are the windows tinted at all from factory?
are the windows tinted at all from factory?
my car just arrived at premier to get the car clear bra and wanted to see if the car rear windows come tinted/darker shaded than the fronts? i noticed from some of the pics posted here that the rears look darker so if they are i will most likely have premier tint the fronts to match the rears. my car did not come with the thermal option.
This factory tint has a greenish look compared to the 2008-2010 which has more blue-ish factory tint.
Had to go with a different brand with my new CTT compared to my old 2008 GTS.
Just a FYI
EDIT: all models 2008+ cayenne have the same windows, the blue-ish vs green-ish, is due to the insulated panels if you get that option.
The windows that are insulated, double panel, with insulation insert are the side windows front/back. The rear window isn't insulated from what I can gather, but the windshield is. the front window looks a bit greenish/purpleish when outside at certain angles if you get the insulated, and the side insulated windows look a bit greenish.
this makes for a difference in blue vs green appearance, and when tint is applied over this amplifies any variance.

give me a day to get this information for you, but my tint guy, the one who has done over 15 of my vehicles, bought 10 samples of various tints to find the one that EXACTLY MATCHES, and I will call him tomorrow and get the brand.
Let me know again if you have insulated glass or not, bc that does matter, but you can get it to match EXACTLY if you use the right tint.
And believe you me, I am VERY picky, and mine matches perfecly.
Here is a link to my post on the matched tint.

So I got ahold of my tint guy, and he stated that my 2008 GTS without thermal he installed Suntek Carbon, and the new 2011 CTT with thermal he installed ASWF the Excel line.
Both Cayennes matched perfectly.
Hope this helps.
