too bad Charles doesn't work their anymore John
But this shop did my Avalon 5% all around, my Trans Am 5% all around.. I've since sold my avalon but the windows were still black as night.
And my trans am, I had a little bubbling issued on the very front corner of the windows, the did them for free no questions asked.. They also tinted my T-tops 5% too.
I will have them tint the windows on my Jeep.. Prolly like 18%.. That is pretty much what factory is

my buddy lives right by midco and he did good work on all of his cars, however i just called him a few weeks ago and he WILL NOT do anything over the legal limit. i was kinda pissed cause i wanted 5% all the way around (minus windshield) and he wouldnt do it. i found someone on craigslist that uses 3m tint with lifetime warranty, $120 for all the windows at 5%.
just my 2cents
also ztech in naperville is good, they have done a few of my cars, however its a little expensive. side windows arnt bad i think they are $75 no matter what vehicle and percent. the hatch tho i think was somewhere around $200

Charles did my regal and did a flawless job. He also did it for dirt cheap.
I know a lot of people who have gotten theirs done at Perfect Auto Finish. I think they charge about $220

Yea depending on the car but for your camaro there I would say limo for the hatch, 35% or 20% for the front. 20% is pushing it for risk of being pulled over because it can look really dark depending on your interior color.
I recommend Umbra Window Tinting in Schaumburg off of Wise Rd.

If you're going to get anything darker than 35%(the legal limit) then get it as dark as you want.
20% is dark enough to get you pulled over, so in my opinion if you're going to break the law, at least look as good as you want doing it.
I've got 5% rear/sides, paid $100 for those, and $30 to tint the tops 5%.
Don't pay more than $150 for tints.
