I got mine done for $110, that was for 35% on sides and 5% on the back. The guy wanted to charge me $15 more for 5% all around, thought it was a pretty good deal.

Normally, it's around $125-150.

A good shop will do the back window in one piece.

Im curious as to where people get them done here in MN and what they pay...cuz I found one local place but they wanted $250-$300 to do a 2 door car...Down in the southern states where you guys are at there are shops everywhere and it seems cheaper, all I know is I would never pay $300, that is rediculous.

Also I read something about people having problems with their tint getting scratched when the windows are going up and down??? maybe that is just a rumor someone correct me if I'm wrong.

I have my back window done in one piece and the defroster is fine, and has been for the 5 years the tint has been on the car.
I cost me $125 for the 2 front windows and the rear window in piece.

Mine's been done for about 6 years, and I've never had any problems.
