Tints

Anyone have their original tints removed and have new ones put on? How long did it take, and how much did it cost, and what % did you get.

yeah...i got 30% on mine, i wish i woulda gotten 20, but it still looks nice. If you're having the old one removed, it gets costly.

I got 20%...wish it were darker. I regret not goin with 5%. Anyway, yeah it is a ***** to have to pay money to take them off, but the 4 door windows you can easily take off yourself, but I don't know about the back cuz the heater lines.

Also, I seen where somebody had 20% on the front 2 to fatory match the back of their Denali, then put 5% on top of that without takin off the 20%, which he said made it 2.5 or 3%. I was wondering since I got 20%, what would it go to if I put another layer of 20% on top of it?

By the way, I pair $150 all around (No Moonroof) for mine. Lifetime Warranty.

Mine got done today and I went with 35% on the front, 20% in the rear. Cali cops seem to be getting a little more aggressive with the tint laws here. I'm seeing more and more cars being pulled over with darkm tint, not saying that's what they got pulled over for but it's getting more and more noticible.

I think I have about 5 percent. I bought the stuff at wal-mart and did it myself. Cost about 20 bux.

Oh, California doesn't like my tint. All I can say is , I don't need the commie crap.

I got 5% all around and it cost $200
For the back window just get tint film remover or windex and spray on in the sun and let is sit for a 5-10 min. peel off or use a razor (just don't cut the defroster lines). Mine came off with no problem and the tint that came off was very old and very faded.
