The tint I got off eBay was a vinyl material. A lot thicker than window tint, and a lot more durable. Just message the seller, and they'll tell you what it is.

its smoked vinyl, like what stripes are made from. It flexes better than window tint and is much more durable.

I bought the tint off ebay and even though I had stated that I wanted 50%, the seller sent me blackout tint.....it's super dark.

I didn't complain though because after I put it on, I liked the way it looked.

It's pretty tough and strong. I've had mine for close to a year now and I just cleaned them recently because dust gets underneath after a couple of months if you are rough with them (I use a pressure washer at the self car wash, so the tint would peel back and I'd just slap my hand against them without being careful).

Really easy to put on. If you've ever put on vinyl before and have used the soapy water/alcohol mix when applying, installation is a piece of cake.

I'd say they are well worth it for around $20.
