one piece windows - tint color quality?

I'm seriously thinking about buying a set of the one piece windows and wanted to know if you thought the tint looks green or is it like a new high quality tint film. Also what % is it?
Thanks.

The tint is bronze like late model factory tint. I really like mine.

My widow kit is 35% Euro Grey. I went to a glass shop in town here and having them cut a tempered back window in 35% grey tint.(not laminated true heat treated tempered) He confirmed it was grey not bronze. $110 for a new back window. I did not want cheep window wint on my windows. I have never seen any last. And the do it yourself tint was nearly $40. I am going with a clear front window.

Later, Mario

Here are a couple of mine.. Inside and outside. The tint should look great with the colour of your truck.

It's not that dark. I have gone to reach inside my cab and hit my hand on the window because it was up. If you stop by a glass shop they can show you a grey 35% tint sample you can see for yourself exactly what it will look like.

Brothers and us are out of stock until the end of May, not sure how many Brothers has on backorder but we have a bunch. The last shipment of glass was in October. If you want them you better get on the list because it is first come first served.

MOTHERTRUCKERS,

Do you know if I can get replacement outside scrapers ? Thinking of getting a set incase the kit does come off the market in the next couple of years.

Ed,
I just talked to you a minute ago. I should have checked the thread first. I know you took down my number. Give me a call when you get them back in stock.
Thanks,
Taylor
