how much you think for just the small triangle windows and the back window?? i don't want to tint the side ones, but was thinking about the little ones and back one.

LS3SSRS · 06-25-2009, 03:04 AM

i was thinking about just getting them to do the back and the sides and i'll do the tiny windows. i've tinted windows in lots of vehicles, with lots of stress, so i'd rather leave the back and the sides up to the pros cause the back window would be a bitch. what i've done is ordered the tint on ebay pre-cut for $35 and put it on. cutting is the hardest part about tinting. but side triangle windows would be easy. Oh and to answer your question lol, i was going to just get the back 3 and the guy said $159. $225 for all 5.

keep us posted on how good a job they do!

bluch · 06-25-2009, 01:20 PM

ya. let us know how it goes with them. if they do a good job i will probably use them to get the back and triangle windows tinted. $159 sounds pretty good.

LS3SSRS · 06-25-2009, 06:46 PM

pfft i got bumped to next wednesday. apparently the installer had a course move a week ahead to this sat. instead of next. so i'll be sure to take pics and inspect his work thoroughly next week!

I know someone who used Pro-tint to do a window on their house - said they did an awesome job, used top quality materials...ie; unlikely to go purple anytime soon

BUMBLEBEE_SS · 07-01-2009, 01:29 AM

you can cave some tint on it regular police dont really care...
but if a traffic officer pulls you over... they care.

Any other cop says " just say i forgot to check, or It looks good
and my car has it too, just dont get caught"

light tint is fine.... when you start getting dark they start to care

bluch · 07-01-2009, 01:35 AM

ya. i was thinking of tinting the back and small triangle windows dark, and then the side windows much lighter...just don't want ppl to see right inside

Best tint so far I've seen and should keep you somewhat legal is no tint on windshield except a brow up to 6" tall if you want, 35% ceramic on the sides, 10% on the two triangle windows and 10% on the rear window. The car will look fantastic.

you cant tint the rear glass if you only have one side view mirror as well.

hot ss · 07-07-2009, 11:50 PM

have you tried clear choice in west edmonton, for tinting?

Levis · 08-22-2009, 04:47 AM

Ive heard they were pretty good (clear choice). I live in the west end so i may check it out this week. The 10% back and 35% side worked well on my charger. Had it like that for over 2 years and was pulled over 2 times for speeding and i just rolled down my windows and they didnt say anything.

I have been tagged on the highway with the RCMP for tinted windows,

however it seems in Calgary, in the last year or two, they have backed off quite a bit on the tinting fines, so I have been told.
