A problem i've had with my sunroof. - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

The previous owner of my car must have put window tint on the sunroof. Well, now it looks like this.

I would like to take that off but i'm just not sure what the best method would be. I can see myself easily scratching up the glass. . . .HELP!

Bump. No one has any suggestions?

urm, It looks to me like the glass itself is broken?

Take it to a tinter. they have solvents they use to remove tints

I'm not aware of a BRZ/FR-S/GT86 coming equipped with a sunroof. You appear to be lost.

Considering that this is the other vehicles section, I'd say he found the right place.

It's only on the top surface. It's a tint that has been in the Georgian summer sun for far too long.

I may have to do this.

That video was very educational and great, but their tint was in one solid piece-- as you can see in my photos, mine is all cracked and inconsistent.

Mm, perhaps we should alert the authorities of such an insidiously abhorrent blunder i've made.

Perhaps, but only after you remove the twilight dude from your signature.

Wow, i'm sure the independent photographer of the photo would actually be quite flattered at the comparison. Personally, i don't see a resemblance.
