  • To those with tint (coupes only)

    I want to get some tint on this beast and I'm wondering if you guys had any problems with the windows indexing and peeling up the fresh tint...

    Yeah? No?

    I'm gonna do it anyway, just wondering what to expect...

    I would think if you tell your tint place they index they should comensate for it!

      Nah, I'm just worried about the tint peeling up since the window will be moving up and down so much right after the tint is applied. Btw, the tint place is me.

        Im having the dealer tint mine when I get it, so I will ask about it, and if they mess up, its free so I will have them do it over.

          You can make the windows not index.. just set the striker and shiz.. make it think the door is closed .. and then just make sure you reset it or it makes bad noises....

            I had the tint try to peel the first day on the drivers side.

            I used my finger to push it back and now the tint job looks perfect.

              i dont think it should matter because i had tints on my old car and i used the snow scrapper on that everyday. Never had problems or scratches.
              so when you do yours let it dry or sit there for a day then finally close your windows fully.

                Tint is on the inside of the windows my man.

                Anyway Kyle, tell them about the indexing, and tell them to use a blowdryer on the bottom part of the tint.

                      So there's a way to trick it into thinking the door's shut, just for the windows sake.

                        I would think as long as the tint was cured you shouldn't have any problems. During that time tho it will be vulnerable to peeling since it pushed into the weatherstrip pretty good.

                          Just disconnect the battery and it'll disable the indexing until you re-program the indexing.

                          This way you can keep your windows in one position for the 2-3 days it takes to dry, then you can reprogram the indexing after that.

                            Better yet can't you disable it in the DIC? Then it wouldn't reset everything.
