Window tint nightmare/ Replacing both quarter panels..... Need opinions
Today I had my windows tinted at the detail shop my dealer recommended. I've had my windows tinted before so I know it takes a week or so to cure and look normal. However upon further inspection I find BOTH my quarter panels have the entire outline of the tint from the razor on the outside blackout!! WTF! the shop is going to replace them with safelite. I'm wondering if anyone has had there quarter windows replaced and if it's gonna be a hard thing to match the original factory or will it look alright??

The shop that did mine precut them. Half inch smaller all the way around then applied them. You can't tell there that much smaller from in or out of the car.

I've found a couple of scratches on mine from tint installation as well. I could just *#&K somebody up for that one...not bad enough to replace, just a fricken pisser!

Well good luck. If you are there and watching make sure they use a pinchwell primer when they put it back in we have a long standing problem in this area with guys not doing that and then the car starts rusting in no time. Make sure you look at all your trime on the inside of the car as they may mess that up also with the knife they are going to use in taking the old ones out.

The exact same thing happened to my 2010,three incredibly deep cuts where Bubba, cut the film on the outside.Dealer replaced the quarter window,no problems.Absolutely perfect job,done by some vendor.
