Just got tints on my 2017 Sports Hatch (4doors + rear). Tint job is great, but there was some damage i didnt really notice till i got home after work. Seems they damaged the window trim by what appears to be the trim getting taken off and bends showing where they removed it. There is also a sort of film on the inside of the car doors right below the windows. I’ll do more inspecting tomorrow, but based off this what would you recommend doing?

It’s a husband/wife business. Come from a small town and they’re the only ones besides dealers thT do it

@250GTCalifornia yeah i’m gonna stop down today and see what they’ll do. The trim def has to be replaced, but would rather they just reimburse me and i have the dealer fix it.

I had a paint repair job done and they had to open the window trim off to make sure the paint didnt get on it. I also noticed bends which is understandable on parts that need to be pryed off...Was it this? My question to add on is will water/weather getting in here be a problem?

Those seals keep out a lot of water, but there are drains on the bottom of the door for any that does get into them. That’s why I said to ‘ask’. Try to work with people to fix things, rather than be confrontational.

Those pieces don't need to be touched when doing a tint job.
