Great tint job. He actually tinted in front of the rear brake light so now its hard to see.. but it looks good.

That's a good thing. Have you ever seen a car that didn't have the third brake light covered? I have and it looks aweful. From some angles you can see a really light area on the back window where it looks like it's missing tint, because it is.

But, I'm going in next week to have one of my front windows re-tinted because of peeling issues near the front bottom corner. Oh, and BTW, 20% all around is sure damn dark. I'm still not used to it after 9 months, LOL.

the guys that did my tint at tint zone just unscrewed a couple of screws on the door panel which make the windows "think" the door is closed. once they got the film on they used a blow torch on the outside of the window to help dry the edges, especially near the top. just got it done last weekend, so still waiting for al the bubbles to go away.
