    any one offering a job that cheap has gotta be starting out their business or getting some cheap labor. those old school film don't do a good job blocking out sun and heat.

    yea , must not be too reputable if they doing it that cheap .. they must be using some cheap metallic kind of tint . and after a while it will look greenish or purple when u look at it and from the inside it will have a mirror like glare that youll be able to see the interioir off the reflections , for $87 .. your gonna get what u pay for .. either it will look like crap after a month or somethings gonna give .. just too cheap todo whole car for under 100 bucks .. But it seems like everyone n their mother installs tints so maybe there just so many places out there that they gotta do it for the low just to get some of the bussiness .. But hey if its not a very expensive car what u gotta lose for 87 bucks

    I ended up doing the tint on my 10 year old DD, and here are the results:






    I got 40% all around, since I just wanted some shade for my son in the summer. I've never tinted any of our vehicles, so I figured we'd give it a test run on our old kid hauler/DD.
