Default Coloured Tinted Windows? Legal?

The other day I saw these very nice Tinted windows on a Blue FG. They were black at the top and it shaded into a light blue at the bottom. Looked very nice!

My question is - 1. Is this legal?
2. Does anyone know a place in the Eastern Melbourne area that does it?
3. Prices?

Thanks guys.
I'll get a picture up tomorrow if that helps

It's called mirror tint mate. Not sure on the legal side of things, but it's not my cup of tea.

the colour would not be a legal issue but there are restrictions on reflectivity. anything with more then 10% reflectivness is not legal.

another thing to consider is the quality and effectivness of the tint. a lot of the dressy type films are very low quality as far as the colour can fade away very quickly and also they may not do anything much to protect you from the sun. decide if you can afford to replace the tint in about a year or so.

You may well be pulled over by the fashion police.
