Possible to redo tint?

reaper702 · 09-11-2006, 01:30 AM

i got my tint about 3 days right after i got my hrp si and i was upset at the crappy job they did and about the darkness of the tint. this was about 2 months ago and now i am really really hating how light the tint is. its 35% front and 20% rear and they told me that is darkest they can legally go. so now i'm going to try and get it redone, but is it possible to take off the tint of the window? or am i stuck with this sorry tint

?

Yes, they can take it off, all they need to do is heat it up and they can peel it off.

Its possible, but make sure they take their time. On my old accord, i asked this one place to take off my tint, the guy rushed it and scratched a part of my window. They basically tear it off, wet it, then use something to scrap off the leftovers. It cost me $5 per window btw.

I have 15%, works great and looks amazing on the my silver sedan ex... I have pics in the tint thread if you want to see what an outside view looks like.

edit: here are the links to the pics. It looks alot better than the pics show.
