    I just went to the guy who tinted my other cars, paid him $100 and took my dog for a walk. Came back 30 minutes later and it was all done. I like DIY projects, but leave something like this to people who do it for a living. Chances are, materials and my time would've been worth far more than $100 and would look better if done by a professional.

    but here is a decent video

    Tint is something someone should teach you or it will be a hard lesson learned. There are a lot of little tricks to tinting windows.

    I used to tint Windows professional. There is an art to it, lots of tricks. Side widows are pretty easy if they're flat are don't need to be stretched. Working clean is the must important thing. Good cuts and rounding your corners. You need good tinting tools as well. 100.00 bucks is pretty high for two front Windows, should be closer to 50.00
