Good grief!

My '85 Westy has limo dark tinting on all the side and rear windows and
the windows in the front doors have light tinting.  The tinting was
already on it when I got it and I'm really happy with it.  It has none
of the problems that yours exhibits ... not even the "Mottled" look that
some tint jobs have.

I certainly wouldn't be happy with what they've done to yours.
