I just looked at the SE website and nothing on there (unless probably logging in) talks about services offered.

Do I have to register?

Graphix Zone is more expensive compared to what i've seen offered thru SE-Chicago.com... GZ is a great place to get vinyle work done... I used them all the time for the previous car that i had, and would highly recommend them if you are looking to do "wraps" or vinyle work. Tints on the other hand can be had else where for a better price.

Like i said in a different thread it is a matter of time until you get pulled over, buddy had his tints for a year and a half no problems and just last week he got pulled over at a stop light. He was just sitting there and cop pulled up.

lots of places do it. Just look in the yellow pages. Just make sure they have a 1 year warranty and that they dont charge more then $180

Rage, how much do just do the back windows? I wanna go darker back there, but I don't wanna deal with cops, so I'm gonna leave the front windows alone.
