Window Tint Done

Just in time for the Flagstaff/Williams/Grand Cayon run I finally got the windows tinted. Had the tint the front windows 15%. I may add to the factory tint a little later on all the bacl windows. This weekend I also hope to have the chrome around the doors redone. The first time it did not take very good In due to the heat I think. This time I added some 3M glue to the back and so far the trial door has held just fine. I hope to have the speakers upgraded before I go to Williams.

Did the 15% make the front windows match the back ones?

Looks like that is as close as you will get without going darker. I am wait a few days for the "haze" to go away and see. Others that have had it done will probally know better.

I had a hard time finding an exact match when I had my front windows done. One can't tell from the outside, but once inside, one can see a little bit of a color difference. It's not too bad though.

Other folks here said (if I'm not mistaken) they put 20% on the front windows and it's almost a perfect match for the rear windows.. I'm not positive but I think it says right on the back windows that they are 20% tinted... ??????? I put 5% on my back windows.. you can't see in them at all I like the "privacy" .. I have 20% to put on the front windows but I haven't done it yet cuz I'm cursed and get pulled over every time I tint the front winds.. it's illegal here in MI. to tint the fronts. Some folks never get pulled over but I do every time... I'm gonna try it anyway.

Yeah took advantage of the 0% financing. She was itching for one since Bristol. Then she had to go and lose her job three day later!

You can see the pics here or in my gallery.

Glad to here you got the pics.

The tribal thing you like on my windshiled, go to c28.com, they're having a closeout sale on a lot of their windw stickers. Got me a bunch of them!!
