Looking for pictures with a tint job

Can someone please show me the URL with pictures of tinted TL's? I can swear that I saw a page with 20-30 pictures of tinted TL's, a couple of days ago (in this forum) but I cannot find it again.

Apologize for starting a new thread.

Could it be the Show Me Your Tint Thread?

Thanks guys. That helped a lot. I'm going to get my windows tinted this weekend and also know a place where they do a good job. Had it not been for this forum, I wouldn't have known about the moleskin add-on.

I am from Ohio.

Good deal The TL looks great with tint. What % are you going with? I run 15% myself. Yea, no moleskin in Ohio, I don't think. You ordered it from Florida? Anyway, hope it goes well. Post up pics after it's done

My moleskin did not arrive on time. So its going to be next weekend now. Yes. Ordered it from FL. I went 15%-5%-5% on my 03-TL and can barely see at night. My 05-TL is one of those dark-grey/anthracite exteriors + black interior, so I'm thinking about going 35% this time. What do you think?

LoveMyTL-S - Thanks for your help particularly and thanks to all Acurazine members. I got 35% all around and made sure the rear-quarters were done right.

You guys rock.

I know this has been discussed before but I can't seem to find the info.

I just got tints on my ride, and the small windows in the rear doors. My tints aren't all the way in behind the rubber. How can I get it tinted all the way? Do you have to take off the glass?

Thanks.

No, you have to pull up on the rubber to get the tint up in there. Make sure it's really clean first.

Yes, the moleskin really works. I've had my tint on for almost a year now. No scratches. I did a bit of glue from the moleskin but it comes off easily with Goo Gone. I found a cheaper place to get the moleskin:

Thanks for answering my question. I'm gonna take it back and insist that it's done the way I want it done. Also, he cut around the third brake light and I think it looks retarded. I want to get that re-done too. Anyone know hot to remove the third brake light housing?

You install moleskin on the inside of the windows so the tint doesnt scratch when moving the window up and down. It is a very easy DIY, but most good tint shops will do it for you, just ask
