Let a shop do it. In fact go to some around your area & see their work. They can give you prices, & you can see what 15%.,20%, 35% etc look like.

Yeh....what the Crack guy said.

And let a shop do it. I also recommend that you have them tint the glass infront of the middle light on the rear deck. But only if you have a spoiler. I need to have my rear window re-done.

Oh yeh....I have 5% all around. But that may be asking for trouble. I would say 20% if you're not looking to go too dark.

are you gonna be retinting all your windows? I got my back windows tinted at California Tint right across from Rosemead High School on Rosemead Blvd and Mission Blvd. They did pretty well over the dot matrix part, but i had my back retinted and they charged me $70, and i'm thinking of retintin my side windows and they quoted me $170.
