Thanks but does anyone have any pictures of their tinted windows? Still deciding on 35% all around for a uniform look or 25% in back and rear with 35% on sides. Let me know your thoughts on this.
I tint for a living, so maybe I can help in this thread. for the windows dropping down when you open the door, it is a very simple solution. the lil black button in the door jamb you can either tape to make it feel like the door is closed or back the screw out of it to where the window pops all the way up. easy peasy. no need for any battery disconnect or special tools.
second, having tinted as many cars as I have and taking pics, it is almost impossible to show the true "in person" look of it. you can get it close, but that is it.
lastly, the 2 pics below of my wife's RC is SunTek CXP45 on the sides and rear and CIR70 on the windshield. the CXP line is a nano ceramic film and CIR is a full ceramic film. the heat rejection is great on both films. of course, any ceramic film will cost more money, but in my honest opinion it is 100% worth it. I have been using ceramic films on my cars since 2009 and will never use anything else. oh yeah, her interior is all black.
Totally agree. I've had ceramic, and non-ceramic, and have found no difference in radio reception or limiting heat from the sun into the car. In fact, the only difference I noticed was that ceramic was priced considerably higher, and for these reasons will not get ceramic again.
I just want to confirm that people are getting metallic tint and there are not any issues with reception. My installer who has done all of my cars told me that if I have any issue, its AM radio but he rarely sees that. I want to be sure that I wont have any reception issues with the rear tint. The ceramic up charge is $150 and Ive never paid that before.

As a professional tiniter, why do you only use ceramic? And is it really worth the extra $150?
I have Formula 1 nano-ceramic on mine. 35% so I'll be legal in all 50 states. (not that I'm visiting all)
Also have lifetime warranty from any Formula 1 dealer. The reason for ceramic, is it filters out more UV
rays without having to go so dark. Mine has sides, rear corners, and rear all the same. I didn't put any
on the front. I also went with the 35% for future resale being if you go too dark, or put it on the windshield
the state the car is being sold in might have laws against it. I don't have a pic but mine is black with red interior.
