I prefer the brow straight across, I think it looks much better and of course is more functional adding more tint than a curve.

Never had a tinted brow before, or front windows for that matter. Will never have a truck without them now! The brow took a bit to get used to, but on morning drives and my vacation trips it was awesome! As others have said, go with 5%.

Not the best picture, but all I have of the brow on my truck.

How do you like it there?? I always skeptical of going there because its not touches and I'm afraid its going to scratch my truck. I have a rust proofing appt next week with them so i hope it doesn't get scratched when its washed.

I hand wash mine in the summer as well, can't wait to do that with the new one! I know how you feel, I can't wait until summer to put my mods on too Nice truck by the way

P.S. where did you go for the window tint??? I'll probably go to auto trenzz they are like $60+ cheaper than everyone else. They did my last 3 vehicles, messed up on one before by tinting over a bug on my drivers window... but they peeled it off and re did it when i brought it back.....yes they tinted over a bug

Hey Hey Black Thunder Bay

I don't mind Central car wash I only go there because I like getting the interior done once a month and haven't really found another place in town like them unless you know of some place better? I have never gotten any scratches from there on any of my vehicles but you do have to manually fold your mirrors in yourself because my very first wash there with my truck they didn't and the bent my passenger mirror backwards almost to its breaking point. Not going to lie I cried a little when I seen that lol. As far as undercoating goes I get mine done at Rust Check. I paid 200 this year for the gel coat one and I'll do the regular next year and flip back and forth.

Auto Trendzz did my window tint only the two front windows at 35% for $140.00 and my brow at 20% for $40.00. I advise you to go 20% on front windows and limo on the brow. They have lifetime warranty which is nice because my drivers side window cracked because it didn't cure right as I had it done in November and rolled my windows down to soon so there redoing it in the spring for me and at the same time I'm limo tinting the brow and putting on the FX4 Hood Decal. I chose the tint % based in me being 19 when I bought the truck and didn't want to attract batting with the law but I could care less now should've went darker.

I forgot to mention thanks for the comment on my Truck. She's my baby and I've been slowly customizing her to be different then every other FX4 in TBay. I think I finally found a rim that I might get that I haven't seen in Tbay yet TIS 535B. I almost bought 18x9 Fuel Hostages last summer but ended up buying My Quad instead lol and didn't have any more money in the budget.

To Be Different than the Rest!!!!. I am also putting in the matching billet inserts in the grille in the summer. I had originally wanted my plate on the "left bread loaf" not in the centre but Ford does not make a plate bracket for that side so it went in the middle

These inserts

I paid 220 for my 4 windows, tint brow and rear window of the camper shell tinted (all with 5) tint quality will also vary the price, my local shop uses madico which is my favorite.
