A Trio of S-Classes

Now how often do you see 3 silver S-Classes together with AMG wheels and tinted windows besides maybe at a car show or dealership. One of those is mine and the other 2 are my customer's. Just thought I'd post up a picture.
If anyone would like to inquire about window tinting, I am up in Northern California and the phone number only works in the Bay Area. You can always e-mail me with any questions or visit www.TintDude.com I am on their tint registry.

If you go to City of Industry (China town) youll see more S classes together then Dodge trucks.

My dealership tinted my S and it streaked and they just said well thats how it goes the seams are tight. The tint looks like poo!

The reason why it streaked is because the trim at the top of the door panel that touches the glass is made out of rubber/plastic material instead of a felt material and when dust and dirt gets caught up in there, it scratches the tint when you roll it down. What you need to do is have them put a felt trim onto the rubber piece and that will correct your problems but of course you will need to have your rollup windows retinted.
