Window Tinting

[Jeff]

Talked to A&K yesterday....$300 to tint my freaking windows. I think I will take my chances and try to do it myself...anyone wanna help? They told me they would do it 50% on the two front sides and 35% on the 4 rear sides and the rear window. I'm thinking about letting them do the rear window only and doing the 4 side rears and the two fronts myself.

Anyone think I might just be better off buying the side windows at a junkyard? I forgot to ask the guy at hillside last time I was there...but they had a van with OEM tinted rears. All I would have to do then would be get the rear and side fronts done. I could actually swap decklids and then I would have a OEM tinted rear with a heating element...that would be nice.

$100.00 bucks and you come get the glass and the hatch.

ohio isnt far

6 hours.

[Jeff]

If I were to work out the gas to go that far...and a little something for my time... I might as well pay Tony to tint them. The local search will go on!

[Jeff]

LOL! I got a PM from another guy with glass for me...he too...in Ohio.

You don't have $300? Just wait till you graduate then.

You werent factoring in that OEM tint will look 100x better than any guy putting it on aftermarket

even if that tint is 20 years old?

[HAULN-SS]

Probably.

[Feersty]

Probably.

Some tint shops are pretty good though.

Most tint shops provide a lifetime warranty or so I hear. But the OEM tint is built into the glass, it is IN the glass like the safety film. The van I saw at the yard looked like new to me!
