Limo on the back window and back passenger and driver's side window and I put 35% on my front passenger and front driver's window for about $160.00 installed. Has a 3 year warranty on it. I'd like to go darker in the front but no one will do it.....B$STARDS!
 
I got 35% all around (with the dark interior, it comes off as darker) and paid $50. An ex of mine knew a guy who owned a shop, so I got hooked up.
 
the color of my car is champagne with tan interior you think it would look good with 35% on the drivers and passenger side and then 5% on the rear?

no at least in my opinion the 2 tone tint job's are ugly. look at my photo gal, i have 5 percent wrapped. if i were you i would either wrap it in 5 percent or wrap it in 35 percent. another opinion of mine is that the 35 percent adds a little class since with 35 you have the luxury to be able to see out, with 5 you are guaranteed trouble at night and possibly with the police.

oh and btw tint was 3m film and i paid $140 for my tint, $100 less than what the local tint shop quoted me.
 
i cant really guage what i paid because i had mine done w/ my remote start pager alarm. but...i paid $400 total for 35 in front and 5 in all back w/ alarm.

i really wish i wouldve gone darker in the front like 20%. in the day time its too easy to see in and im not a big fan of that. i also wish i wouldve got the front windshield strip done to make it a little darker from the back. with good lighting you can see through the back and i didnt want that either. but, im done paying for tint/alarm stuff.

good luck dude. dont pay more that $200.
 
I got 20% all around i paid $90 with lifetime waranty, ithink the reason tints are so cheap down here in miami is because there is a tint shop like evry 3 blocks.

If you mean the REAR glass (the one with the defroster lines..not the rear seat door glass) then that will look fine. But..take it from me...5% is DARK at night...unless you are in a BRIGHT parking lot or the like, it gets to be a REAL pain trying to see out of that pitch back rear glass.

I've had a lot of tints over the years, and personally feel that 20% is the DARKEST at all I'd even consider.

Currently, Im running 35% all around and it's just fine.
 
I did a 20 rear and 35 front twotone on my last sedan, and wasn't very happy with the look... I'm running all 35 now, and it looks good. I wouldn't go darker then 20 on a car, but in PA you not supposed to sport any tint, so running more than 35 puts you at risk of a ticket...


Mine was free, tint guy still owes me a favor... but around here, stereo shops charge out 225-325 for our cars
 
I got 35% on the sides on 20% on the back. I can't imagine much darker than 20% being useable at night! Sure during the day 5% would be good.
oh it was about $170 for metallized film with lifetime warranty
 
I paid 275 for mine. Everywhere in MN was about that price. At least for me. I could've got it less in the southern parrt of the state, but then it would be and extra $60 for gas. Oh, and the tint laws here suck. Max everywhere is 50%. I did that, and 35 in the back window. It's all i needed, although i would've prefered to go darker.
