Murd0c suggested a small place on HWY 10 called Craig's Car Care. I haven't called yet to determine a price but I saw the job on his car and it is top quality.
I am hoping to look into it by next weekend, I'll let you know. If you find anything under $150 let me know too!!!!

the thread on rs has been deleted...but from what it sounds like its 105 bucks for 3 windows (cash only = including tax)...but that was before...whoever is close to that place or would like to ask, i will be grateful...just let them know that there are a lot of cars ( = alot of business for them) will be on this
so how many want a gb for windows tint?I wanna ask around so I wanna know around how many are willing to do it for sure. BTW, I will ask around in Richmond first, because it's where I live, but if someone suggests me a place I might check it out if I am around there.

Chico83,
Start gathering some prices and lets see what the best deal is that we can get. We'll keep the list open, but I think 5 is a good start to get a discount.

Steve,
Just use a small razor blade and some patience and it will come off easy. You can use some sort of thinner to take off the residue on the windows, or even a touch of gasoline on a rag will work.
No need to pay somebody to do it.

Jay,
Good to hear from you buddy, it has been a while. How's the new wheels treating you these days?
So is it good tint, it won't have a purple hew to it? If so count me in and let me know when and where to show up.
Your the best man, you always seem to come through!
Cheers
Randy
