Yep the 4 sides and rear. I'm not doing the windshield because they mount our inspection stickers on the inside of the window, and typically scrape the old one off with a razor blade.

If you don't mind can you take a picture of your rear window tints and point out where the split is. Im getting my windows done and i what to run this option with them.
I just found out my tint was split for the rear glass. The shop never disclosed this to me even after asking multiple times on how they approach the rear glass. TBH, I'm in a really crappy tint situation, but I may make another thread for that story as I did for my PPF scenario. Anyway, I would have said 'hell no' if the shop was upfront about it so I'm thinking the tint rep might have known that so he purposefully withheld that info.

Honestly I rather have them do it that way cause I'm not trying to take my wings off just for them to tint it, as long as they do it were I can't tell. How did it come out? Was it a crapy job?
