Not sure if I would trust that it would fit exactly right, but who knows. The quality I would say is probably cheap.

I would trust the side windows completely even with cheap tint there easy, a one piece rear is going to be a bitch, but for $20 bucks what do you have to lose

You're better off to save the money and have a professional tint your windows.

Tint is like anything else, you get what you pay for, so if anyone buys this, don't expect it to be all that great. That just my honest opinion.

ive been tinting for a few years now and i will tell you strait up. if you dont know how to tint, dont try. to do the back glass, you will have to prep the dot matrix and heat shrink the back glass. some people cant get it to stick to the dot matrix and will leave it looking like its about to peel off. i cant tell what series tint it is (dyed, metalized, etc.) so i cant tell you how good the film is.

As much as I like a good challenge, you all are prob right. By the time I get done screwing the back window up and blowin 40 bucks ill prob end up regrettin it. I've always wondered how they tinted the rear window especially without having it bubble up and after hearin you all out, i think ill go pro on this one. Thanks for the input.

just get it done professionally, you pay more but most places have a lifetime warranty incase cops are dicks or whatever the case may be and make you scratch it off or something.

like everyone else said brah, get it done professionally and find a reputable store. i am going to get mine done here shortly and found a really good place that gives you a lifetime guarantee. if it peels or bubbles, they replace. it's like a sore peter, you can't beat it.

Uhhhh, $20!

I've done the back window and the key is to use a high quality film that you can mold with a heat gun. With $20 you can buy the film yourself and do it in about 1 hr.
