I Made A Mistake By Putting 5% Tint On My Windows

[@B_ran_dan]

I have the same truck as you and love your videos! I just added remote start on mine today from Amazon for a hundred bucks and it took only 10 minutes to install and I love it! I haven’t noticed if your truck had it or not so I figured I’d pass it to you

[@KickinItWithQ]

Nice man! Cool lil feature to add o appreciate you supporting the channel

[@VernuuAirImaging]

Nice vid! Appreciate the content brotha. I'm thinking about tinting my front. Still undecided, but yours looks great

[@KickinItWithQ]

I appreciate it! Once you get tint you’ll never go back lol

[@seanc1824]

What’s good Q! I bought a 1500 AT4X and got my tint done at Tritek yesterday based off the strength of this vlog. I appreciate you sharing your journey with us fam and hope you plan that meet up soon. Keep it going homie, your content is A1!

[@KickinItWithQ]

What’s good bro congratulations on the new truck. The owner of the shop actually messaged me on Instagram and told me that somebody had came up after seeing the video. I appreciate you going to support and hopefully they took care of you. I’m sure they did.

[@clarkkent4991]

Excellent vid!!!! And life and biz lesson at the end. Thanks

[@KickinItWithQ]

Glad you enjoyed the video man. I definitely have fun making this one.

[@GalvezQb]

I’ve had 5% on my 1994 Chevy since I’ve owned since 2008. Never have had a problem with the laws or passing inspection. Maybe different counties are more strict than others. Super nice truck!!

[@KickinItWithQ]

Yeah man, some counties are definitely more stricter than others. I appreciate you watching.

[@stanbaldwin7993]

Love Tritek!!! They’ve done all my vehicles. I went with the 70% windshield. When you get older your vision gets worse. Lmao!!!

[@KickinItWithQ]

😂 I already know. At night time now mine is too dark at times

[@captaingti]

Good video bro keep doing you. The ceramic content of the tint is what causes it to keep the heat out. also when you go ceramic you get a more of a grey black color vs the purple you were experiencing. fI have 10% ceramic on all windows then 35% ceramic on windshield. It is a little hard to see at night, but you got to pay to play lol

[@KickinItWithQ]

Exactly bro! And you are right it does give like a black gray look but definitely a little harder to see at nighttime for sure

[@noah_eastridge8088]

i love your videos dude i have a ford f150 2016 xlt off-road package and im in the process of making it my own

[@KickinItWithQ]

I appreciate that man! Thanks for watching glad you enjoy content. Goodluck on your build

[@417garage9]

5% with a 30% windshield only way to go lol!

[@KickinItWithQ]

Lol agreed

[@Zkgod24]

Yeah if you got 20/20 vision at night

[@kryptonite77f6]

I totally agree with this statement because I run 5% on the front two and 15% over the factory rear three and 30% on the windshield

[@Okie1122]

Lol! I have to do the same thing to the wife’s cars every time! Tape off the window buttons on the door so she don’t roll it down for a couple days.

[@KickinItWithQ]

Lol that’s a must!

[@Brian-StarGazer-77]

I Loved my 5% and was ready for another layer of 20% over the 5% on my Chrysler 300 getting my F150 tinted while I’m in East Tennessee

[@KickinItWithQ]

Bet

[@Brian-StarGazer-77]

Where are you located

[@Brian-StarGazer-77]

I’d Love to build a twin for it. Everything matched

[@KickinItWithQ]

DFW area

[@johnnieroberts157]

I’m at Tri Tek right now getting my truck done. This place is off the chain and the owner is very cool.

[@KickinItWithQ]

Super cool people tell em I sent you

[@johnnieroberts157]

I did. He gave me a tour of the shop. There’s some cool projects in there.

[@KickinItWithQ]

@johnnieroberts157 nice! Glad they got you right

[@johnporter2508]

Yea january 1st no more state inspections except for smog so now its time for my self to purchase my 2500 and tint and lift

[@KickinItWithQ]

Haha yup another guy said unless you live in a major 17 counties, only rule areas are exempt

[@johnporter2508]

​@KickinItWithQ yea I live on houston lol so I still have to do smog if not than I would deffinilty would do def delete

[@lmno4515]

Moving to Texas soon with dark tint including windshield. How do you pass yearly inspections?

[@SJtoday52]

Q it’s been a while since I caught a video but I am happy for your growth, and loses brotha. That weight you wanted off is gone and your channel is still growing. Salute 🫡

[@JosePerez-sb1ep]

Did you have to cut the front wheel well to fit the wheels?

[@KickinItWithQ]

Yes!

[@JosePerez-sb1ep]

Do you have a link so that I can see what it looks like?

[@NittyNix16]

HEY BRO I GOT A ?? SO I GOT 35 BY 12 ON MY TRUCK ALL I DID WAS KEPT THE SAME TIRES JUST CHANGED THE RIMS OUT BUT I NOTICED EVERY TIME TURN TO THE RIGHT IT MAKES NOISE LIKE A GRINDING SOUND But I'm not rubbing anywhere that I can see and I had some cutting done what do you think it might be ?

[@KickinItWithQ]

Sounds like rubbing to me. Best thing to do is have someone turn the wheel while you watch to see if it’s rubbing on anything.

[@NittyNix16]

Oh okay thanks bro appreciate it 🙏🏾 💯

[@johnnieroberts157]

It could be the hub assembly. Just had mine done for that very reason.

[@Bro_wdf_you_doing]

I went with ceramic tint legal on my ram …murder out the rear windows ceramic tin is the way to go ! Keeps truck so cool in this brutal Texas hell !!!

[@KickinItWithQ]

Man absolutely it’s a must to keep out the heat. I appreciate you watching bro

[@chinito20fam]

​@@KickinItWithQpeople talk about ceramic.. and TRUST ME!! ITS WORTH EVERY DOLLAR .. HAVE A TRUCK IN LEATHER EVEN THE DASH. AND WELL... FIRST 2 YRS I DIDNT SEEM TO NOTICE TILL I SEEN THE DRIVER SIDE UP FRONT HAVE A BIG BUBBLE. FRON THE HEAT... OMCE I WENT IN AND ADDED CERAMIC TINT.. no more bubbles ever appeared.. saved me tons of money from the leather to refix. In a old truck a 2003 dodge ram got cooked... Plastic all shattered and in pieces... If I knew about ceramic and the benefits trust me I would of tmout the best tint for hest reduction and to save your cars interior.. so don't ever debate on "wasting money" trust me it's worth every penny..

[@Dracoballin]

How did you get the inspection sticker with 5% tint

[@KickinItWithQ]

Pays to know a guy lol

[@Brian-StarGazer-77]

Do you have a video of all the upgrades to the truck?

[@KickinItWithQ]

Yup did one 3 weeks ago. The Total Build Cost and Breakdown of My Lifted F150 kzbin.info/www/bejne/sICQmHSJZ7KMl8U

[@Fx2-sport]

i really like the red on black them and i was wondering what type of wheels are those?

[@KickinItWithQ]

TIS 547B

[@robcarr8505]

I have to get that. Sometimes I get in my truck and burn my hand on the steering wheel. It's hard to believe the steering wheel can get that hot.

[@KickinItWithQ]

Ikr!!

[@xtreme4stringbass]

We took all the 5% tint off the boy's car as a Christmas present. It sucked for vision. Still had the UV shade.

[@KickinItWithQ]

It’s definitely a little dark especially at night time

[@rizescrappy8729]

How is it at night with 35 on the windshield and 5 all around? I have 50 on the windshield and 15 all around right now

[@KickinItWithQ]

It definitely can get dark. Have to roll down windows at times. Definitely need good headlights to

[@Braydine]

You get pulled over much for the tint? I have the same issue with tint I replaced

[@KickinItWithQ]

Haven’t been bothered yet

[@christopherkassner2540]

Getting a new f150 in 2 weeks. Ive been driving in my current vehicle with 15% front windows and 5% rear with 0 issues. The truck im gonna do the dame but also wanna do the windshield. Im really torn between 35% and 50%. Knowing me ill likely wish i went darker after i have it for a bit. Any words of wisdom? Also, ive had front/rear 5% windows in older cars and as much as i loved it i hated having to put my windows down to make certain turns on dark roads haha.

[@KickinItWithQ]

35% the way but it definitely dark at night! 50% the safe way

[@SouthsideHoncho850]

How is your view @ night from the front windshield?

[@KickinItWithQ]

Definitely need some good headlights lol it can get pretty dark especially on dark roads

[@SouthsideHoncho850]

@ ok thanks I got 5% on the sides & back so I might go a little lighter on the windshield but love the look with the 35%.

[@KickinItWithQ]

@@SouthsideHoncho850 50-55% is perfect imo

[@My-Comments-are-Invisible]

always remember if you wave at someone and they just stare at you - it is because they cannot see you waving - so you have to lower the window to wave.

[@mackharris6536]

Can you still see at night with the 5% cause I’m planning on getting 5% and I sometimes drive at night

[@KickinItWithQ]

It’s definitely harder to see the curbs bro. I’m going to be honest.

[@mackharris6536]

@@KickinItWithQok

[@victorwright8725]

Bro!!! Looks good but try mine out double 5 got it done last week and its night time all the time 😅

[@darellhunter2205]

Q!! I know you peeped that white GMC 2500HD Denali. That would fit you just right bro! 😁

[@KickinItWithQ]

Yeaa I did see that thing! It’s definitely nice

[@Marcos-S316]

How is the drive at night? Can you see better?

[@KickinItWithQ]

I don’t know why I forgot to fill my nighttime portion. I like to do another video, but to answer your question is definitely harder to see curbs.

[@djjackson24]

January of 2025 is when the Texas vehicle inspections go away. So excited for that lol. Unless you are in the big 17 counties so basically the rural people don't have to worry about it, which is dumb

[@KickinItWithQ]

That’s dumb thought it was everybody

[@gzimmer0]

That's only for emissions. No more safety inspection (tint) statewide. At least that's how I read it

[@tpoole177]

Great content

[@KickinItWithQ]

I appreciate it man! Thanks for watching

[@mackharris6536]

I’m going there in the summer to get my truck tinted

[@KickinItWithQ]

Yess sirr!

[@exthorn5539]

You get used to it quickly. 5% doesn’t feel dark to me anymore.

[@KickinItWithQ]

Not going to lie at night time those curbs become invisible 😂

[@chinito20fam]

​@@KickinItWithQ I have had this crazy set up... Only if you want the look and drive during the daytime... 5% rear and back. 20 windshield. 20 up front. And go over it 35% over every window again. Not including the windshield... ... If you want a safer route. 5 back and rear. 20 up front. 35 windshield. And go over it in 35 back rear and front.. not the windshield... Which is what I have and it's perfect.. don't overthink it about going dark the way you like... I've seen comments say 5% the entire thing with 20% windshield and go over it with 5% again.. and to me that's just dumb.. that's to dark.. nice as well in the daytime can look out and not worry about people looking in or looking at you staring... But I wouldn't ever recommend going 20 at all even in ceramic. It doesn't appear dark if you add it to the windshield and look out during the day.. but at night it's a nightmare. I have glasses to see.. and I have to legit look up close in the windshield.😂

[@KickinItWithQ]

@chinito20fam yeah that second option seems more suitable for me as well lol

[@CamsLife12]

I may have to pay them a visit for the mustang

[@KickinItWithQ]

Definitely bro
