I concur! crappy install. Take it back now.
Kenny,
Did you ever get this fixed?
I just had mine done today - 15% all around - and have the same exact issue. Tiny little bubbles, hundreds of them - on ALL the windows.
The installer swore it was just fresh and needed to 'cure' and dry. Said it would take longer to do so because of winter...
I'm curious if your windows got better once cured/dried?

Thanks for the reminder, I should have posted an update earlier.Originally Posted by biju
Yes, the million little bubbles went away after a week or two in underground parking at work (out of the cold). The view out the side windows is near perfect now. I have to look very hard when it's very cold to see any little diffractions from the bubbles.
I'm happy with the job now - though I do have about 4 or 5 tiny air bubbles on the rear windows at the edges. They are more visible there because the tint is so dark. I'll see if I get picky enough to have them fix them in summer.
Try putting a car warmer in there for a few days and be patient. It paid off for me (actually I was procrastinating and the issue resolved itself ) .
Good Luck man.
Kenny,
Your muffler probably 'vibrated' those bubbles out!

I'm using halogens to try to heat the windows in the garage... so far seems to help, but the 'fish eye' bubbles are still driving me nuts! ha.

so i went out for a drive today to hang out by the river.. on the way back i saw a nice looking camaro IROC.. stopped to investigate it.. turns out it was parked infront of a very poorly marked customizing shop, i was talkin to the guy inside about the VX and he came out to look and was so excited about it he offered to tint my windows for $130 just so he would have a chance to work on it!... now i too have lots of little bubbles... cant wait til they go away, its gonna be purdy!
