I went out to walmart and bought some of that limo dark tint they sell and did it myself, 3 roles for about 50$ and did every window but the windshield.


Went to a local auto shop and was quoted 125$ for the same windows.

Yeah probably around there since you're west coast. But if you want to save money, go the way I did it. Took me about an hour- hour and a half. All you have to do is cut a little bigger then window, spray on water, lay it own, get air bubbles out, let it sit and dry, cut the excess off and walah. It's easy.

hmm..maybe but idk

its cuz i don't think id be patient enough to do it

and i may get it done cheaper since my uncle goes there w/ every car he gets

he gets a new car every 2 months and turns his old car in

and id rather have it done professionally/right

because i know me..id do something wrong

and taking the old tint off would be a PITA for the hatch

i saw my bro try and take his tint off..fuhhhk i dont wanna do that

Purple tint usually comes from cheapo tint, or using amonia based window cleaner on it.

I also had purple tint on my 88. Once I found where they layed it on at I just peeled it right off. It was really easy but than if left a nice sticky film on the windows.

Also, its illegal to tint your front windshield isnt it? I think it is in NJ.

regular Windex and a razor-blade will take the adhesive from the tint right off....

Some states allow the windshield to be tinted, i think south carolina does, but not positive on that...
