It's fine to tint in cold weather, its just going to take longer to cure.

Most of the time tints are done inside a shop so the weather shouldn't be a factor...

youll be fine, i worked in a shop for 4 years, and we tinted year round. In fact both of my cars were tinted in the colder months. Youll be fine, not to mention any reputable shop will come with a warantee

bubbles can happen anytime, go to a good shop and it will be less likely to happen...youll get a warranty so dont worry about it.

i got them done today thinking it was going to be nice out but 2night is freezing.. the glass must be ice.. is it going to stick ok? tomorrow should warm up a lil up 2 40 degrees lol but i noticed little bubbles on the top of the windows but i think it has to dry and they will go away right? i guess ill juss give it time i knew i should of waited till it got warmer i just wanted them on so bad.. i feel like things stick better to hotter things.. thats y they use a heat gun when they install it... Let me know what you think here are some pics of it.. 35s front windows and 20 on the rear windshield.. i went with 35 cuz my interior is black so i came out pretty good...
