What I have now is illegal so might as well go all in
Buying a 4wd is a waste for me lol. My jeeps were 4wd and I put them in 4wd time each on the actual jeep trails and that's it. I'd strip your tint and do all new. Different brands of tint that has faded over time will look like *** with new film over the top of it

I didn't even think about the whole fading now that creates a whole domino effect. If I pull the tint might as well put new glass on both front windows because they're scratched, and if I'm doing that I should put the power sliding rear window on it and then when they pull the tint the drivers side rear window has factory tint but that's the only window so maybe I should replace the passenger side rear window so that it will all match perfectly. And my windshield has a coupl small chips so might as well put a windshield in it as well. Damn it that's a lot of money to do it the right way lol!

Well to do it the right way that's the only way to go. I just priced all the glass and it's $1800 lmao!

I would at least replace the rear window that's factory tint with a window that matches the rest of your windows. Then at least you've got a level platform for whatever direction you choose to go with tinting and the other windows.

I mean $1800 isn't that bad considering the windshield on my cayenne cost $1200 Now I need to rethink my plan of attack for tint lol!

That's when it had the pro tech and that toolbox ended up going through the window of the 6.0L that's parked next to.
