I had my tint done @ Cobblestone Auto Spa in N. Scottsdale for $140. Best tint job I've ever seen. The guy that tinted the back window on my Z28 used to hold seminars for tinting rear hatches on 3rd Gens in Florida. They're good and they do it fast.

I did it myself on the T/A. And I would call it barely passable. It was a pain in the a$$. For $140 dollars I say let them do it.

That back window is not fun!!!!

Not sure where you live exactly but I had my side windows retinted at a place in mesa on southern and mesa I believe. DONT go there. I wasn't really happy with the work, but its hard to tell when you can't roll down the windows for 2 days to see. And he didn't even pull off my old tint, he just slapped new crap right over it, I didn't tell him to pull it off I thought he was just going to do it, otherwise I would have just pulled it off myself. Thats what pissed me off the most.

I would've taken it back immediately and made them fix it. That's just wrong
