glass on windshields may have up to 70% VLT. No aftermarket tint is permitted besides the uppermost part. Vehicles first registered before 1 August 1994 also have 35% minimum VLT unless darker tint was already fitted. Trucks, vans, utility vehicles, or other similar vehicles designed to carry goods and where vehicle construction reduces the need to see through the rear window while driving have no VLT limits for tinting windows behind driver.

CARBON CERAMIC CXP
For enhanced performance demands and luxury vehicles, we recommend the CXP Series’ non-metal, nano-hybrid carbon technology.
No matter which series you choose to install, be confident in the tint’s ability to stand the test of time. It’s a non-reflective, rich black that’s backed by manufacturer’s limited lifetime warranty, including protection against fading. Blocking 99.99% of harmful UV rays.
CXP works hardest to maintain interior vehicle comfort, with a higher level of solar energy rejection. This translates to better heat rejection and glare reduction, which will be a priority for vehicle owners who spend more time on the road, are concerned about interior cracking and fading, or prefer to feel a more significant temperature difference after upgrading automotive glass with window tint.
