Thats pretty dark. Just make sure its good quality, so it doesnt turn purple in a year.

More power to you if you do tint yourself. That is something I wont do myself.

Doing your own tint is 90% prep work, make sure everything is clean and dry.

They get purple when you wash your windows from the inside with anything with Amonea in it, like the BLUE Windex, If you use the Green Windex, which doesnt contain Amonea, it will be fine, or just use soap and water......
