i have 1 peice, 2 tints, one 35 and one 20. the back window is difficult but why did they do it with 2 peices?

well, my 5% wasn't as tall as a back winshield. it looks damn good tho. Jason, how the hell did you get your key ring (on the starter) red? did you get your guage needles from importintelligence.com? your dash and gauge cluster is phat as hell man.

I did it on my own. All the windows are fine, except for the back window. It starting to peel-off. It's kind of difficult anyways. I will get the back done by a pro.
