Finally got some tint. - Toyota Yaris Forums

The Architect · 08-10-2009, 07:48 AM

The other day I got a quote for $110 so I just went out and got it done in what was a spur of the moment sort of decision, all in all Im happy with the results.

It was a very bright day so it doesn't get as much credit as it should. Its 35% on the sides and 20% on the back.

Nicely done, perfect for the motif of the car you've got going.

yaris-me · 08-10-2009, 02:20 PM

Good price. nice job.

tuckevalastin · 08-10-2009, 03:24 PM

great price! where did you get it done?

Brentorius · 08-10-2009, 03:29 PM

Is your front rim bent? I like the taillights!

Sodium Duck · 08-10-2009, 08:48 PM

Very nice. So for the tails, did you tint them with paint or film?

Are the rear windows 20%? Or just the hatch?

The Architect · 08-10-2009, 09:12 PM

Just the hatch is 20%, I got it done at some tint shop in east hartford...probably the only one ion that part of town, yes my wheel is bent...big huge epic pothole, im working on it.
And my tails were painted by my buddy like 9 months ago in Fl, he does auto painting sorta.

tuckevalastin · 08-10-2009, 09:15 PM

I paid something like $220 when I got mine done over in Berlin, CT in May.

The Architect · 08-10-2009, 09:19 PM

hm well so far the tint looks great, its got a 1 year warranty and the guys are willing to fix anything that goes wrong no questions but im not too worried.

tuckevalastin · 08-10-2009, 09:23 PM

yea sounds like you just got a good deal... looks good

kac · 08-10-2009, 10:57 PM

Thats about what I paid for the back little windows and the hatch on my 3dr.
Can't have any tint on the front side windows in illinois though...

I like it, I like darker better, but i do like it.
rock On!

Great job on it!

the car looks amazing except for the bent rim on the front right, i'm sure that was a painful experience

otherwise though that's a sweet meteorite metallic LB and you have a couple mods I have planned so it's nice to see some assurance that I have good taste

bikegerm · 08-13-2009, 12:24 PM

I love your headlights. What are they and where did you get 'em?

The Architect · 08-13-2009, 07:14 PM

ehh they're the now infamous depo lights but you can get them from ebay for around 229

if you do get them YOU MUST GET HID and....YOU MUST SILOCONE THE HOUSING.

and if you know a guy id really recommend putting another light low or non gloss clear coat.

caineroad · 08-14-2009, 05:35 PM

what size are your tires?

Rnankoo · 08-14-2009, 06:14 PM

looks great

mrbond · 08-14-2009, 06:33 PM

Did they use two pieces of tint on the back window?
