Full Version: FIRST BEETLE ATTEMPT
Well, i
Well, I attempted my first beetle today. It was a 99 coupe and really wasnt all that bad. I used greystone 10% film in the rears and the film shrunk pretty decent. Took about 2 hours to do anyone else ever attempt with johnson film before??? In my opinion these cars are a great profit maker.
They're not bad after you do a few you'll be knockin them out..
I just did a 08-09 with the new spoiler covering the top 6 inches of the rear window-its all in tha way .
I'v now got the Beatle BG down to around 10 mins! They do look really good when finished

Good job, its a nice feeling when the tint goes smoothly QUOTE (TINTDESIGNZ @ Jun 26 2008, 09:25 PM) [*]626929[/*] I just did a 08-09 with the new spoiler covering the top 6 inches of the rear window-its all in tha way . That must have really sucked! I guess it wasn't bad enough that it was a Beetle back window that they had to throw in a little spoiler action on ya!

Well today, I too did my first Beetle in about 6 years. The first 2 I did years ago I had to 2-peice. But the customer didn't want it done if it wasn't 1 peice.
I did some research here for a few days, and felt way more confident. ( I think I was just psyching myself out). Dry shrunk it in about 15 min, and went in like a dream, although the dot matrix was pretty grabby. The info you guys give out is great... although you should lay off Scotty more!
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
