If your going to tint your windows, I highly recommend you take it to a professional.

+1. I had my Civic tinted. You could tell which cars on the road were professionally done and those that had been tinted at home. I never saw a bubble or had the tint discolour. I constantly saw people with bubbles in their window tint and, even worse, was the tint that was a bright shade of purple.

Get it professionally done, it wasn't too expensive on my Civic. $250CAD for 5% (limo) tint on the rear three and 35% (medium) tint on the side two windows.

My tint film is LLumar but I had it professionally done. Lifetime warranty on the tint to never discolor.
