Default Window tint with rear dot matrix?

Has anyone gotten tint on their rear window of their CRX with the dot matrix? Does it look alright? I wanted to get a slight shade of tint not really dark or anything but I'm worried it won't look right with the dot matrix.

Im not sure if thats the technical word for it or not but thats what I call it. If you look at the rear window at the right angle you see a bunch of foggy looking dots.

if you want it done right, go to a pro, other wise it might not look too good with do it yourself tint, I tried to tint my rear windows myself and when you looked at it from dead on, it looked good but at "that angle", well I wasn,t happy with the outcome so off it came.

I'm not sure what you're talking about, but I know on a few cars I've owned they've had black paint dots around the perimeter for shading. Bust out the razor and scrape em off.

I always do my own tint jobs. If you have enough experience and patience, you can do it just as well as any shop.

Lol Dot Matrix, that's what they used to call old skool ribbon printers.

Are you talking about the black paint dots on the edge of windows?
