You did, yes, but they left a little strip of the rear quarter window untinted.



Look at the top and left of the rear quarter window

Yup, just let them know you're not happy they didn't tint behind the seal and it sticks out like a sore thumb

I'm sure they'll just retint it especially since the tint hasn't fully cured yet.

2 mods 1 day.Quick update, I painted my stock rims gunmetal with dupli color wheel paint. I thought it would be too much grey, but I really like the results. Also finally installed RDX caliper covers. Sorry for the pictures its on my iphone 5. I will have better pictures later in the week after I install my Type S grills.

Dude, you might have to step up your wheels game. Your TL is looking like it's ready for some aftermarket wheels.

Thanks, A-Spec kit is getting ordered this friday. I like the Type S rims a lot. Might look for some clean A-Spec rims though.
