Anyone tinted their rear quarter panel windows?
Rather than buy expensive side scoops, has anyone tinted their rear quarter panel windows?

Pics, please.

Cheers

I have a 35% tint on all windows, except the windshield of course. Many places can do a tint (unless you know how I suggest you pay to get it done so its done right). I only did 35% because thats the legal limit in MA.

Google is your friend!

All of mine are tinted in 35% as well. I look through my 1/4 windows a lot so can't 'louver' them. Don't have any good pics of just them.

I've got 15% on mine. Looks great. The key is finding a good tint shop that can properly do the dot matrix surround on the glass.

I did 5% on mine. Rear quarter windows only. I like it. I got a pre-cut kit from Florida Custom Tinting. did it myself. Pretty easy if you're careful about it.

Sorry for the crappy cell phone pic!

side windows are easy. Pick some tint up from the local parts store and do it yourself.
