Have a professional shop do the work. Don't go cheap. It's fairly cheap.

I agree--let a shop do the work. Also, find a shop that will do the work well.

yeah the two common problems with tinting is 1) it gets bubbles and 2) it gets purple and looks like crap. Ask around and get the best shop to use the best tint possible, you won't regret it.

I had mine done for 100 bucks 15 all around! (15 is the tint color... 20 is legal...15 isnt..) Make sure you get LIFETIME Waranty! If I even get a single bubble they will redo my whole job!

do you feel cool just cuz you got 15, and we all know that your tint isnt legasl, acually in the back and the rear windows it is legal, the only place its not legal is the 2 front windows. and the shop probably will only do the window that bubbles not the whole job over. also they probably used sunguard or a sister companym, they must have givin you a fake LIFETIME warranty becuase major companies like that only warranty legal work, why would they garantee an illgeal act so they will get the fine, no.

dude who does my tint gives me a lifetime warranty and i have mine done 5% all the way around. you can still get one you just can't put it in paper. but there can be problems with that, so stay friends with you tint guy.

They damn well better give me some paper. That's why there this little stamp on my reciept , " FOR OFF ROAD/ SHOW USE ONLY ". There's your proof of work and warranty.

Ha, good thing I live in a place where anything is legal (well, at least when it comes to cars). Here's a recent pic of my car with the new tint (have to get a new pic of it, since my ride's been dropped by 1.5"):

Hhmm...looks as dark as mine. Did you also have your front windshield tinted? Mine is tinted dark neutral up front, but I might change that to light charcoal black, since it is still quite hot.

Don't know about there in the U.S. Here we can tint front windshields, and even use dark ones if we like. Here are pics of the Honda Club Philippines meeting last February. My car was not tinted dark then (in fact, it has only light tint, but the tint's faded since it's been 10 years since...). Note how dark the tints of the cars beside me look like:
