Thread Starter
My car is cobalt blue so i think a black or matched high mount spoiler and blue tint would look good on it. I'm a do it yourself 3 times guy before i'm a go to a shop and spend $900 on something that takes a couple hours and $100 in parts.
I need to know how to tint this vehical. I know how to tint a flat piece of glass. I did my entire 85 camery and 89 civic. The rear windows are spotted on the rear and there is the heat lines on the rear hatch window. any ideas?
How do i tint these windows and where can i get a high mount spoiler or a rear window cover like this one. Or does anyone know how to make one out of plexi glass?

personally I wouldn't do the tinting yourself. It takes alot of practice to make it look good and i got mine done for like 130 with a lifetime warranty (like 100 without it), and this is coming from a guy that has done everything else on his car. On the spoiler i don't know, just look around at different stores/ebay.

Do NOT tint it yourself man. You WILL get bubbles. Get it done professionally, it won't cost that much, and you will get a warranty on the work.
Also, for that spoiler, talk to user Kspectiburon01
Nice guy.

Tinting isn't that hard, me and a buddy have been tinting ourselves for years, I'll admit the first few were ugly, but by the time I got my tib it was flawless.
The only thing I've never been able to master is the back hatch..

so, i've done tint before. i just need to know what to use on the glass to make a good seal between the tint and the window. Water dosn't work, it will do flat glass but not the type with the heat lines on the rear hatch.

I tried to tint my rear window to 35% using a heat gun, and it went very well except for one wrinkle about 4" long. So I guess it didn't go very well. I'm going to let a shop redo it sometime.
The side windows are easy though.
