Just had my Mazda3 HB tinted. Tints look good other than the quarter windows that has a 1/4" gap at the top. Another thing, after the tinting some of the molding in the driver side door is loose? How much of a hassle would it be to get those fixed? Thank you.

I saw a few pics and liked it. Anyone have thoughts on doing this? I'm not a fan of how red the reflectors are and how huge they appear on the rear bumper. Seriously considering tinting it to have it blend with the bumper a little. Thoughts?:surprise:

Where do you buy the window tinting kits? Any recommended places in SF bay area? Are they custom made for your car? I've never tinted my car windows, so I have no idea where to start. It looks like legislation varies quite a bit across states, so I was wondering if you take that in account as...

For the NorCal folks. I'm getting the front windows of my 3sT tinted on Monday and was wondering what the consensus on how dark we can get away with. I know Cali law is no tint and there's always a chance a cop in a bad mood may stop me... but for the most part, what can I get away with? 70...

I have a 2011 Mazda3 i and I would like to tint it. In your opinions do you think its weird to have two tints? Lighter in the front than in the dark? Because where I live the tint law is 50% in the front and 35% in the back. I was thinking about either doing that or going full 35%. What is...

Been putting some effort into this one, I was hoping to tint my lights on the sedan over Spring break to sort of match the window tint and blacked emblems. Possibly a smoke? So the question is, what gives the best results? What would look best on a M3 Sedan? I don't want them dark to the point...
