anyone know how much it costs to get a professional to tint my wondows

~~ $150

depends, I believe most places around my area charge $200-250 and a little extra if it's a 4 door.

It'll be around 150-200 depending on where you go. A good way to ensure a professional install and not a hack install is to see some of the work that person or company has done. If you want the install to look good, price should not be an option.

Be sure to check what is legal for you state. I had my side windows tinted, and I got 5 tickets in about 6 months before I finally took them off. $36.50 a hit and now I have 10 points on my insurance because of it...not exactly a smart move by me.

Some states allow tinting on all windows...minus windshield of course, while others, like Iowa, just allow the back ones to be tinted. There is a website somewhere that tells what each state allows.

it's the newbies that lack reading and comprehension skills. The rest of us appreciate all the info you post very much so.
