My advice is don't do it your self.....this link is a good example from TMF.


I tried once many moons ago and it look....well, a bit cr@p and then peeled later.

If you can find a friend who has done it then give it a go or at least do a good amount of google home work. Getting a pro to do can be expensive.

Good luck...

ebay!!!! £7 a roll! for like 3m which is enough for 3 rears, ive done my windows, very easy except the rear!
got 5% on rear 3 and 35% on the front and made a sun strip
for that cheep comes with a kit and is well worth it yourself..

Standard cost are £100 + for 3 windows!!!!

But you already know the truth - they look rubbish (and horribly immature) on anything except Bentleys and black Discos.

Spend the money wisely instead.

Personally if I was to tint any of my cars I wouldn't do anything but ceramic tint. It will never peel off and is baked directly into the glass. Course that's more expensive. Hence why I don't have any tint on my windows.....

ive tinted my clubvan estate rear door windows, but only to 35%, didnt want it too dark, i think on the right mini, tinted windows can make the car, whereas on some, the tint makes the car look cheap and tacky
