    Just got the Taco and the wife's 4Runner tinted. If you are in the Raleigh NC area def worth getting this guy to do it.

    Looks great it's amazing how tinted windows can change the appearance of a vehicle. What percentage did you get on the vehicles?

    You can just tint on top of the factory tinted windows. I've done that On a few Toyotas. I just have my tint guy use a lighter film on the factory tinted windows and a darker film on the front untinted windows to match the %

    its a Toyota truck and that's all the modifications needed
    its a little tough getting your eyes adjusted in the morning or at night after tinting

    Nice! I did the same on my 4Runner and it works really well. Not too dark at night but keeps the truck much cooler during the day

    It's amazing how much relief your eyes get after adding tint. Down here in Miami it's absolutely required!!
