I know exactly how you feel! I think Black is to hard to maintain and Silver is all over the place, White is clean and something out of the ordinary!!

Looking good Mark! Have you checked whether your window moldings (on the inside that come in contact w/ the tint) are soft like felt, or abrasive like our 208s were? If yours are abrasive, you are going to want to have them changed out immediately to avoid vertical scratches occurring in your tint. There is a shop not to far from you that did mine.

Please post a pick of the @ss. Thats the best part. For everything!


Oh yeah...question. Does it matter that the AMG's come with blue tinted windows already?? Does that affect the way the tint comes out?

I think that the "Blue" tint from AMG will only make the aftermarket tint a bit darker. That is the main reason that I went with 35% and nothing lower as I figure the factory tint would come into play just a bit!

Nope, that place it too far for me! There is a place on Beach Blvd & Commonwealth that put it on and it turned out great. Lifetime warranty & will peel off for fix-it tickets & replace for $30, but best part is they only charged $130.
