Does anyone know if you can tint over those dots around the windows?

yea you cant tint around them but it does not look that good from the outside. I had my rear window tinted 5% and up on the top of the window there are a ton of dots so i put about 6in black Vinal strip over it to cover it. It looks good in my opinoin.

I have 5% over mine too and it looks fine from a distance. The pony decal on the back kinda takes the focus off of it I guess.

Eh, doesnt look too good to me. Id recommend going to a good shop that uses a heat gun and takes time in their work.

Mine looks perfectly fine and its just tinted around the dots. Plus the shop I went to doesnt recommend tinting over the dots cause they said itd peel easily.
