all im using is a razor blade and windex. scrap off the tint with the razor blade then take the windex spray the window and scrap it again with the blade to get the glue off. then just clean it and it should look great.

exactly, I'd also turn on the heater

hopefully the tint isn't too bad or you'll end up scraping it off

I had to do the same

took time but it came out good

get a pack of razor blades and a shop vac

unplug your thermal rear window thing as when you scrape the tint off you will ruin it

carcrzy920 · 10-21-2008, 03:44 PM

yea that heater thing is working really good. im almost done with the rear window. thanks

hopefully you were careful with the rear defroster traces. scraping at it WILL kill them. post pix of before and after

420sx · 10-22-2008, 04:35 PM

people still leave on long trips with no

a) GPS

b) Google map directions equivalent.

your laziness cost you about 100 in gas right? you should print those out next time. good luck with your new car

carcrzy920 · 10-22-2008, 06:01 PM

i got the before pic and im about half way done now with the rear. i just didnt get to work on it all that much today since it was really cold and im sick and im being very carefull.

i did print them out but they left out a couple roads i had to take and didnt tell me to take them. so i got lost till i got a new map and found out where to go.

Very anti-climatic story. But nice S13 those dents can be fixed easily.
