T-Top Tinting

The t-tops on my car are tinted a rather light purple, and I would like to get my side windows and the rear tinted the same way as the t-tops, but the purple would NOT look good with the rest of the car. It also appears that the t-tops aren't tinted, but the glass is actually that color. Does anyone know of a place that makes T-Tops with different colored glass, or have any suggestions for my tint matching?

No t-tops ever came with purple tint

It should be black/mirrored limo tint

Hmm. Wel,, I'm almost 100% sure that they're the T-Tops that came with the car, and they don't look purple from the outside, but looking up into the sky from inside they seem very purple. How much would new glass for the t-tops cost?

mine are like that, its just the tinting getting some sun damage, mayb you leave your car in the sun and light reflects off the glass and up to the T-top glass. the previous owner kept it in the sun non-stop in a field. get some tinting and re-do it if your not happy.
