I completely agree... I just finished the front windows. I will post up a few pictures and give a step-by-step as much as I can in a bit. I am debating about the back windows as to whether to do them or just go get those two small windows done at a shop... I just forsee some issues reaching in there with my fat hands. I may do the rear window tonight, but football is on and I am hungry. I need to go get a scrub pad I thought I had. I definitely say leave your windows up for minimum 2 days to let the tint cure. I know I will.

EDIT: I DID NOT start at 10a like I wanted to. I started after 11a and finished right at 12:30. I have no doubt it took me longer than professional could have done it, but I am fairly pleased with the results though do admit there is room for improvement.
