i paid like 140. it was the cheapest. i called about 10 tint shops to get the best deal. i suggest that u do that. although i had to go back 3 times. my window seals went down with the window and they had to pull them back up. and they screwed up on one. had to fix it the next day. i would have gladly played a little more to get it done right the first time. cuz of all the gas i used goin back and forth. i went with 35% all around. they are crackin down on tint where i live. wanted to go darker. i think the name of my tint was lumnar. seems ok. make sure u get a warrenty too. the kind at like advanced or autozone or anything is not as good of quality as the shops have. theirs are in big sheets. when u buy the roles and the stores it take to rows to cover the back glass...can look shotty.
"if it looked like crap cause the previous owner did it, and you are asking if you should do it yourself...I think you should get it done professionally" quote from jschmid
i totally agree
good luck

i did my back 2 windows, took me about 4 hrs and it kinda looks like shit, oh well.
do u think 80 bucks is expensive for just the rear window (one w/ the defroster?)

$80 for one window even if it is the rear one is still a lot of money.

I paid $100 for 35% all around.

I paid $100 for 35% all around with no bubbles and tint fully up to the window.
