Question:
I put on 35 3m tint and its looking good from the outside, but the view through my hatch from the rear view mirror is a bit "wavy"

Will that "cure" out or is there an optically superior film I could use? It's not bad, just noticeable.

I guess another option is to put in factory tinted glass. I saw a tinted hatch on the 2012 nismo the other day at the dealer.

Has anyone heard or had experience with 3M Crystalline Window Tinting product?

Looking to get my windows tinted and came across the above product online.

It's expensive, so I would like to get some feedback on whether or not this stuff is any good. Short/Long term reliability? Not sure how long it's been out on market.

just go with SG the best out there thats what I installed on my Z

Also when your shop does the back window make sure its cut to the right length, which means it is an inside job he has to sit there and cut it out slowly, sadly it may look wrong, atleast the guy who did mine wasnt a fatass so he could fit in the hatch

Hey guys,

Question for you. I live in CT and today my brother got a "warning" about his tint from a cop. Apparently we need a sticker from the dmv that says its been approved. Has anyone heard of this before? I dont want to run into this problem as i have 20% all around. Anyone have any ideas of how to get around this haha..
