Rep Power: 0 you know what, the b!tches went around it cause they were too lazy to take the deck out...so I said I'm not gunna pay and they said they would book me in again and do it PROPERLY...sucks too be them, they should have done it right the first time...I think they were just pissed off at the fact my mom hooked me up with a sweet @ss deal...I only paid $125 for the tints and strip...suckers...and OMG, my tint strip goes almost half way down my windshield...it is sick...it was so dark inside my car today I had to turn on my lights so I could read the speedo...[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
CUE...how long have you had your tints, if you have a lifetime warranty you should start picking at the back tint so it looks like it's peeling off and get it redone PROPERLY...

Rep Power: 0 well I have lifetime warranty on them and I've seen a couple of scratches on the back window and driver side so they said they'll do it and this time they'll cover up the rear brake light.

Rep Power: 0 I could refer you to this guy... in HAMILTON.
But he does A++ job. He did about 12 or 13 cars for me.. very high quality film, and extremely precise job. almost looks OEM tinted. he does the back properly, no cutting job here. lots of different variety of tint colour to chose from, from jet black, to charcole black, to bronze, etc... he actually tints corporate buildings, but does cars on side. usually does 2-3 cars a weekend.

Rep Power: 0 5% all around and windshield not too bad at all. They did my whole back window, because he told me straight up if I didn't have a spoiler the 3 rd brake light would have to be cut out for legal reasons here in Arizona I believe. But yeah I lucked out having the spoiler when I bought the car. But yeah I only have a lifetime warranty on my back 3 windows and window strip but oh well my dealer will cover my front 2 windows if they have issues.
But yeah you got a good deal and don't let them get away with not doing that back window completely

Rep Power: 0 haha...OEM window tinting is done at Apple Auto Glass...exactly where I got mine done...[IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG][IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]
For anyone who pays the dealer upwards of $300 for OEM tints...you got ripped off big time...even if you don't get the hook up I did you can get lifetime warranty tints for around $200 tax incl...

Rep Power: 0 Cool.. thats some nice deal you got.. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]
I found some place on Ottawa St. that will do it for $170 including taxes.. But I don't know where to go to get a Decal.. I'll try Tint Shop.. This place said the will put on some Black Onyx tint, I think its 25%... a buddy of mine got it on his Probe and it looks nice.. You said you got 5%? That must be pretty dark??
