I've done it twice now.

I haven't had any experience with Tint before, but have done Pinstriping and Decals... which I guess Are Kinda Close...

Have you seen the people who drive around and thier tint looks like swiss cheese ???? That looks like Ass. My orginal plan was ... I can't afford to get tinted... It's $200-$250 in my area... And I NEED at least an Eyebrow... to block out the sun...
So I spent $12 on a roll of %20 and decided to give it a shot..
If it looked like Ass.. I was going rip it off!
My first try SUCKED mad buttocks... so I ripped it off and cooled my nerves down... cuase it's friggin frustrating..
I had one more shot with the tint left ! so I pulled into the shade and tried to get away from any wind and something just clicked.
It became REALLY easy. I did the Eyebrow and it looked so Tight... So I measured up and I just Squeked the two rear side windows with the left over %20 . These were the easiest!
the next day I went and got a roll of %35 my legal... and did the two side windows...
Over all I was extremely happy
I need to redo
the Eyebrow.... Cuase I followed the directions and didn't cover the black bubbles
and the drivers side window.. I F'ed up the Corner.

If you stand 2 feet away it looks professionally done...
Their is one hair in the back passenger side... that you really don't notice unless I point it out... maybe I'll redo that one.

My wifes turned out better than mine.

Sorry I typed so long... Maybe when I do it again.. I'll take some pictures and type up a good "How To"
