The photo below was taken around 8am and the camera is taken from south east looking towards north west. So should I out in mirror tint with 15% light allowed (Bunnings)?

Bricks expected by end of week. I'm still to find 2 more lights after I found my benchtop lights! Yay only took me 6 months! I have found flooring as well... National tiles just came out with vinyl planks due to popularity and at a decent price too at $20.50/sqm!

Still have defects to fix but not show stoppers. The inspector said that G Developments have been really good when he has dealt with them previously and that they always repair any defects. Compared to my colleague's Builders, my colleague referred me to the inspectors and told me how they argued with the builder on his behalf. I didn't understand what happens if I pass the defect list on, what happens next, how will I know they repaired it to standard? He explained that they either repair or not, but if something goes wrong down the track and I have the report to indicate the defect was known, I will be covered legally (give it to my insurance to deal with I guess). So for $400 it bring peace of mind.
