Just like to thank Brian from Shaded Industries for an outstanding job! Did not break bank <<$200!

5% all rear side and back windows and 25% front sides. I didn't go with the strip on the front windshield, but now i'm thinking I should've.... oh well

Starting the back


Getting the front done

Looks clean! Looking forward to tinting my NBSP in the coming months.

Did you end up tinting both panes of rear glass, or just the large rear window?
I love the look and very nicely done, looks great on the white car, too :thumbsup:


Just wondering how the visibility is out the rear, especially at night with the 5%? Or even out the sides with the 25%? I am thinking the darkest I can go would be better to protect my interior from the sun once I get to FL.


Thanks for sharing!
What type of tint material did you get done???
Be honest with you, have no idea, but he comes to this little town and Tints for the Car shops here, and he used whatever he uses for them. He assured me its no cheap stuff, and got warranty on it. Be honest with you, as long as it looks good, doesn't peel n stuff i'm a happy camper.

Yup did ALL glasses minus the front windshield!

I'll have to report on that when I take it out in dark. Just came back and, I can say it is DARK, visiblity for Vampires! Beware!

Cops don't bug you with that level tint on the front sides?
Looks good.
I just got mine tinted. I have a NBP. I got 5% in the back and 20% in the front. At first I couldn't see anything out the back. Now I am used to it and love it.

The next step is to tint the tail lights.

I think that all colors of the CRZ look good with tints. The dude that did mine did a great job. He is in Queens if anyone wants to hit him up.

I need to take some pics. This weekend.

don't know yet, yet to drive it out the Garage (minus up n down street). I'm tired seeing to many dang other cars with Tints in the front and none on mines. (accord) Granted this car will probably attract cops a bit more. Time will tell! :beer: remember no drinking n driving
Was any "shaping" needed? Did you see him using a heat gun to shrink the film anywhere, or was it a more straight-forward install with no shaping needed?
25 is pretty dark but it looks really good. I'm just too chicken-s**t to do more than 45. :p
Well that and I do want my interior to show from the outside, but since I live across the street from a cop I don't want to push my luck. ;)

I know that the drive and passenger sides had to have some minor shaping with heat gun when doing mine but not a lot.

Again, nice tint (please don't censor me there is an 'n' in there!)

The guy that did mine didn't have to do anything on side windows, a little on the rear hatch and on the windshield.
Looks great I am thinking about getting 20-25% done on mine.

I have read there are possibilities of causing electrical damage since they use a lot of water to apply it to the windows. Has anyone ever had an issue with that or heard of it causing any damage if water gets behind the door panels?
looks great, even though i would rather get 5 windows the same shade
