I ended up getting my tint and clear bra installed on the same day, in February ! I got it installed at Auto-links they did a very good job on both the tint and clear bra. Right after the installation it started snowing. When i got home my car was covered in salt dirt. 3 weeks after i just checked, tint and clear bra still perfect. I found a mark on my front bumper that looked like it was hit by a stone. Good thing i got clear bra!

Depends on how much you're planning to drive at night. I have 30% all around because half of my driving is when the sun dissappear .

How much did you pay in total? Did you get ceramic? 15 or 30%? How is it? Please let me know.

Thanks in advance.

+1 for auto links.

Got my 30% tint, venture shield for complete hood, bumper, front part of fender and complete headlight from these guys.

by far one of the best shops in service, price and quality!
