i have 15% all around but I have 5% on my drivers side window (do to a miscommunication with the shop), I think it looks sick. I love sitting in traffic and not having anyone be able to see me at all.

Yeah I love them, just trying to be careful not to get pulled over, I feel like a fugetive, hiding behind cars when I see cops. This is it though the day after, I am worried though because I have small bubbles on the drivers and passenger door but everyone keeps telling me thats normal and it goes away after a couple of days. But I will try to get a picture up after I wash it this was the car wet and dirty. lol

Looks sweet.

But from my experience bubbles only get bigger. You can TRY and squeeze them out to the edge, but once its slightly dry it wont work. Go back and try and get them to do it again.

that not good...bit of advice dont use your rear defrost....it will bubble your back window....if the place that had it dont wont fix the job they did incorrectly...then you could alway try the DIY method with a needle pop them and squeegie them in towards the pin hole to release the air.

If you had them done professionally the bubbles are completely normal. I have 5% all the way around and it took like 4-7 days for the bubbles to go away, and now it looks awesome. what my place did tell me to do was push real hard along the dot matrix with your thumb every now and then. You should be fine. i WOULDNT touch or puncture the bubbles!!!

Well I called the place today and well I made an appointment for monday to have them redone if its not gone by monday. And they have a five year warranty on it so yea they will re do it. But no need to worry about rear defrost. I dont have it, lol. But even if I did I wouldnt use it. I have seen what it does. My girlfriends mother (my mother in law) has her rear window so bad from the rear defrost you cant even see threw the back window. hehe.

I had bubbles in mine too. Takes a couple of days in the sun to get them to dry up. It looks like no sun there... I would give it a bit more time, or drive the car with the heat on and warm the insides up.
