Remember not to roll your windows down for about 3 days and try to leave the car in the sun to let the tint "bake". Otherwise it will likely peel when you roll it down...

Lookin pretty good, what % is it? The retard that had my car last only tinted the drivers side... you'd think if they r only gonna do one fricken' window they wouldn't do it half assed... My mom keeps saying I need tint, and I keep telling her to buy it then
I think I may be wearing her down.... hehehe

GOOD LUCK, with the back window. It is one huge PITA, do yourself a favor, get it done professionally. I got mine done for $75.00, the guy did a great job and if I have any trouble you can take it back and have it redone.
Oh man I got mine done during a heat wave and couldn't roll the windows down. I dont think i've ever sweat so much. At one point i took the driver side t-top off and while i was driving tried to direct the air into the car with my hand.
Tried the A/C but you know how those first couple minutes are.

Good tip, I would have rolled them down and found out the hard way.

The pro shop I had mine done at did the back in limo (5%) black in about 20 minutes. Well worth it for $75.00. Other wise a PITA. Tint is the only way to go.
hey 86niterider how is the night-time visibility with 5% ? anyone else with 5% tell me how it is too, plz - i drive with the center mirror mostly

My friend's civic has 15%, it's not easy at night, but it's not that bad. As long as other people have their lights on you can pick them out pretty well. It rocks in the day though. I can't imagine what 5% would be like.... I'm gonna go with 15% on the sides and rear, just hope the local law doesn't give me **** about it

5% which is Limo Black is okay as long as it is not very dark as in no street lights. I only have trouble backing out of my driveway because my street has poor lighting. Going down normal city streets is no problem and daytime is no problem. Also great for security. You cannot see inside at all from the outside.
my bothers last truck (69 chevy half ton with built 350 adn a 3 speed, loud as hell! headers, 12 glass packs, 3 inch pipe back to 4.5 by 24 inch echo tips) had 5% all the way around, it wasnt to bad at night, about the only time it was bad was when it was rainy and cool the windows would fog up unbeilvable bad, i think that was just from all the holes in the firewall tho. lol.
