    IMO you're much, much better off taking your vehicle to a good shop that does tints as their bread & butter business. They have quality material, but more important they know how to do it so that it looks easy, but it's NOT. All it takes is letting the material get too dry, one crease, a bubble that you can't get clear, or worse a tiny piece of crap on the window when you lay the film and it's ruined. It's not that expensive to have it done right.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
