Oh sweet:D, are you a mobile tinting service?.. Just sounds like you are. I drive down to Freo now and then, but i dont drive anymore south than that very often. So it my be difficult to get to Rockingham. But hey if i could get it done is Osborne Park, that'll be great. So its $260 for what set of tints. Are they similar to those Ultima ones i was talking about earlier?

@kndkris:
Did you happen to get your Liberty reprayed a new white colour because that white is very very bright. Looks a few shade brighter than mine. Or is it the combination of the taking the photo during a glommy day and the new tints:cool:

Not sure, the paint is very good on it, i think it has been garaged for a looong time and the guy was very pedantic about cleaning and polishing etc..

Hey Mike - I should have got Ruby Scoo done while I was over there, would have made the sun-beaten ride home a little more comfortable!

Kndkris: The fuel guage thing - that's a subaru quirk to make sure you never run out of fuel unless you really push it. My L does the same thing, I've had it drop completely off the E mark before filling up, I somehow managed 63 litres to a 60 litre tank :???: I also managed 730km in one tank - Adelaide to woodend without visiting a servo inbetween! Can't do that anymore since the MPFI motor is cooked.

Cheers

Got round to checking the fuel economy, quite happy with it.
I am getting 8.7KM/L or 11.25L per 100KM's whichever people prefer to use.
This is on BP 95 petrol full city driving, to and from work using the air con for a fair bit of it.

Also when my car is showing dead empty i have still have 15L in the tank. using my trip counter as my fuel gauge from now on. I could expect 550 plus km's to a full tank out of town which is great.
