  1. Doors 

    - These were pretty hard. I did NOT take off the panels or remove sweeps. The hard part was getting the film in the sides cleanly, so tape over the felt or do whatever you do to have "felt" control.

     

    BG

    - Standard and easy. I put the film under the third brake light at the top of the window with no issues.

     

    Windshield

    - Standard. As always be careful with water, just because of all the electronics.

     

    Overall Difficulty:

    4/5 Because of doors

  2. Doors

     - These doors were pretty freaking hard. I didn't pull the panels (to scared to try haha). The front doors have a lot of space it has to get the film into on the sides and it's hard to get it there. back doors weren't too bad. 

     

    BG

     - pretty easy to shrink and install.

     

    Overall Difficulty:

    4/5 because those front doors are hell.

  3. Doors

     - Decent. Pretty much like any standard coupe. The gaskets were a little tight, but nothing crazy. Make sure to snap or heat shrink of course.

     

    BG

     - super easy! it's the little one inside the cab. no need to snap or heat shrink.

     

    Overall Difficulty:

    2/5

  4. Hey all, 

     

    Im starting this topic in order to learn more about flat glass! I personally have a knowledge of application, but I would love to know more about the following:

    - Tools of choice?

    - What films can be applied to what type of glass?

    - What glass should you NOT apply film?

    - Whats your techniques of choice?

    - Tips and advice?

     

    I live in Florida if that makes any difference to answers. If there's websites or another place on this site that I can find these answers, please direct me! I'm looking to do as much research as possible.

  5. Windows

     - Super easy. Just like previous models. Take out the sweeps to make it easier on yourself. Pull back gently. I don't ever shrink these side windows.

     

    BG

     - Again. Super easy! 

     

    Windshield

     - Pretty easy. Nothing concerning to me personally. 

     

    Overall Difficulty:

    1/5

  6. Windows

    - Easily pull out sweeps, just take out the screw on outside of panel towards you.

    - no need to snap/heat shrink whatsoever! Super easy

     

    BG

    - piece of cake! 

    - i didnt pull the rear deck, i just took my olfa and cut the rubber pieces that stuck to the bg. 

    It was still a little rough to get behind there with a bulldozer, but came out clean!

     

    Overall Difficulty:

    1/5! one of the easiest cars i've done.

  7. WINDOWS

       - super easy, panel pulls back 

       - be careful of front windows. carefully slide the tint behind the door on the top left corner.

     

    BG

       - Super easy, i heat shrank after i installed.

     

    Difficulty

    1 out of 5

  8. Tinted windshield just now and the windshield wipers are going NUTS! I called a honda dealership and they said they wouldn't recommend the windshield being tinted. But we'll see how it dries.......

    Windows

    - I didnt take sweeps out

    - if the back has the privacy glass, putting 30 on top will make it literally 15%

    - pretty easy, make sure you snap them. Fingers still kinda pop up here and there.

     

    BG

    - easy, but you'll need a step stool if you're short like me hahah.

     

    DIFFICULTY

    1.5/5

  10. 07

    Windows 

    - easy for the backs, a tad difficult for the fronts for the small "corner" of the window. Definitely snap the windows.

     

    Sweeps

    - not the easiest to take out but i only took out the front.

     

    BG

    - piece of cake

     

    Difficulty: 2/5

    Real light mist?

    Yea! If you just use a spray bottle, get it wet enough to scrub and then squeegee from right to left, no problems. If you drown it with the sprayer you'll probably see issues.

    • Gaskets easily removable.
    • big windows, no snapping needed.
    • of course heat shrink back window, HIGHLY RECOMMEND dry shrinking and being careful of the bottom corners. 

    the back window is a sneaky lil bastard lol. Harder than it looks.

     

    SUPER EASY!!!!

     

     

  13. Gaskets : Front door panels are a pain in the bean sack to pull back!!. Gaskets came out easy. Back doors were easy to pull back.

     

    Tinting: VERY easy to tint! The door panels are just ANNOYING!

     

    *putting the gaskets back in and putting the back door panels back on without taking the whole panel off was worse than a frog humping your leg!!*

    pulling the gaskets off the back doors is NOT WORTH IT!

     

    Id rate the difficulty a 1 out of 5.

    5 meaning the hardest.
