so this was my idea 10 years ago when i was 16, but then I got high. So I just googled it out of curiosity to see if anyone stole my idea yet. Aaaaannd I found these filthy thieves. I want this and since this car tint is so "FTW" I forgive them for stealing my idea.... presenting...

auto electric adjustable nano carbonite tint.

I thought about this 17 years ago, but had no idea how to actually make it work. So...I guess you stole it from me and they stole it from you. Is that how it works?

That's very cool though. But the idea is not that original.

how much does that cost?

I see that technology everyday at work. I would get it for my cars if it doesn't cost more than a door.

They have that in a glass encased bathroom at a ice cream parlor in West Palm.
Flick of a switch the glass turns from clear to opaque.

That's funny/ironic you should post this up. I contacted E.A.T. a few days ago to get this done on my CL. I've always wanted this tint since I saw it on the Maybach. I should have it installed in a little over a month/month and a half. With all the research, this company seems to be the best aftermarket place that does it. I'm going to Malibu, California (for the first time) Aug 16-21. As soon as I get back, I'm getting this done on all the side windows

Not like a Boss...it's being the Boss!

There are demos back to 2010, but no pricing anywhere. Looks like it is in the glass (Between two thin panes) which means each window would need to be replaced. I would guess 5 windows would be $10K +...

isnt' this on the new SL ?

How much did they quote you to do your car?

Aldin,
Please post pics of your car when you get this done!

Yes Sir. They call it Magic Sky

I distribute this type of film. The film come in various colors and is dimmable. The film is quite thick, which makes application to cars a bit harder. We have done a Rolls Royce Baby Phantom in Asia not too long ago. The stuff is pricey, but its great for storefront advertisement especially when you pair it with a projector, and some interactive software.

Definitely, should look really cool IMO! Can't wait to see people's reactions when I flick the tint switch in traffic Everyone's gonna go lol

desired_speeds - How long does this tint last? A company can say anything to sell their product, but from first-hand experience, how long can I expect this tint to have an expectancy of?

hyperion667

wow that is cool.....probably expensive....

desired_speeds

It lasts 10 years or more depending on how much you use it. It's clear when its turned on and opaque when off. It can also be reapplied around 6-7 times if applied and removed using the correct procedures.

So back to the question that has been asked 4 times in this thread: What does this stuff cost.. lets say for 5 windows (4 sides + rear) ??

E55 G4MBL3R

if you have to ask you cant afford it

desired_speeds

$80 sq/ft for the standard creme color. $95/sq ft for other colors such as charcoal, green, red, etc. Depending on the size of the car's windows, it should be $1000 and up for the standard materiasl alone not including windshield. Aside from the tint film installation fees, dc/av convertor, dimmer, etc are all extra.

If this could be done anywhere near $1000 I know several people that would probably do it.

zneB-sedecreM

I don't think it can be done anywhere near $1,000 US for an entire car in all honesty, unless you're the guy with all the materials, and even then...

Goldstein

i second that. but I have a feeling
that this timt place isnt using the expensive corporate building stuff. I believe they have a much more cost effective method.

someone needs to call and get a quote


And I dono why you would want the opaque version. im talking about the one that goes from light to dark tint and visa versa.

Not a fan of the frost white look when activated, do they come with smoke color?

zneB-sedecreM

No, I don't want the 'frosted' looking white/opaque look that was on the driver and passenger windows. Pay attention to the rear windows at the 00:20 mark

I'm going get the the blue, almost sapphire, glass that had the dimmer and not the instant tint. The tint formed instead of flicked. Which is great, because that color will match my rear and front windshields really nice. My CL has that really blue/purple factory color to the glass. I got the windshield and rear glass tinted very dark so now it has that sapphire look. I always wanted to get my side windows the same as the front in rear. The sapphire color makes it so reflective and impossible to see anything inside at all lol. This tint is gonna be so cool. I showed some of my friends the video and they were all amazed
