the guy who tinted the window must've been a tit! its possible to take it off but be patient and try not to ripp the heating elements off the window if its the rear.

if you want it absolutely "percfecto" get all your windows replaced :lol: , but seriously it'll look like that, its not that bad, but you know when you find one blemish, your heart feels like shit and you walk around looking for more and more. its expected to get some small bubbles

i tried doing myself on my first car, wasted shit loads of tinting film :lol:. so obviously the next car i had it done professionally. dont even attempt the rear window yourself because of the curvetour (spelling?) of the window. even a pro will find it really hard to keep all the blemishes away.

yeah... if its the tinting film then yes. its really hard to get the film to go on perfectly without too many blemishes. the speckles will just be small airbubbles. does it look really buggered?
