JUST TINTED MY RIDE...CHECK OUT MMY PICS! Options

I TINTED THE TAILS MYSELF AND HAD MY BOY DO ALL THE WINDOWS...I'm picking up my new rims n tires tonight..will post pics once i get them on...

[lagos]

the side windows and the winsheild are done 35%...and the rear and the rear sides are 5%...n my boy been doing this for a living for 12 years...and i paid 120.00 for it all...As for tinting it yourself...it actually is all about doing the prep work on it. it looks actually easy..the key is 2 spray water on the outside of your window, place the sheet there and cut it out on the outside of the window...have someone inside with a light so you can see the outer edge and you just trace it out with a exaco knife...and for the rear window and windsheild you gotta use a heat gun to shrink it to the window because it has its curve in it... ,then spay the inside of your windsheild or window so its real wet with water so it sides in2 place. remove the back lining of the tint and stick it to the window...adjust it to its position and then squeegy outward from the center and tuck it in at the edges.you can use the heat gun to stretch it if your off alittle with your cut...i will be doing my lexus as practice.....save 120.00....and that WAS discounted!!! good luck doing it and thanks for the post!

good tips. i tried tinting parts of my car before, and what you said is basically the way its done. it just comes down to experience.

only thing im going to give you crap for is tinting your front windshield. not only is it very illegal, its also very dangerous because you cant see as well. expect to get pulled over for that a lot.
