don't see any sense attracting Johnny Law if i don't have to. i can see some tiny bubbles, but after the settling period, i will take 'er back in for a touch up.

Default real nice. damn i like the new a4 body style :) question.... on your back window.. is the tint ....

laying totally flat over the raised dotted edges of the window? like when you run your thumb across it to push it flat, does it stick for a second then left a little? and on the defrosted lines, do you see small gaps along the length of the lines, or no tiny gaps at all?

sorry for the questions, Im just trying to find a tinter that can do the rear window like that, and want to see how meticulous California tint was. I think the job i got done at LAtint is better than every car ive looked at since i got mine done to compare, but i think they coulda done a better job on the back window. and from the responses I got in the a6 forum about seeing glare from the defroster lines from headlights behind you, it sounds like gaps along the defroster line are very common. i check closely on ever car i see around town, and i havent seen one without em. but I KNOW its possible, cause there are spots on my lower rear window that have absolutely no visible gaps and looks like factory tint.

Default oh btw.. tint looks great on your car. :) your 50% looks like my 38% cause of your darker....

interior. i have a tan interior, so it seems to make it look a little lighter (duh) in pictures etc.

btw, anyone know the factory tint %? like 95% or something maybe?

Default btw, the tint is totally flat over the rear defroster lines...

when i push down on it, it doesn't move. i do notice some glares from headlights behind me at night time from the tint, but maybe i just need to get used to it.

Default Used to have them on my B5 A4... i will be putting new tires on tomorrow...

235/40/18's. Can't tell much difference in ride because i only kept the stock wheels on for 60 miles. I don't really like any of the wheels offered by audi so i'm glad i had a set of 18's that fit the bolt pattern. I will be mounting Toyo Proxes T1r's tomorrow.
