I took mine to a guy who dose the local dealers work. He got the dot matrix perfect. Don't know how he did it or care. I had my truck and Sky done at another shop. I had thought they had done a good job as well. Then I had the Vette done by this guy and learned there are different quality's of tint. The tint on my other vehicles looks foggy when it's bright outside. The Vette looks clean. I had the truck redone as it's just the side fronts anyway. The rest came from the factory. It's much better now. I may have the sides redone on the Sky next but the little back windows not worth the trouble. My Vette is Black so I think it looks best with tint. It has 20% rear and 35% sides.

Here's mine plus the Sky
