Does anyone know of somewhere (prefer Sydney and Northern Beaches) that could do it?

I can post pictures if required

Interesting might have to hit him up, shame it might need to buy a spare set of lights first as the car is used everyday! Also looking for someone to tint my tail lights, DIY is so over rated!
