I spoke to my shop this week after having the 35% tint done a couple weeks back, and its pulling up around the matrix. He gave 3 options. fist was to just deal with it, 2nd was to cut the top of the tint off and just have the matrix there, and 3rd was the vinyl. But he said with the vinyl since I did 35% it will not match up in color to the black vinyl.
So Im not sure what I want to do. I know Im not cutting the tint and leaving just the matrix to me thats not an option. So its between leaving it where its a bit clouded at the top and putting vinyl that wont quite match.

I had the same thing for 12 years on my Z06. Dot-matrix separating...
Numerous "high-end" tint shops told me this and that...nobody would guarantee the work.
Took it to a place I've been using in Thousand Oaks, CA for other cars.
1st Try..perfect and guaranteed for life.
Just find a good shop. They'll do a bit of sanding to rough it up, but if it's possible at least for a FRC.
