Where can I find tint for rear glass?
I want to tint my windows, but all I have found so far was too small and I don't want a seam in it. Any urls you guys know of?

Almost every professional place does it in a least 2 sheets, some use 3. Never seen anyplace do it all in one piece.
I just had mine re-done. When I got my car it had 3 pieces and was the cheap junk that turned purple. I had it removed and replaced with one piece.
The guy explained that the cheap tint uses dye that degrades from sunlight. The good stuff (which actually has a lifetime warantee) uses a metal coating. It is also on a higher quality plastic that can be heated up to make the corner.
My window looks AWESOME. Pay to have the expert do it right. It cost me $100.

I used to work at a detail shop, and we had the best tinter in the world. He gave me a great deal, of limo (5%) titanium (that metal coating, that doesn't fade). He did it in one piece, and he charged me $40.
