Window tint on 4 series Dot Matrix??

Hello was wondering if anyone had any closeup pictures on the tint job with the dot matrix thats on the door windows on a 4 series that there is no window trim. All the windows have the dot matrix towards the rear of the window and was wondering how it looked before i spent money on the tint job

side, back, and back quarter. This was after 4 days so im unsure if it was fully cured or whatnot yet, bbut ill take a look at my car later and give update. the dot matix is very unnoticeable from a couple feet away, you literally have to be a foot or less away to barely notice.

Are you supposed to tint over the dots on the door windows? I thought it helps against wear and tear of the seals.

RPM Superstore in Richmond, VA apparently has a technique that they use to make sure that the dots blend in with the rest of the tint. I called them up and they swore to me up and down that they are one of the few installers on the east coast that know how to manage that. Might wanna look em up and see what they say?

I had a local place do my 435 GC and it looked like crap on the dot matrix. Some places it adhered and other places you could see it wasn't. Since my car is mineral gray on black interior, you could really notice it.

I asked them to remove it all. I'm not trying to find a better installer.

Ok so i finally got my car tinted yesterday by a very very repeatable guy. He wasent cheap either her used LLumar 15%. I dropped it off at 12am and picked it up at 5pm. So by this after noon it will have been done for a full 24 hours. from the inside it looks perfect. i have a couple shots of the dot matrix from outside dont know if it needs more drying time???
