Looks pretty smooth. This new model does have front quarter windows however they are factory tinted like the rear. The front roll ups have a black edge on both sides. Should make for a pretty easy window film install.

Seems to be the same windows are the previous years. Sweep still needs to be cut if you’re a bottom loader. Front corners are a little tight. I recommend a little extra slip for these ones but other than that pretty straight forward.

Doing full vehicle including windshield on this next week at an NFL players house garage an hour away, anybody done one? I have not seen one in person or know if there is anything to watch out for or electronics behind panels to cover up.

super easy car, remove 1 screw at the end of the door panel then pop the top back. The gasket is in 1 complete piece with the sides so you will need to slice it to get just the bottom out. On the rear if you remove the molds you need to plug the cut outs in the metal with cloths or something otherwise the water will run into the roof liner. All n all get as many of these as possible.

New Range Rovers - WARNING!
by Guest tintos- 0 replies

Just putting this up for anyone that might not know Rangeys. But don't jump in the back of one of these and start spraying water like its on fire! open the trim behind the C pillar (both sides) and you'll see lots of techno/diagnostic stuff, like ECU's, suspension levelling sensors, dvd and bluetooth stuff. Protect it well with towels or something Just another thing, on the newer models the battery is under the bonnet, if you want to hook a supply up to the car, conect the negative to the chassis, not direct to the battery.

Landrover Discovery 99

Hi, I'm new to the site and tinting (about 20 cars), had a call for a 99 Discovery. He said he wanted the back sun roof tinted and everything from driver back... How do you do the sun roof and safari lights? Is the rest tricky as I'm guessing they're rubber gaskets, not dot matrix and full of gunk. I don't remove trim where possible, but can and have on some cars. Cheers

Guys this is a very easy install I did one today all glass is flat.The panels on this vehicle are very easy to remove if needed.You have to remove the screw for the door latch and then remove the electric window console,this should just pop up and then just pull on the panel not too hard and remove the weather strip peace of cake

I am looking to tint the windows in my Discovery. Does anyone have any ideas as to what level of tint I should use. The purpose of tinting is for privacy and of course looks. The Discovery is Navy blue. Does anyone have any pictures so I can see what the Discovery would look like with tinted windows? What level of tinting should be used on the front passenger window and drivers window? I look forward to reading your comments. Thank you for the help with this. Regards, Andrew

Front Window Tint
by Guest AMG- 2 replies

I notice on many cars the front window has little spots around the outside of the window. If one is to have the front window or rear window tinted is there any way in insuring the film makes a good contact over the black spots so as to avoid bubbles and also look like it is original? I look forward to hearing your comments and feedback

Auto window tint claims/performance question
Thank you for the explanation gentlemen. I definitely learned something new today. As a average consumer, say you pay for a specific type/brand of tint but after you get the car back, how does one knows that tint on the car is what you asked for? Thank you again. -

Help me pick?!
How long the shop has been around helps but the work they do is more telling. There are shops I know that have been "around" longer than I have but I was killing them in quality from the start. Here I am 24 years in. Go look at the work they do. -

Auto window tint claims/performance question
So you aren't measuring IR but a generic "solar heat". I've got the old analog btu meter and it was a cool tool but I don't use it and have not for probably 20 years. You are way overthinking this.- 1

Hey guys, correct if I'm wrong but isn't " V-Kool " a gimmick film. Apparently something about it reflects IR instead of absorbing it ?? Any knowledge on this film? -

How -tough- is the scratch coat
On a SUV, when u have it loaded up, and you know when something/somethings will touch the back glass (if tinted), I often throw a mover towels ontop as I have definately replaced rear tint in this due to it getting scratched.... Which got me thinking or over -thinking. Movers towel while not hard is not exactly soft... Do I need to throw a *soft* microfiber towel on it so if it rubs against the back glass, it won't scratch the tint. -

What is the best value plotter to cut PPF and window tints?
I just purchased a warehouse to open up a wrap shop to apply PPFs, window tints, and vinyl wraps to customer vehicles. What is the best value plotter to get? I want something that will be reliable, has a really good software that is easy to use and saves film, and something that would break the bank. Ive heard of brands like the Workhorse 2, Graphtec fc9000, and Jaguar V LX 72". What do you guys recommend?! Thank you so much for the help! -

Help me pick window tint!
Hi everyone, I need help picking the best window tint for my car. I want to get a ceramic film and have gotten few quotes. Now while comparing them it got me confused. Here are my options listed from most to least expensive. Xpel XR Autobahn Black Ceramic Llumar CTX or 3M Ceramic IR I am looking for perfomance and longevity. -

Help me pick?!
Xpel shop has been around for more than 15yrs Llumar and Autobahn one around 4 3m probably around 15+ too. But there was one review questioning the authenticity of film. So staying away from it. So probably out of Xpel, Llumar ans Autobahn -

Help me pick?!
High dollar quotes may be representative of; 1) high overhead costs or 2) wanting to stand out in a crowded field through a price illusion of having the best. Most all 'ceramic' films in the industry come within 5 or so percentage points of each other in terms of TSER. The amount of difference is trivial in comparison to overall performance, while occupying the car. Write each one down on a small piece of paper, put them in a bowl, and blindly pick one. Then, get an idea of what their workmanship looks like by visiting their shop, what the product might look like on your vehicle, and what might be their service history rating from online apps. Workmanship outweighs all other factors. I cannot pick for 'you'.
