If it doesn't go below the seal, you're going to F up your tint job the first few days by just opening and closing the door. (remember our windows go up and down a bit when you get in/out)

For now, to stop the peeling, why not X-Acto off the corners that are curling up?

So I woke up 6:30 AM this morning to go down to the dealership to get my one and only free oil change. (I usually DIY it. But since they used Ester oil and it's free for the first time I figured heck why not.) So my car has about 1.6K on it and it got it's first oil change, into the Nissan Ester brand for free. And then I dropped my car off to get it tinted. The guys did a fabulous job 15% in the back, and 35% passenger, the car looks great now with the tint. And after the oil change I did feel a difference in the smoother acceleration and everything just felt great. What a great day, dealership does do 39.99 regular oil change and also the 109.99 ester, I got the ester free. So I think at 4500 or 5000 I'll switch to redline.

Daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaam. I know the black interior is contributing, but that looks DARK. Looks tight tho. Congrats!

Something about a good oil change makes it feel like my birthday :icon17:

^ I know I felt like the car is completely new again after the break-in change lol

Makes me want to tint my windows. I have a silver w/black interior as well... looks good!

FYI, you can tape the little sensor on the door frame down so that your windows don't auto up/down.

Won't that pose a problem with sealing the window upon closing? Or worse...? Not sure, just askin'.

suscribed because i think steve might have a point but i dunno, and sheesh go to bed steve i thought i was the only one up right now

Tint looks great. But your Z is missing something. It's missing THE370Z decals! :icon17:

Have patience. Try not to put the window down for as long as you can tolerate. Great job on the tint. :tup:

Yeap, the tint needs to go below the window seal. Is not going to matter how long you let it dry is going to peel again and again.

Smoother accelleration because of the tint or because of the oil change?

In either case, seriously? Talk about placebo effect... =/

hahah smooth acceleration because of the oil change since it was running on break-in oil. But yeah I check the tint everyday and so far it has not peel yet, Keep in mind I went to the best of the best that is recommended by a lot of people, even police and CHP uses them to tint their cars. The total charge was $229.99 with life time warranty, I have faith in the people who did it because I saw a picture album and they've done many many 350Z which also has that same window up and down feature.
