  1. Hi Everyone!

     

    I'm new to the forum and this is my first post here. I am in need of your professional opinions here. I had my little old (2005) Camry’s windows tinted 5 days ago. Not a luxury or sports car but still of some value to me of course. I have taken great care of it. The shop I went to is a local reputable shop.  Very courteous and friendly service with great reviews as well.

     

    Long story short, I met with the salesperson and was told about different film options they have.  The shop installs 3M and BlackMax. I decided to go with what he said was BlackMax Titanium window film which is supposed to be a HP tint. 30 on front windows and 20 on rear windows and back glass. I felt I was getting a good deal.  I paid $350 for the film install + they removed old film from all windows and the rear glass.  When I got home I noticed a few small bubbles here and there. No big deal. They have pretty much disappeared now. 

    My concern though is that there are some gaps where the front windows (on the right sides) meet the edge of the door. Not huge gaps but noticeable for sure. The quarter windows also have gaps around them and the tint doesn’t appear to have adhered completely at the bottom of the glass. The tint on the front windows have an uneven gap around both of them at the top. The rear windows tint goes all the way up to the top of the glass and looks great.  I was told they use a computer program and the film is cut to precisely fit the vehicle. It appears to me the tint on the front windows and quarter windows wasn’t put on correctly though. 

    I realize I didn’t pay $750 or more for a tint job. I’m. not looking for a perfect tint job either. I just thought that I could expect a little more when dealing with a reputable shop. 

    Any advice would be helpful. Should I ask them to redo the tint on the front windows and quarter windows or just chalk it up to a hard lesson learned?  

    Thank you in advance for your input!
