Cool Tinted

I got her tinted today 35% looks really dark from outside nice view out tho.

Now I told them i wanted a good job over the defroster and when i arrived it looked kinda strange, but they assured me apon drying it would be right, and that if I dont like it they would put a new piece on. They mention that sometimes they have to sand the defroster but
I would have to sign off on it :-(



damn i gotta make a sig ;-)


oh yeah went to dealer to get some plastic wrap removed and while I was there I told parts dude about ebay deal on A-Spec seems they have no problem matching.

Offered me 3816 +700 installation

Isn't it normal that tint films requires days to closely adhere to the windows?

Thanks.

Wow, that's a great deal on the A-Spec kit. Even the install is a good deal. Now just to rob a bank and approach my dealer with that news

Good Luck on keeping your tint scratch free. when you roll your glass down for the first time, only roll it down 1/4 of the way. so if it scratches you still have a chance to save your tint by installing the moleskin channel liner

5%? dont you think youl get a ticket for 5%? i mean 35% is not that dark even 20%. , but 5% wont the cops bother you for that? they might not enforce that law, but if a cop sees 5% i think hes ganna do something.

nice whip man. i've got an NBP as well and i love the dark tint. i definitely want something in the 5-15% range. the cops can give me all the tickets they want, i'm keeping the dark stuff.
