Now starting to finally get moving on my "triple-black" look that I want. Next, if I dont do exhaust & Ecu, I plan on getting some dark wheels.
Anyway, here she is with 15% tint.

Very nice...black on black looks sweet... be careful though... i got mine tinted the week after christmas...and the tint is so screwed up now... dont roll your windows down...and go in for the checkup after ac ouple days...
i made the mistake of going through a drivethrough after a week and a half under the assumption that my windows would be fully cured by then... i was wrong and since subaru doesnt have any door sils... well... my tint decided to peel... luckily i have a lifetime warranty on their service and i'm having them take it off and re-do it when it gets warm... it cures so much ebtter when its warm out... good luck and i hope you dont have the same problems i did/do

thanks bro.
The tinter told me that it should be set after a week, and that was true with my other car. Ill be careful when I first do it.

thanks guys, i appreciate the compliments.
I have noticed a few bubbles though... I am hoping they will go away so I dont have to go back. I guess I will have to wait and see.

i got my bubbles on the rear... i dont have any other problems besides the ones listed in my first reply... but the guys said it takes awhile to cure in the cold..so if they dont go away...try to work them out... and he also suggested leaving the car in your garage for a couple days if you have the time...getting the windows to a decent temp (not 4 degrees like its been outside) and going over them w/ a low heat hair dryer or w/ a heat gun from far away...just to dry them out and work out the bubbles... the place where i got mine done made me go back for a 3-5 day checkup... so hopefully you wont have to...but like i said...since its cold out...definately give yourself AMPLE amout of time for ur windows to cure... and try not to rub the sides or anything... you will be kicking urself in the balls

We are't allowed to have the front windows and winddshield tinted past 45% and the rear past 20% I believe....

The all-around tints give the car a great look!
Good luck when u get the wheels, I was thinking about powdercoating my scoobie BBSes gunmetal or matte black.
