$200-$250 for all windows. Cash if you want them that dark. If you know a guy, you may find a better deal but that's about average

You also might want to check local laws in your area. It would be a shame to pay good money only to get tickets.

Definitely do some shopping around. I just had both vehicles done through local law enforcement. The cost of both vehicles was under 200, total. On the car, the tint is just dark enough to help shade the interior. The jeep, on the other hand, you cannot see inside.

here in NY the front windows need to be clear along with the windshield. the backs can be black. but personally i had 5% on my car and i hated it at night and when it rained. just couldnt see. I also dont really like the factory tint on my back windows when wheeling at night.

Just me, but I would definitely would reconsider going that dark. I had pretty dark tint on my old 96XJ and it was almost impossible to see out at night. Made backing up in parking lots a bit dangerous. I actually added 55w fogs to my rear bumper because of it on that one. My new 99 has clear windows all around and I kinda miss the tint when I have stuff in the back I don't want stolen and when cars with bright lights come up behind me so I was considering a lighter tint for the rear half. X3 on check local laws - some places the LE officers are real uptight about that! Again, just my .02
