It can be a pain in the ***. I honestly think its worth the extra money to get it done by a professional.

Ive tinted windows and it sucked real bad. You gotta be perfect and patient. Side windows arent that bad but the rear window, forget about it. [:@] It doesnt cost that much to get done. I think its well worth it to have someone else do it. My car was $220 for all of my windows and a 6" strip on the top of the windshield. Lifetime guarantee too.

I done all my cars before (3 of them) the side windows dough the back window I had a pro do it b/c I learned that it is a pain in the butt to the back window. Make sure you check your laws too b/c I got pull over once b/c they were to dark I had to remove them all, though I only took the side windows the back I left it on. Went to the police and saw no tinting on the side windows and sign it off the paper, went home and tinted the windows again 20% all around hahaha

Make sure if you take it somewhere to get done they use 3-M or Lamar film. They are the best and Lamar has a lifetime garantee.
