any of y’all had them do an f-body? i’ll be looking for someone to do my TA when i get back up there but i’ve heard a bunch of horror stories about the rear hatch glass and i need someone to do it “right” and preferably with all one piece instead of 2 separate ones…

70% is fucking ghey… i can’t wait to get transferred out of this state… idk if it’s even worth it to get the TA tinted… my only saving grace is that i have NC plates and our laws let us go down to 35%… might just do it anyway and tell anyone who pulls me to go eat a dick…

You’re unlikely to get pulled over in a tinted T/A. You are very likely to get pulled over in a tinted, lowered Civic with a carbon fiber hood.

i may ride down there tomorrow… wasn’t sure what the weather was going to do today and didn’t want to drive the car in the rain since i just cleaned it up… tomorrow is a 0% chance for rain so i might just take it out there and see what he says… i would think i should be able to get it done for around $200 give or take but i’ll be damned if i pay almost double that… i’ll leave it sitting as a bubble and deal with it until i get back down south where everyone rolls with tint and prices are reasonable before i pay that

thats what i want is 35% since that’s what is legal in NC where the car is registered… if you find someone reasonable or someone who wants to do a group thing, let me know and we can make a thing out of it

Damn, looks like I need to raise my prices to keep up with the going rate! I do 2 front windows (trucks and SUV’s) for $60, and 2 door cars for $175 and sedans for 180 for average cars (something like an f body etc obviously takes more time). Also with a full warranty…
