Default window tint question

I have a 97 camaro and want to do the windows it is white and clear windows just looks to clear. I called about 10 places today and found prices from 129.99 to like 240.00 The place that will do it for the cheapest has 3 year warranty on the film lifetime on the installation. Some places were telling me they would do the back window in two pieces because one will not last and others told me one piece. They said they will seam it on the rear defrost lines anybody heard of this. on my silverado I have 5 which is hard to see at night on the country roads. I am thinking 30 but would like to see a couple pictures of 30 on camaro's and see what it looks like.

dont let them do 2 pieces its crap and its because camaros are hard to tint and they dont know what they are doing, any decent shop should use a decent brand like lumar or suntek which come with lifetime warranty from peeling,bubbling, and discoloration. price is high for camaros 100-150 is what youd expect for the rear hatch and 50-80 for the front windows

I figured one peice would be what I want. I really like the place for 129.99 but I don't like they don't use a lifetime film I will try a couple other places today. What shade is on your car carnage9 it looks dark.

mine is 5% its really hard to see at night but i got used to it and i find that useful now, you know that if you gave me $25 i could tint your whole car? i just need to go to kragens and get some crappy tint which is what they are gonna do most likely, if your located in sacramento or nearby i can get a good deal with lifetime warranty

I went with 30% on my side windows and 10% on the rear. I think my install was $110 with a Lifetime warranty.
