Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Has anyone had this done to their 996? I am wondering if it is worth the outlay, does it make the car look better do you think? Is the film type ok or do you need a specialist who will remover the glass and then do it that way? thanks

POST 2Original post

POST 3Original post

A fair few companies seem to do this treatment and I quite like the look, but haven't had it done. However, at the risk of 'teaching granny...' make sure the tint applied complies with the law - its not worth the consequencies[ ]. Paul.

POST 4Original post

When I got my 996 Turbo, the previous owner had the rear window and two side windows tinted. At first I thought it didn't look too bad, but afterwards I thought about it some more living with it and preferred it without, So I removed the tinting. I must admit I prefer it this way. Personal preference really. Below is a picture with the tinting done

POST 5Original post

It does divide opinion. A lot of cars in the tertiary market have it done - Golfs, BMWs, Mercs, Japanese... along with bigger wheels, lowered suspension, led lights... Not my taste, particularly on a 911. But, it's a personal choice, and at least it can be removed, unlike the factory spec.

POST 6Original post

My cab came with the rear screen tinted. I dont really mind and its good to know that if i want to, it can be removed. But as mentioned before, be careful of what level of tints you do (if you decide to go ahead). Personally, I would not tint the car at all but thats just my opinion.
