Hello,

If anyone has had their rear windows tinted can you post pictures? I had my windows tinted at a private shop and was told the tint is computer cut however the tint looks to be very jaggedly cut around everything. I wonder if its harder to tint the rear windows with the slider? I just want to gather some pictures or advice before I contact the tint shop. The tint looks fine from the outside but the inside is another story.

Here's mine but it may be hard to see as it's dark out now. I can take a better picture in the daylight but it's cut nice and straight.

Can you take it back and ask the to redo it? It looks like Hellen Keller and Edward scissor hands did the instal. I'll try and get some close up ones so you can show them it can be done on the rear window.

I've had several vehicles tinted that had rear defrost. None of them looked like that.

Just got into contact with the shop. It’s father/son run. The dad started making up excuses for the poor job until his son took over the chat and told me to bring it in next week and he will retint the back window with computer cut pieces. The son was off work last week and his father isn’t aware of how to run the cutter.

That's good they're going to fix it. Here's some close up pictures just in case they say they can't get it perfect.

Yeah that looks like hammered ass. Totally unacceptable. I would check every inch of tint they put on.

I've never heard that one. You learn something new here every day. ?:giggle:
That was the phrase when someone showed up to formation that looked like crap.

Stand outside the back window. Can you see it without really looking? And you know where it’s at. Now can other people who don’t know see it? Then what’s it matter?

I was told beforehand that the film would be computer cut. I’m also not the only one who thinks this job is butchered given the other replies. The tint job wasn’t cheap so you’d expect better quality, no? Regardless if other people can/can’t notice it. Now that I know it’s done the way it is, it’s going to bug me until the issue is resolved. Thanks for your take on the situation though.
