Out here in Cali, I paid $40. I'm sure it will be cheaper where you are. Everything is more expensive out here.

Tint is always a reasonably price upgrade; just make sure you find out what the tint laws are in your state. You don’t need to be harassed bye the law! Ouch, I see you’re from PA. Your tint laws appear to really suck, you are at a 70% for front windows; I doubt you will be able to match your rear tint without the law man riding your case...

In Michigan you cannot tint the front three windows. I did it in a car I had in the mid 90's. The tint cost me $85 and the ticket cost me $125. I also had to pay $40 to get it removed.

Make sure that you follow your states requirements for tint. It is an easy ticket for the police and they will get you.

BTW, I will do the tint for you for $300, if you want to pay it!:yup Can't gurantee the quality though.

Yep, you are only allowed 4" on any of the front windows... You can get away with it as long as you keep the tint light; or can prove that you have a medical condition that forces you to need tinted windows... The most many dare to go without this is 35%.
