Good News.

Got the windows tinted. Looks awesome, I went with 20%. Tint Man Monroe CT.


Bad News

Later that night I was picking up pizza and some moron backed up into the stang. Luckily I was on my way out and I saw him backing up and not stopping...I ran and kicked the back door of his minivan but he still kept backing up. Anyway..not real bad at all but just a pain to deal with.

Hey jdruid,

Did you get the rear window tinted?

I amthinking about getting tint for my vert and have been told it is not always a good idea to tint the rear window.

Thanks...

Tint looks great. Sorry about the damage. Was your retaliation with the kick successful? Hope you didn't hurt your foot.

Yeah, got the rear window done. Looks awesome. Rear is glass so not sure why that would be an issue.

I think it "may have" put a dent in his rear door. He had a junky caravan. To be honest I think he was feeling good, if you know what I mean. The pizza place is known for its happy hours and he may have been drinking. I know it was only speculation but kicking the back door, banging on the window, and yelling did not seem to stop him. Plus he gave me his credit card when I asked for his license.

Now is the time for you to get a street scene front facia. We have to look at these things from another angle.

I'm from Shelton and I heard that Tint Man is the best around. I am thinking about tinting my 06 vista blue gt. Most likely only the side windows and quarters, i don;t think i would do the back. How much did they charge?

$150. Awesome job. You have a vert or coupe? Just go light on the back. I did 20% all around. We should hook up and I can show you the Tint.

Coupe. I know I'll regret not getting a vert on a warm summer evening, but being only 2 years removed from college and still living at home, i didn;t want to spend over 30k on a car, although i came close!!

Not a bad price for the tints. I know its winter now, but do you ever go to any of the local cruise nights such as the one on rt 34 in derby? Last few years i;ve been going with my motorcycle, but I think i'll get a few more looks this summer than with an 81 yamaha.
