I just had mine done last night. 35% all around, which is not legal in MN...I'll roll the dice on that one. Anyways, there were two guys working on my car and it took them about 3.5 hours and these guys do it for a living. They had to remove all the door panels to do it right they said. $175 out the door.

A question I have for others, after you have the tint, I noticed that when looking in the rear view mirror, the rear defrost "lines" now reflect quite a bit. So if you're looking back, it looks like 6 pairs headlights instead of one because of the reflections off those lines. The Tint guys said that was normal, but what do you guys think?

same thing with mine..i guess it is normal..well not really like six times but you can definitely see the lines way more now

Finch, Sorry it took so long, and please forgive the quality of the pic (all I have is my phone right now), but here is a shot with the different shades on the sides against the rear windows....

Don't worry about it, I put off the tint for a while since I just dropped $540 on a Fidanza clutch and flywheel. 50 is the legal limit here in MN, but that 35 just looks so sexy! That's probably what I'll do, 35/35/35. What brand of film did you get?

I honestly don't have a clue....but it looks killer :D And the shop did a helluva job. I am very pleased with my $149 investment.
