Is your warranty for 5 years? If yes, then should go back and make a claim on them. Should not change color so soon, probably when it is 5 years old. Even my old Solar Guard lasted 8 years, but at 6th year turn color slightly....

Yah, same as mine, but my old tint was some unheard brand, but lasted quite long for the money I had paid. Definitely not normal for one-year-old tints to fade unless the tint is really low quality.
