Doesn't look that bad from afar...

Bought a cheap tint kit on ebay. Terrible fitment. Bubbles and wrinkles galore in this thing.

But from afar...doesn't look too shabby. I think next year I'll buy another set of rears and actually get them tinted. I like the darkness of this is though.

Not too bad. I would suggest checking custom stereo shops. Most that i have talked to do this or have it done. I am going to do mine, and they told me 100 bucks for really dark tint. From what i have seen, they do good work. Just an idea.

for the bubbles and wrinkles try using a plastic scraper wrapped in a towel and a hair dryer, just be super gentle...

Really? I would never think to check a place like that.

I did use a scraper and a hair dryer...it was just poorly made to the point where it didn't conform to shape at all.

lol you own c55. you more than likely have the 200 dollars necessary to have a tint professionally installed and warranted for life

Doesn't look bad at all! I'm sure you can get those bubbles worked out.
