How much does it cost to tint windows ?

I have a 1999 Volkswagen Jetta 4 Door. I was planning on getting all the windows tinted pretty dark so it is hard to see inside the car... About how much do you guys think this will run me ?

depends on the shop and quality of tint that you want

What about pre-cut tint, like that of snaptint.com?

Ok, let me re phrase that question... does anyone have any experience with pre-cut tint? And if so, how did you like it ?

just do it right

good shops will offer warantees against bubbling, peeling, and purpling

i was considering tint, and was told to stay away from DIY. it will just be a headache and not look as good in the end (even with precut pieces).

all my locals shops quoted me $200+ for a 4 door sedan (lifetime warranty, etc).

its not really that hard to do it yourself. you just need a heatgun, razor blade, and the spray concentration. with a lot of patience, you can get it done in an afternoon.

the heatgun makes everything go by MUCH faster. me and my friends did our cars in about a day or so. just dont buy that cheap purple tint //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/sick.gif.b1847c8dabbfeeddbcf1a78052249e10.gif. invest in the good stuff, which is like $20 a roll.

Mine was 185$ with a company discount. Normally 200$ for 4 windows and the rear on the Subaru 2.5RS.
