Has anyone in here put additional tinting on the factory tint? I have a 1999.5 Pathfinder and was thinking about making the factory tint darker.

would it be better to take the factory tint off and re-do with darker tint?

you cant remove the stock tint as it is factory colored glass... not a separate layer of tint.

i put medium tint over the factory stuff (rear only) and ended up with what i consider to be limo

Oh, good to know about the factory tint. I didn't know it was colored glass (didn't really check). I don't want it to dark to the point where it becomes unsafe. I'd like it to be maybe 20-30% darker.
