Call a tint shop, they should be able to tell you how to do things and how low of tint you can go. Personally I'd rather have a shop install my tint over doing it myself just because most shops give you a guarentee on the installation and the tint for so long..... lot better than if you do it yourself and get a bubble two months later.

Go to a shop for sure. You can try'en do it yourself but most of the DIY stuff turns out purple and looks bad, bubbles can happen also.

id agree just pay for it all... thier stuff is so much beter and if thiers a bubble or wrinkle come up.... then take it back and get it redone.

the side windows where i think only 10-15bucks to have them all removed and cleaned up but the rear window i was charged 80bucks to remove it BUT i didnt want to rip loose the rear defrosters. so i just paid it.....
they did a preaty good job, tho i had to take it back once to get some bubbles and afew wrinkles removed... well actualy had the whole tint redone besides the front two windows and eye brow... the rear side windows, sunroof, and back glass was all redone
needless to say the second time i went back he knew i wasnt dealing with any imperfections so that time he did a good job.LOL
