Cabs with tinted window (post pictures)


Recommended Posts

Hi,

I'm considering tinting my windows on my Black 02 Cab.....I'd really appreciate if you guys would post pictures of your Cabs with tinted windows, so I can get an idea of the "look"......especially on Black cars

Thanks

My buddy has a 2000 Ocean Blue cab, blue top and light grey interior, and tinted windows. I don't have pictures but it looks pretty good. The only challenge is the plastic rear window. I don't think you can tint the plastic windows. I guess you could tint the newer glass rear windows. This is the only thing that has kept me from tinting the windows on my 2000 cab.

Hey Skipp, it's Russ from down at Busbin in Charlotte. I had my windows tinted with 35% all around. I replaced my top with a new one and the rear window is tinted plastic and is around 15 to 20%. Guy's when you replace your 2001 and older tops, this is your chance to get the tinted plastic. I think the tint looks great and adds to the car. I also just put on 3 piece 19" DCR Wheels. It's starting to look right. Come by and see me when you around. Hey, do you have one of the durametric software readers to turn off lights and run data test on our P-Cars?

Russ,

The car looks great...I saw it out front one day....who did your tint? I'm getting ready to do it myself. I don't have a code reader, but search for some recommendations. Did you get a factory top or what?

Thanks.

A local guy here did the tint. His name is Jason and he use to do all of Lighting Mike's tinting here in charlotte. He pretty much now does all of Hendrick's BMW and Porsche cars. (Hendrick) charge you and sub it out to him. I paid him $100. He told me $75 and I told him that was not enough. I think Hendrick gets around $250 for one of these cars. If you want his info let me know or come by the store. The top is a German canvas copy of the OEM top. I bought it at www.topsonline.com It ran me around $600 for the top and another $750 to install. Good luck with the tint job and I saw you put the X74 suspension on the car. It looks great, come by and take for a ride to see how the new setup feels.

Russ
