      $225=major rip off
      should be more like $125
      I had a pro come to my house and do a mustang hatchback (5 windows + sunroof) for $130, which included stripping off old tint

          Fiance's bro just got his truck windows tinted. 2 side windows, 2 little triangle windows, 2 back extended cab windows, and front window visor for $100. If he got the back window of his cab done he would of been $145.

                it depends... how much the windows is, what kind of windows, curves and all that good stuff...

                also on newer cars, around the borders of the windows, there are little dot matrix imprints... to make tint not pocketed up there is very difficult because of the uneven surface caused by the little dots...

                cheap tint will fade to a purpleish after a while, so you gotta be careful... which may lead to further problems in the future, especially in the back window where the defroster lines are, those lines are very delicate, ripping tint off may rip the defroster lines along with them.

                so... remember spend a little more and save yourself a headache in the future.

                    If I were you, I would get that cheap stuff from Wal-mart and put it on there.

                            tinting prices around here are in the 150 range. mine would cost 160( 4 door Accord + back window)
                            The very existence of flamethrowers proves that sometime, somewhere, someone said to themselves. 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

                              my car (02 protege) cost me 160 and that was with a special "valued customer" 50% off coupon. cars, espically newer ones, can be expensive.
