I want to get my windows tinted before I put in a sound system in my car and was wondering how much it usually cost to have it done. Thanks.

Most people around my area charge $100 and they'll fix it for however long you have your car for free if it messes up.

For front and back, it is about $200 here.....and on the back window, there is a dot matrix thing on the top that should be blacked out: the tint doesn't adhere to it all too well. so maybe that adds a litte to the price.

110, happy with the job. I have little air pockets around the dot matrix things. I never heard of a process that they black it out completely.

Well I had the front windshield tinted (I think its 50/50 or something like that), 5% on the rest and it cost me $260. The guy that did my 92 GT did a better job and I think the tint that he used was alot higher quality then what this guy used but he still did a good job. Here is a pic.

I didn't see them do it, but it is just a black paint.....it looks like it was probably sprayed on. It seems like it is the same exact stuff as the dot matrix, just makes it solid. It looks really good! here's a few pics:
