Will it get better on its own or should I have it redone by tinter? It's 1 inch long by 1/3 inch wide.

when did you get it? it you just got it leave it be for 2 days and it should shrink, after that if its still there then get redone since it will just increase later on if it doesnt shrink.

How long ago did you get it done? Based on past experience, some air bubbles will show right after it's done. Maybe give it a couple weeks.

I got it done Thursday, it's Saturday now. I'll see the tinter tomorrow and voice these concerns. Anyone else get their 2016 civics tinted? I'd love to see some pics!

Yea i would just take it back then and have him clean it up chances are he will just squeegee it flat or put a new one. better off him squeegee it as if you do it and it still has a wrinkle you dont like and you bring it back he may blame you for why its the way it is. better play it safe then sorry.

Like @Zange said give it a day or two which I've seen tiny bubbles fade, but that a pretty large bubble imo I'd make them redo it :dunno:

Same issue here. Just put it in the sun and let it dry. On another car, I had a bubble right in the middle and could have taken it back but I took a sewing needle and made an ever so slight, invisible puncture and the bubble disappeared on its own.
