you just did the fronts? what was frustrating about them? The top line?
I tint a lot, and our trucks are actually really easy when looking at other vehicles.
it looks good from that distance and angle. Make sure to leave them up for a day, so you dont mess up the alignment or force dirt up into the film.
good job man.

yea ericemery it looks good but there are flaws in it. Im not exactly the most patient person... and it wasnt to bad until i started cutting jagged lines and it would show. But if you look at alot of other DIY tints... its not bad
And the part that was frusterating was the top line and getting the 2 bottom corners without ripping them

a handy tip of your fighting with the bottom tuck... pull the door panel off. ours come off so easy, leaving it on is almost silly to me now.
the top lines are easy once you develop a technique. I like to hold my olfa knife at an angle so that it looks something like this \ to the top of the window. (if that makes any sense.) and remember to break off a new blade every other cut... you would be amazed how fast they dull.

Looks good hendrixx.
I took my truck the third day I had it to get the windows tinted. I think it adds alot to the appearance of any vehical. I went 20% on the fronts and 15% on the rear. I left the rear passanger windows at the factory level. Im thinking about blacking out the rear passanger's, but Im not sure yet. We take every car my family and friends own to the same place, so we get a pretty good deal. Lifetime warranty and a quality job on my truck for $100 cash.
