I have 20% in the rear and backseat triangles, 45% in the driver/passenger windows, and 70% on the windshield

Looks Good, It's amazing what a quality tint will do for the looks of a car! Price?

It's very steep but I only wanted the best for this car!!!

400$ for the rear, side, and front windshield, I got a 70% film on the windshield with a 20% strip on top

It's awesome because I feel like even though I tinted the car, visibility got better!!!! It's also very easy to see through the tint compared to some cheaper films

I have 20% all around and a 20% brow on the front. Not as bad at night as I thought either. I don't remember what brand my tint guy used but it comes with the same warrentees you have too.

On a side note: am I the only person who immediately thinks Atari when I see the jl audio logo?

I am the ultimate JL audio fanboy, and I happened to love my atari growing up, maybe my subconscious somehow linked the two :lol:

Damn dude have you heard of groupons...I could have gotten that done for less then $150 easy

not like these guys, this isn't the entry level wincos film I've experimented with multiple films in the past and this is by FAR the highest quality, I have noooo regrets about the money I spent

I paid 300 and I love how it turned out. Its definitely durable stuff if you do a close comparison to cheap tint

yeah it would have been 300 but the front windshield is what put it over the top a little, they had to measure the strip with the 20% cut it out, then match a 70% under the strip

I guessed that was what happened lol did you have the door window tint filed to the edge or does it have the standard gap

to the edge, it looks factory!!!! they didn't file it at all, you should see this guy's steady hands, he is damn good with that blade

Looks great. I was really confused when I saw this thread, up here in the NW Winco is a grocery store lol.

Looks great!

I am debating doing my windshield. 70% is likely almost unnoticable as being tinted, but will provide UV protection for the interior and reduce heat build up on hot sunny days.

But, what worries me is night-time driving. Do you have any trouble seeing at night. I know it's only 70%, but still thats 30% LESS light getting through.

Any input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Looks great. Too many deer out where we live for me to do similar though.

honestly from the inside out you cant tell the difference, just blocks oncoming traffics headlights, i live in the suburbs where it gets preeetty dark at night, the key here is using a high quality tint

Lol at herbie

where's the shop? i'm thinking about tint too!

all-star sound, tell them punk rock eddie sent you, jay and john are the owners who are very very legit (especially when it comes to audio and electronics they cant be beat price-wise), and danny their tinter has been doing this for 20 years!! watching him do tint is definitely an experience he's the shit!!!!

hahahaha dude i kept wondering why everyone was talking about herbie then i realized their bug got in the pictures
:laughabove:

45 on the sides will look very light outside during the day. Does the law over there allow no tint on those windows?

the sides only look light because of the light coming in through the front windshield, it actually looks pretty balanced, however i DID want to go a little bit more conservative considering i'm usually up to no good :party0030:

sounds like many things, you get what you pay for.

I'm glad your wincos are working out for you!! :lol:

I paid more for the better stuff too. What sold me was a demo of regular film and upgraded film with a heat lamp shining through it. The good stuff blocked almost all the heat (IR).

agreed!!! i'm taking no shortcuts on this car i love it so much haha

Ha! I was thinking the same thing, who the hell gets tint at WINCO, lol!

So, is tint on the front windshield legal in CA? It's not here in Md.

Is window tint on Aisle 4 or Aisle 5? :bellyroll:

So are you going to re-tint it every time a rock chips your windshield and you get it replaced? Might end up pretty expensive in the long run.

tint goes on the inside of the vehicle

In CA tint is illegal on the front windows correct?

Doesn't matter when rocks chip and crack the windshield and you replace the entire thing.

Can you post a photo where the two films meet on the windshield?

for the rear...what did they do about the third brake light?

the legal limit for CA is 70% on the front

The top of the 3rd brake light comes off just FYI.

Just gotta make sure it works again after they take it off. I know people were having problems with it when these cars were still new

I wish tints were legal here. Lucky bastards!

Wincos Tint Done!!!
 

this is the most retarded reason for not getting tint ive ever heard, how many times do you replace your windshield??? in the 3 cars ive driven ive never had to replace the windshield once

no problem man as soon as i get a chance tomorrow morning

Probably this will help??

I've had mine off several times, as long as you don't break the wires in the back and remember to plug it back in you should be fine.
