What did you guys do? im tired of using the shades, and without them would look so much better. I had regular tint film in mind, and also some spray on tint. which do you guys suggest? post some pics too!

you can't tint them (what my tint person said) they come factory tinted and thats it. somthing about how they have to flex so much that you can't tint them.

does it wrinkle?

I cant imagine the tops flexing enought to have a visible effect ??? But...Ive been wrong b4

I got a suggestion, get black adhesive vinyl (the stuff that decal shops cut out letters and decals for cars out of), or have a decal shop cut it to fit your T-Tops, and just apply that. Whole issue solved.

It's not really flexing. The film traps heat and will crack the glass.

I have my tops tinted with 5% and I love it.I dont have pictures but they have been tinted now for two years .The heat gun makes the tint take form.

Ive had mine tinted with 5% over the factory tint for almost 3 years now. Still looks as good as the day I got it done.

I tinted my own with %5, its been almost a year now, and it still looks great, I dont think I could go back to un-tinted T's.

I had mine tinted with 5% over the factory tint over a year ago and have had no problems out of it. I am planning to put another layer of 5% over it soon to make it a little darker, but I hate the t-tops anyway so I don't really care if any light gets in.

Arachnotron

Mine are tinted, and I haven't had any problems.

LvDemKings

Exact same here, over a year no problems @ 5%.

have any of you guys used the niteshades tint? for those who've done it with film, how did you guys cut it exactly to the glass?

horsekilla 95TA

Nightshades is a spray tint by VHT mostly used for exterior lights.

any pics?

Mine is film. I just took it to a shop when I had my rear window done. It's worth it considering it was something like $25 per top. BTW, anyone I've ever seen do it themselves usually messes it up. I wish somebody would post pics of doing it right themselves.
