    So the wife's v is currently in surgury at the tint shop! The tint guy highly suggested 20% due to the bisque interior and the larger windows. The wife and I agreed so that's what's gonna happen. They will also put on a sunstrip on the top of the windshield at 5% and that will be flush with the dots under the rear view mirror.


    And...

    If they get done a little early they said they might have time to get my Personas taillights tinted!!! I hope..(y):cool:

    She's all done! 20% all around and the sunstrip on the windshield. I think it turned out great! It looks darker than it really is in The pics because it's very overcast and lightly raining now.

    The shop now has my Persona and is redoing the passenger side front window tint as somehow a hair got under the tint I guess when it was getting installed a while back, and they are going to tint my tail lights! :)

    $200 for the tint.
    $75 for the taillight tint on my ride.

    I have had a dozen cars tinted at this shop so they really hook me up. Lifetime warranty for any issues...

    How much have others here paid for taillight tint done at a shop? I though $75 was great as I was originally quoted $100.

    $75 sound right. The tint on tailight is thicker. I had my headlight tinted for $69.95 in CA

    Sorry for the late response I just can't help myself cruising with the new steering wheel.

    I'm the same way. Problem is I'm to cautious and always worried I'm gonna break or ruin something. So something like the steering wheel upgrade is probably something I would have someone install for me.:)

    I did that and got rejected. I bid $200 and it was accepted.
