Tinting the Windows: 06 GT
I was wondering. . . for those of you who have tinted your windows already. . . did you have any problem with the windows dropping down a fraction of an inch when you open the door. . . how do you get around this?. . . or is it even a problem, like, can you just push the tint further down from the inside where there is no gap or what. . . any help would be apprectiated. . . Thanks

At the place I got mine done the stuck some type of rod in the door lock when it was open to make the door think that it was closed so the window would stay up all of the way. When the tint was done they cracked the windows down a bit (so they wouldn't go up and down when the door opens and closes) and told me not to move them for 2 to 3 days. I highly recomend gettng some kind of window felt installed if you dont have it, my tint is scratched and I am most likley going to get it re done with some felt next time.

Same here...got my windows done 2 days ago as well....the place i took it to tinted all the way down despite the fact that i forgot to tell them about the window issue. if you take it to a decent shop, they should know what they're doing without you having to tell them. good tip on the window felt though....i may have to look into that.

RE: Tinting the Windows: 06 GT
Anybody know how much it is to get tint done professionally? I have a Grand Am and I bought the window sticker tint and put it on myself. It was only about $20 and it worked out well. Still havent done the back window yet. Just looking for an idea of how much it would cost to get it done instead of doing it myself.
