if your the slightest bit impatient or you don't have a steady hand....I mean...strictly steady...don't attempt it. If you've never done it before you may end up doing it a few times over again. This was my 2nd time doing it and I'm already planning on redoing a section later this week. You need a long afternoon as well. Plan to get very pissed of and break some things in a fit of rage..

actually there's a place in Milwaukee that takes your windows out to do it. It's only $250 for a coupe. My cousins bud with a ITR had it done and it's completly seemless

Did you take out the 3rd brake light to tint the back window or did you just tint around it?

Anytime I see a car without the enttire back wondow tinted, you can tell it wasn't done professionally.

:bs: you know why so many cars have no tint in fron tof the third brake light? because in many states IT'S ILLEGAL. In VA, i will not pass inspection if its there (many places don't care tho) its tinted over it and I think it looks better that way.

think about how the brake light is secured. by two nuts. not hard to remove. even DIY you can cover it with no problem.....

just wanted to correct the incorrect
