i went to window tint shop 456 west rt 46 in south hackensack.

the guy said since i dont have the rear defrost it was even harder to mold the film since he couldnt make any relief cuts.

its 5% tint

i need a new NJFBOA decal since he had to remove it to use the heat gun to mold the film to the shape of the window!

I had mine done at automagic too and they did a horrible job. I want to get it redone but its fine for now. I wont be going back there. My brother got his 07 sonata tinted out there and they did a really nice job on his though.

You should see my hatch, its not even acceptable. Line and bubbles all over the place and it isn't even a month old.

lol yea i got about 4 or 5 lines, some bubbles, and i cut the tint over the matrix because that was a joke, i painted the inside of the glass so that looks solid now. It was one of my first things i did to the car and i didnt know any better, hell i didnt even look that close at it at first, now im getting anal though.
