[QUOTE="r1dermon, post: 1206793, member: 563650"] a flat piece of tint cannot lay flat on two curved axis's. most rear windows in cars are rounded, meaning they curve from top to bottom AND from side to side, like this, you'll end up with many creases on the tint if you try to do it with one sheet. this results in the bubbling and crappy looking job which really stands out for how bad it is. in order to make it go on flat, you have to cut the tint into strips, like 4 or 5, and overlap them at the defroster wires. just to let you know, window tint goes on the inside of the window too...in-case you werent sure. walk down an inner city street and look at crappy tint jobs, and then see how many of the crappy ones were done on the outside of the window.
