Tint or STB
Im not gonna be adding any mods to my car for about another month, or closer to spring, but I have been getting stuff prepared. After my exhaust/headers Im planning to get a STB and I have been talking to a guy that does window tinting so Im finally gonna get my rear window tinted 
Which one do you guys think I should go with first? I am going to eventually get both, though. Oh yeah, what is a reasonable price for the rear window to get tinted? I know when I lived in La Crosse there was nowhere that touched hatches for cheap, and it was like $120, thats why I never got it done, too expensive... but the guy that Im talking to now does it for $90 he told me, which sounds like a better price to me. The STB could be anywhere from $60-$85.

Well, when I lived in La Crosse, it was like 200 for the sides and rear... Then I found a guy who did the sides for 60. Ive been looking for somewhere to do the back for cheap, and this is the cheapest Ive found.

Definitely tint first. I got the ttops, back window and sides tinted for 140 90 doesn't sound that bad for the rear it's hard to do. I asked the guy who did mine about redoing the sides if I changed my mind and wanted to go lighter and he said they would be 30 each.
