A few people.

Yes, if installed correctly (one guy had glue issues).

Should be. The car is still new, so it's hard to give a long-term perspective.

I put the mole skin in about a week before I got my tint done. it is really easy to install and I have had no problems. Tint is holding up really well.

You don't need to put the felt on the lower of the two rubber sweeps on the window. If you have good tint the lower rubber sweep wont be a problem because any dust and stuff will be caught in the upper sweep by the felt.

Besides, the lower one is at a higher angle to the window which can cause the felt to pull off when rolling down the window causing glue to get on your tint.

If you have no idea what I'm talking about, go and try doing your felt kit and you'll see what I'm talking about. (Or just take the door panel off and have a look-see.

I hope their aren't going to be any issues with the company mailing it to Canada.
I am quite pissed though, because their is already the scratch marks on the tint, nevermind the scratches the tint company left on the outside of the car (this coming from a reputable tint company out here).

My tint lasted maybe 2-3 weeks before i saw the scratches then it was just done, so i got the mole skin and the tint place i went to is going to just replace my tint on front windows luckly i didnt use the rear ones so there fine.

Pic of the rubber when outside the car it has nothing on it at all.



And the felt added on.



I'll try and get a pic of the scratches them selfs if they will showup on camra
