I just had my windows done.

I have a SW tC. The film is Solar Gard High Performance Charcol. It looks nice. I have 32% on the front windows... although with the factory shading on the windows it reads 28%... the baack seat and hatch have 13%. It looks real nice and cuts down on the heat inside really well. Basic black tint on a white car looks sexy!

I only recommned Solar Guard because of their mounting procedures and the warranty. Excellent! This is the 3rd car done with this tint and all through the same dealer.

My driverside window has 2 air bubbles that will not come out... so the dealer has offered to reinstall that window.

Only problem is, I had my windows tinted back home in J-ville and I live in Orlando. I liked the dealer from past installations and made a specila trip to have it done. I guess I have to make a special second trip to get it fixed.

HOWEVER, The car looks great!

5% back three
nothing on the side 2... planning on it but, to me it matters less. I already don't have a front plate. i don't want to push it with the side tint. roseville cops are kinda rough like that.
I paid $120 for my tint at The Professional in Sacramento.
they hooked me up a little because i send customers there all the time.
