TINT HORROR STORY (read at your discretion)
#16
Here's a quote from the owner's manual:
If this isn't taken into account at the time of the tint application, you could be left with at strip at the bottom of the window with no tint on it, as it sounds like happened to surewin.
AUTOMATIC ADJUSTING FUNCTION (Coupe)
CAUTION
The power window has an automatic adjusting function. When the door is being opened, the window is automatically lowered slightly to
avoid contact between the window and the side roof panel. When the door is closed, the window is automatically raised slightly.
When the battery cable is removed from the battery terminal, do not close either of the front doors. The automatic window adjusting function will not work, and the side roof panel may be damaged.

I was like WTF!!! I was so pissed off I called into work sick.......cause that's what I was SICK. I must have went to the garage like 10 times last night.......I went through the 5 stages of grief....Anger, denial, depression, sadness, I haven't reached the resolution stage yet......I'm still in depression.
Long story short, I spoke with Armando and Chuck and found out that the WHOLE inside door and to be replaced!
TOTAL COST....Are you sittng down...................$1250. installed!!!! OMFG! I went ballistic.....Thought about my gun, then realized that I didn't want to be someones bitch at Folsom.
So I went to Tint Pros, with my estimate from Sac Infiniti .......I expected the worse...but the owner Danny was really cool...and very apologetic..... Bottom line. There gonna pay to have it fixed!
Very expensive tint job if you ask me!
BTW, I tried getting you paged Chris, but you were out when I was there. My car is gonna be there hopefully this week........maybe friday!
FYI, did Limo in the rear 3 and 35% on front 2........had them redo the fronts as well when I went back!
Ok....time to take a breath now!

They didn't use a heat gun on my tint. They just slid the tint down my window while it was still wet.
