Window Tint peeling issue

antman22

Just wanted to vent because I had to take my Z in today to get the passenger side window tint fixed (started peeling in the corner). Dealership gave me a Versa as a loaner. Boy is it depressing.

Bright side: I can floor it for about 10 minutes and still be within the speed limit. NO chance of a ticket ::knock on wood::
Down side: A cute girl saw me walk out of it in the parking garage. FML.
Bright side: The visibility in the car is AMAZING compared to the Z heh.
Down side: Its a Versa.

I will pray tonight that the tint will be fixed and ready for pick up by tomorrow afternoon.

That's all. Just needed to vent my sadness of not having my car.

You played the cute girl thing wrong. You should have told her that your sports car was at home but you were driving the Versa to "be green."

Issue- the parking garage was at my apartment complex. haha

Haha it could be worse - they gave me a old beater sentra that was beat to hell when I dropped it off for my tint. They made up for it the next time and gave me a g35, though.

I drove a versa once, 0-60 in a minute or so, haha.

Hope you get your car back tomorrow!

I wasn't even aware Versas could reach 60mph.

Anyways, make sure your tint person clamps the door button down while installing the tint. This way, the window rolling up when you close the door won't be an issue. In addition, a lot of tint places (the one that I chose included) slide the tint half an inch or so underneath the inner weather stripping so even if you were to roll your windows up and down, it wouldn't peel at all.

Or they usually just unscrew the door ajar sensor in the door jam.

Doing that would worry me that some one would close one of the doors with the window up.

huudoo

as stated above, their are 1 screws on each door jam,
light switch has a rubber boot around it remove the screws so the windows don't auto roll down and up...
...u can shot the doors with the windows up just don't slam them
let the tint seal for 2 days and you should not have that problem.
that's what I did and it worked fine....

rudi

There was a thread about this problem and a fix. Can't seem to find it though.

My tint is did the same thing on the passenger side at the front of the window. I took a sharp knife and cut the corner where it was peeling...you can't tell unless you know to look. Also, on the bright side, my tint came with a lifetime warranty. So, if it gets worst, which it doesnt look like it, I'll get it replaced.

You need to tell the tint shop (or dealer) to remove the door panel so they can get the tint down deep past the panel. otherwise when the widow seals after you have closed the door, it just chews up those corners.

same thing happened to my driver's side window this past weekend. I have to take it into the tint shop sometime to have them redo it.
