    well I've de-tinted 3 out of 5 windows, and it looks way better now, still got to do the passenger side front window and the rear window(looks like its going to be a pain).
    all it took was some windex and a razor blade.

      Yep. Thats all I used. A lot of people think it's harder than it is. It just takes some time and patience. The part that tends to stick on there is the glue. If you work at it with a sharp razor, it will come right off. Also, rubbing it with windex helps.

      G/L and post pics when you're finished.

          yeah its pretty simple, if you spray the window with windex and then lightly scrape it with the razor all the glue comes off.
          I'll post pics probably tomorrow after work or the next morning.

                      here some pics of de-tinted goodness.
                      still got to do the back window and then I'm done, I think the car looks way cleaner with no tint.

                            regular outdoor spray paint and then spray it with clear coat before it dries:) probably could of just bought VHT nightshade but they don't sell that anywhere near me.
