cut out the window to the spot you want it

i usually use the left over window mask that i pull off and stick it to the outside of the window and trace it with a newer sharpie and use a new #11 blade to trim around the edge of the window and the mask and they come out great ....put the masking where ever you want the window down to ...hope this helps "thumbsup"

Do a search for threads by member jwalker....can't remember the thread title, but he did that to my drifter body. It looks really good, hopefully he'll chime in with the title cause it's slipping my mind...


EDIT: NoobCrawler's digi camo drift body
There you go, thread title

You could also mask off the area you want to look open and then tint the remaining window, the clear area looks open.Works fine until you scratch the clear area. "thumbsup"

I used an Xacto knife and a dremel and sanded the edges.
