Ceramic Tint 20% all the way around.

Looks great. How much darker was the 20% ceramic compared to the stock tint on the rear windows? Debating on doing just the front two or the whole truck.

You could definitely save some money and only do the front 2. And I would suggest the rear windshield personally but I haul a lot of tools and I don't like people to see that. With the rear doors the sunshade blocks a ton if you use them that will save a lot on the ceramic cost. All 9 windows was 500 something for the tint. Ceramic ain't cheap but it's noticiably cooler inside now.

This might be a dumb question, but for the back do they go over the factory tint or remove and replace?

 

[DetroitST]

I believe the factory tint is inside the glass. So to my knowledge it is in addition to the factory tint.

 

[rsegreto]

gotcha thanks!

does ceramic tint interfere with radar detector?

I don’t run one, but Google says:

[DetroitST]

If you run shit ceramic yes. Non metallic ceramic has no interference.

 

[UNBROKEN]

No issues here with ceramic and a radar detector.

 

[DetroitST]

Could ask for a piece of scrap tint and put it over your detector to tell.

It was yesterday, but found someone that wanted to ditch their roof rails. Made the swap I’m the middle of a 3000+ mile road trip, lol.

You dropped your headliner in the middle of a 3000 mile trip?

Washed the Beast and installed OEM splash guards (AKA Mud Flaps)

Thanks for the pic. I've been on the fence about it and you have the same paint & wheels. May need to wait a month to let my credit card cool off

Yesterday I installed the 2nd set of black Gorilla 96643BDX lug nuts (the 1st set only shipped with 19 nuts ) then today I had 35% Xpel HP applied to the front row windows, and clear Xpel PPF applied to the headlights and fogs at Sunshade in Troy MI. I wanted the fogs tinted but Eric talked me out of it after experiencing lens cracks with LaminX.

Yeah, no real worries when you do a little planning and have a good friend who also knows how to turn a wrench and has a ridiculous amount of Snap On tools
