1SS/RSCamaro2010 · 07-16-2010, 08:00 PM

I just got my tint done today on my Camaro. The guy up there said do not roll the window down for 2 days but every time i open and close the door the window does its auto seal thing. im starting to see lines where its goin up and down should i not drive it or will the lines go away when it dries all the way??? Help Appreciated. Thanks

They should have tucked it lower than the seal if your seeing air take your drivers lisence or credit card put a couple sheets of paper towel over it and gently squeegee the air out if your seeing any. Most tint jobs have a warranty so if its messed up take it back.

You should be fine, I had no problems with the indexing after tinting.

I had the same question when I got my done. The window only slides down a little bit so it didn't mess my tint up at all. I got 5% all around and 15% on the windshield.

mine was fine to with the indexing.

Alright thanks man and yea it did come with a lifetime warranty. The guy said give it 2 weeks and if there is any bubbles or anything bring it back and they will fix it. I was just worried i was messing it up with the auto window thing.

I guess you dont drive at night much lol. How do you not get pulled over? I wouldnt even want 15% i think for the back window lol.

I had mine put on Monday. My driver's side will need to be redone. I tried to press the bubbles out with the credit card wrapped with paper towels, but it just sounded like bubble wrap popping real loud and not getting any better.

Jram1588 · 07-16-2010, 08:52 PM

I've been stopped a few times but they never give me a hard time. Most of the cops like it lol so they let me slide. And it isn't bad at night at all. If it's a really dark parking lot I can just roll down the windows.

You can roll down the windshield though. Ive only seen tint that dark on the windshields of toys lol. I would never have considered putting tint, especially 15%, on the windshield is what im getting at i guess.

The front windshield is fine I have no visibility issues whatsoever and it looks great imo. Only way I could see it being a problem is if you have issues with your vision.
