Default 2024 450H+ F Sport re: window tint

just bought 450H+ F Sport.... lots of tech and takes time to learn and navigate menus. Love the plug in hybrid and 37 mi range covers 90% of my daily driving. Only problem is finding a front side window tint film (bronze/brown) that will match the factory 'colored' windows in back row and back window. Any thoughts? most places now just carrying gray/smoke ceramic tint. I think back windows are about 25-30 and be happy with 35 on front.

You can also have a tint shop remove the current and redo it.

The factory tint cannot be removed, the glass itself is tinted.

Probably ask a tint shop. Nothing to remove but they may know of a way to match the tint.

From his posts it sounds like he’s already talked to tint shops, since he discussed what they stock. Asking owners who have the car what they have done is a pretty solid plan.

metup with my detailer.
  • planning ceramic tint of course
  • full body 6ml suntek hydrophobic ppf
  • wrap the roof and side mirrors in glossy carbon fiber ppf to match up with the rcf and 911
  • paint the lower aero pieces black instead of the brushed aluminum.
  • also thinking a roof rack for skis, bikes, maybe a slim cargo pod.
  • possibly paint the calipers red...lol. someone posted in a fb group with them painted. didn't look half bad.
not mine....

my 2 cents
@MrPrius you should at least look at gen 5 (2023-) Pruises
