What brand/type of tiny did you guys go with? I'm looking into LLumar CTX 35% all around.

I would highly recommend LLumar CTX 30. I had my entire vehicle done about a month ago and it turned out perfectly! Really nice color, I swear the green/blue factory glass color is undetectable. Looks charcoal to me! And since it is a partial ceramic, the clarity looking from the inside out is much better than standard dyed IMO. It's dark out now but I will take a picture of mine tomorrow and post it.

Also check out my moleskin/felt install guide: https://acurazine.com/forums/third-g...od-diy-944883/

PS. The CTX 30 is technically listed at 33% VLT, but meters around 25-26 (legal in my state).

^Thanks, greatly appreciate it! My understanding is LLumar CTX is supposed to be pretty scratch resistant as well, right?

I think CTX is one of the most highly scratch resistant but our 3G TL's tend not to care. I have seen them scratch about every brand of tint out there (just do a search on this forum). Moleskin is a must! Pictures coming right up btw...

Why did you decide not to tint the sunroof? Has anyone else tinted the sunroof if so what's your opinion on it?
