wrong lol. while it may have happened to you in the past, it is not often the case. I had a 1998 s-10 tinted when I was in high school. Cost me $30 per window, not one issue at all. Before I had the G (about two years ago) I got my trailblazer SS tinted 5% all around. The guy charged me $100. Not a spot of purple, not a issue with bubbling. Just depends on who you go with, and how you maintain it. If you clean tint with ammonia based cleaning products, it will turn purple. You need to use the stuff without it.

just my 2 cents.

you guys are wrong , 60 bucks is the fully dye tint!

I paid 120 for a metalic-dyed hybrid tint and my radio works fine. Plus it has a lifetime warranty so w/e if it starts to fade 5+ years down the road its no biggie
