New Tint on the Bird

I just got 20% on the front windows & 5% on the rear. I think it cleans it up a bit

Nice Marc - Where did you go? Would you recommend them? It's on my to-do list for awhile now. I'm going with a tame ~35% around though

Re: New Tint on the Bird

I had "Tintco" in Orangevale do it. I don't drive this car on the street so I didn't care how dark it was. It really gives the car a different look. It was $200.
The only thing I dont like is the defrost veins show through on the back glass. Still looks good though!
Thanks for the compliments, I will have it washed & waxed tomorrow....I hear its worth a .100 in the 1/4 mile. hahah

Looks nice. I have 15% all around on the A4 and it is dark, I love it. I will do the same on the formula. I have 35% now which looks good but i like it dark.

Old t/a with 35% front/15% rear


Formula with 35% all around
