Default Price for tinted windows..

Alright so I know I could do it myself, but I have seen soooo many cars with do-it-yourself tinting jobs that look bubbly and horrible and i want a profesional to do it. Anyway my parents are getting some windows in the house tinted and I talked to the guy whose doing it who is real nice and he said as a group deal, he would tint my entire car for 100 bucks. I thought this sounded like a great deal and will prolly give him an answer saturday or sunday. Is this a good price? And if so, what % do you guys suggest, I do want to be able to see fairly well at night............

Default 5%v20%

ok ive been there done that - you dont want 5% unless your stupid... you wont see anything tis very dangerous... i have 20% now - its alot better - still dark looks like maybe 10% should, however 20% will still pass inspection and 5.0 will leave you alone - just do 20% all the way around with like 6-9 strip (STRIP MUST BE 5% or LESS) I payed 120.00 for an excellent tint job.

BTW - 35% looks gay

The higher the number, the lighter the tint is.
When they say 5%, that means 5% of light comes through.
