Usually they pull up slightly behind my door and peer through the back window to get the full shot, I sit with my seat reclined more than usual so …:lol

I had my roach done at Tint King _7 years ago_, and it still looks great.

I think that is impregnated in the glass, so I dont think its removable. Well, without replacing the glass itself.

I figured I couldnt remove it. Luckily its not too dark so its manageable. I have a hard time seeing out of dark windows at night and just dont like tint at all.  
Ive had one truck with aftermarket tint and I ripped it off the day after the first night I drove it (was on it when I bought the truck).

My dad had the Z done at the tint shop that used to be on altamont ave, acctualy it was where Inline is now and before linex was there… forget the name of it… 14 years later, other than turning a little purpleish from the sun etc… not peeling or bubbleing 1 bit…

not that this matters as I have no idea if the place is even around, although i belive they are still around I just dont remember where they moved or what the name was

sorry for the PJB moment

I emailed tint star and they actually gave me a really good deal, to have the back three windows done, the front tint strip and both taillights tinted it will be about $300. $200 if I dont want the taillights done…so might go with them :thumbup
