I have thought about going with this same company and either doing it myself or taking the film I bought to a pro. Either way, I don't think I would try the back window myself.

Cutting the pattern is the easiest part of the tint process. Granted, the side windows are relatively easy to install if you have basic experience, but back windows aren't all that easy. They require shrinking with a heat gun and if you don't have the experience, you can easily crease the film during this process. I tinted for years and I still screwed up a back window every now and then. It took me a couple years of experience to get good enough to do a good job, so I wouldn't recommend it if you've never tried it before.

I wouldnt buy that film and take it to a pro to have it installed. Everybody gets used to a certain style of film and know how to make it work for them. If you take them a different kind of film than what they are used to, you may not get the best results.

Also if you go in to their shop and start asking specific questions, like how do you prevent dust from getting inbetween the film during install, and do you have a lifetime guarantee with your film, you will probably get a better job. Generally, the more anal you seem, the more care will be taken in your install.
