Pre-cut window tint

I am just looking for thoughts on this concept. I ahve drank way too much wine at this point and typing is becoming difficult....
So.....I would think the sides would be easy to put on and the back window would be impossible.
I am thinking i will buy the precut....do the sides and have the back window professionally done?
Thoughts?
Another drunk thought....would window tint installers consider installing my pre-bought pre-cut window tint for a lesser charge?

GOOD IDEA.... I know. Thanks.

I've heard that most of the precut stuff is absolute crap.
My opinion, pay someone to do it right the first time, with a warranty.

It comes with a warranty? How long?

my guy in White Bear Lake does the entire car for about 200 bucks and it has a life time warranty. I have had 4 cars tinted through him and i have never had to claim a warranty. His stuff is awesome

Yeah, most places I've heard of offer a lifetime warranty on the tint.

Can you link me to your guy in White Bear Lake? Right now, I am looking at spending about $300 for the whole car, which is why I am considering other options. Could your guy get me in for a tint job this Monday? I have no idea how far White Bear Lake is from me, but for the price, i would make the drive.

Talk to my friend Money. He use to own StreetScenes Tint in Spring Lake Park and does an awesome job. I had three vehicles done by him last year alone. I think his pricing was under $200, with a warranty. I can get you his number if you would like, and he usually will come to your place to do it.

Thank you for all the replies and references. I will try all of them, but right now my wife is nagging me, so I have to go.
Thanks again. I hate nagging.

I got my windows done at Street Scene's last fall, and love it. They did a great job...

GO WITH DARK DAN. if i had money i wouldn't hesitate on who to call. i go to dan for oil. he does tint, decals, and oil. jen's tint looks great and so have the other cars he's done. he has anopther film (that's a bit more. but worth it) that would look good on your car and cut down on heat.

Street Scenes did mine, the one by Northtown and they did fantastic work. Under $200.00 for five windows.
I've heard plenty of good things about DarkDan as well, can't go wrong either way.
