DumbA mean forgot to check the forum this morning because I thought I had a cakewalk 05 Stratus 4 Door. Low and behold it shows up and its a 2 door. Dont have internet at the shop so I suffered through it. Do most of you guys and gals do it in 1 or 2 peice. Any secrets on the one peice? Thanks

Yep, pull on 'em a bit, and with the glue technique used at the top, you don't have to have it totally perfect up there. Glue will hide a lot that won't come out with the gun. Just don't try this on a car without lines or dots at the top.

I got it in 1 after 11/2 hours - I had trouble getting the sides to move to the top I was just wondering if it was easier to slap 2 peices on and go -thanks for you help

Olfa style is taking a back glass and tinting it in as many pieces as humanly possible, then adding one more piece.

Like when that chick picked up her Cobalt yesterday, she said she is a bartender, and all her customers who have had tint done referred her to me. Gotta love that! And, she's a bartender... couldn't ask for better advertising!

one thing i do that helps on this bg is instead of anchoring the film in the center across, i anchor it a little bit higher than center to help out with those upper corners.
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
