New tint

Just thought I'd throw up a couple pics of the tint I had put on today... nothing too special - 20% to match the factory glass in the back. I'm getting a few small things done first and work my way up! Next on the list is the good 'ol headlight mod once I find some other corners so I don't mess these ones up.
Don't mind the boring background.... and the squirrel lol

before...


after... it should be a little darker once it dries.. pic was taken about an hour after it was tinted, so it was still a little wet.

Looks good! I like those wheels, I just don't think that they would look good with the vista blue on my truck....unfortunately!

Nice job. I love a dark truck with a good tint.

That squirrel's thinking "I'd rock it if the windows were tinted!"

Either A: You got that polished option on your truck.

Or B: You got those silver painted ones where those were the only ones avaliable.

idk what year they started the DSG wheels and Polished wheels.

Looks awesome man. I really want to do this mod. How much did it end up costing you if you don't mind me asking?

I got it done for $60 cash (just the front two windows). It's the good metallic film, and they did it properly by taking the door panels off and everything.

Thanks.. I was just thinking about that actually! I'd love to find a set of flares off a DSG Sport... are they the same ones, only painted?

LOL I think that squirrel is the one who has been rocking my tinted Focus. I found a cookie stashed in the centre groove of the valve cover on it and I always come out to find that squirrel near it... haha
