Take it to some one that know's what they are doing. I have tryed tinting windows and I am not going to try again, spend the $200 and get it done by a pro.

I wouldn't bother DIY.

Too much work.. and even if you think you have it right.. it may bubble a lil later.. unless you have test windows you can learn from.. I wouldn't suggest DIY

most places will also give you some kind of warenty as well so if anything does happen to it you can take it back and they will fix it for free, i took advantage of that with mine, definately worth the extra 200 bucks when i bought my car

ya, you cant go wrong with spending a little more and getting a pro to do it. They usually give some kind of gaurantee or warranty also.

If your looking for window tint, check out Audio Heaven. I got my windows tinted theer for just under 200 and it turned out awesome. No bubbles, comes with warranty and it was done in a couple hours. Dont waste the time doing it yourself and doign it wrong. Go pro.

yeah don't try if you're a prof. You will mess it up and than it will cost you more to have it re-tint

spend the money getting it done professionally unless you like the great smell of removing old bubbly tints with a heatgun
