Generally this is something that is avoidable if the installer explains how to take care of the tint to you. These cars come with felt, first off, so if that was sold to you as an extra, you got scalped. Second, it is the responsible thing to ensure that you regularly clean the inside of your windows with an ammonia free window cleaner, especially where the window meets the rubber seal at the top. Unless your factory felts were contaminated to begin with, I don't see how this could be happening to you. I have Llumar's CTX 35 on my FR-S...which is comparable to Formula One (without the fancy name).

Sources being that I work for one of the largest and most reputable window tinting companies in southern California. If your installer was reputable, he will have given you a Llumar warranty card with the film's lot number and installer information. Contact CP Films, (owner of llumar), and file a warranty claim using the information listed on said card. Explain that you follow proper cleaning procedures, you think the installer may have scammed you by selling window felts on a car that comes with them, and ask them to make it right. They're generally very reasonable.
