I agree, that's the best way to go about anything. ESPECIALLY when buying a car!

 

Looks like we lost the thread starter. [sm=icon_ladiesman.gif]

 

no im still here lol

 

Didn't mean to steal your thunder. It just kinda happens like that. Has everything been informative?

 

yes, i really appreciate yalls help!

 

welcome

 

Any place that is halfway confident with their work and offer a lifetime warranty probably does a good job. You probably don't have much to worry about. Just do what everyone's been sayin' and don't use your defroster (LA shouldn't be that cold right now anyway, right?), don't roll down your windows for a while, and do NOT use ammonia-based products on it or just PRIOR to taking it in. They should wash the windows anyway, but still best not to. And INSPECT INSPECT INSPECT. Do NOT take it off the lot 'til you look at every little detail, the corners/edges and focus especially on the rounded glass (i.e. front and rear windows). Post pics when you get it done! Good luck!

 

my best tint job!...


general info:
use soap and water to clean ur windows after u get tint...
and to put tint on .. cause then u can use lots..and get it nice and wet and slippy..soo u dont screw it up....
never ever.. cut your tint in the middle.. or for "heater strips"---this causes bubbling..and air pockets..that only show up once ur tint drys and is in the sunlight

when in doubt... pay the extra few dollars and have it professionally dun.. then the cops cant bitch either!
make sure the shop gives you a disclaimer from the state ordinance book that states tint is legal... they do that here for us to prevent the 200 dollar fine and having to scrape the windows


oh..btw welcome to the forum sweetie

 

welcome!..ya just get it tinted and dont worry about it, as soon as i got my car i brought it to the shop to get tinted, lifetime warrinty on bubbling,pealing and changing color..they didnt cut any lines for the defroster, and i use almost everyday in the winter and never had a problem

 

lol thanks yall have been really helpful... and to my_hidden_romance... that is a good tint job, but i can help but wonder, why is the car in the trees?? lol [8D]
