how to mess up tint.

Hands down, the original poster is dumb![Icon No2](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/icon_no2.gif)
Kid, you're 16. If you can't find the testicular fortitude to bring your complaint to the tint company then having shitting tint is the least of your worries.
It's YOUR car [Read; daddy's car] so you have to learn to man up to situations and stand your ground.
The fact that you would consider molesting your car for leverage in a petty dispute says a lot about your character.
Best of luck.

First off coming on here and posting a thread and then being a complete *** to the others who have been on this site for months / years is "NOT" a good way to get a question answered at all.
So basically you come on here and from what i'm reading you bought a used car and don't like the tint. Now your asking us to supply you with ways to sabotage it. Because you don't want to pay the 160 dollars it will take to replace the tint. Second off you should have known when you bought the car that the tint sucked. Whether they did a crappy job on the tint or not is at this point not the issue. Because if they did a crappy job and the warranty was able to be passed onto you, you would not be here complaining about it.
So not only now are you asking us to help you sabotage your car to get a free tint out of it. Your saying that you want to pose as the guy who actually bought the tint. Thus committing fraud. You want to tack on anything else? Maybe you want us to hold them hostage while they do the tint for you also? Go get a life and pay the freaking 160 dollars it will take to replace it. You knew full well when you bought the car that either you didn't "like" the tint or that the tint was not done correctly. Your also saying that the tint was done the day before you bought this "used car" and there is no way that the previous owner could have done anything to mess it up. Your arrogance amazes me.
As to the previous posters, I'm quite sure he knows that the warranty is not transferable, and there is most likely a clause in there stating that if you mess it up, it's still going to cost you to fix it. Seeing as it's not their fault you screwed it up. If he didn't he wouldn't already be to the stage of "I need to mess this up to get a free tint". I will laugh when you do all this and they still don't give you a tint out of it, and your rolling around with shitty windows all over town. Make that be your reminder.

I bought the car last week tinted. I dont know if the company would take kindly to a 16 year old 5'7 kid telling them they did a bad job. Im no scared kid but i just dont think they would re-do it, you know? It needs to be bubbled up. Im thinking of peeling a little bit back and pouring some water down it on a hot day or take a hairdryer, and make the water bubble **** up.

Ok, thanks. I was only a dick in defense of being attacked . Yes, I knew the tint sucked when I bought the car but the guy said it had a lifetime warranty, which put my worry to rest. I never said the guy got the tint done a day before? THE TINT WAS DONE IN 04 or 2004.

Your desire to commit fraud means you probably shouldn't be listening to what you think. Just because you COULD doesn't make it morally or ethically right to do so.
Oh yeah, you'll need a receipt if you were going to defraud them, and when they see your name isn't the same as the name on the receipt you're busted.

The only problem that he will face is that lifetime warranties like window tinting rarely if ever on cars extend to anyone but the original purchaser. The same thing happens when you buy tires. From what he's posted I think he's figured this much out. It's the reason that he wanted to pose as the guy who purchased it and not himself. Because he would then have to explain that the guy who bought it also does not own the car anymore, and even if they did, they would never give him a darker tint. They would replace it with the same exact tint that he just destroyed.

Huge hole is huge
Something tells me that the warranty isn't transferable to second parties ![Lol2](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/lol2.gif)
Either get used to it or man up and pay for new tint. Quit being a baby about it and screw a company out of their work because you want to roll with the 'cool kid's' darker tint.

I second complaining to parents. They spent ~20k (Cars have tax on them if you want to argue plus I assume they are paying insurance, being under there name still is paying for your insurance ps)
Should be no reason why they can't fork over an extra $150 for your complaints. If I had 20k to spend on a kid, I'd have $150 to shut him up.
OR
If you did buy it, stop destroying the economy more and BUY NEW TINT. It's little pisses like you that are killing small businesses.

yeah because my parents bought my car and pay for all of my gas and insurance. No. I pay for 1/2 car and gas and insurance. I have no idea where you got the 20k number, but obviously you haven't done your research. Stop making these references to daddys money, because that simply isnt true. Just because i dont like having a halfway decent tint job doesn't mean im trying to be a cool kid. You guys are just douche bags. I just ask a simple question, defend my self from people like ^^^^. And i get flamed. If you aren't going to contribute the the thread, you can leave.

It's a Cavalier
Youre asking a ridiculous and general question about window tint so you can defraud a business.
You don't need to ask how to destroy your tint in an RX8 forum. You can ask questions about your fradulent activities somewhere else less respectable.
I'm sure google can point you in the direction of plenty of broke *** scumbags who want to teach you how to rip people off. You're not going to find them here.
Glad to help!

The people working at the shop are (most likely) not stupid, and will be able to tell if you destroy it yourself. Plus, trying to cheat them out of free tint is a dick move... they're there so they can make a living too
just wondering... what do you do at 16 for work that you can afford half an 8 (gas & ins included). Not saying you cant, but doubt I coulda pulled that off at that age
