Drivers window tint is wrinkling

Is it easy to match (color, shade)?
DIY?
If not, how much should I expect to pay?

Thanks.

i recently had my front two done in my pathfinder for $50. call around to find a good price. it may be a bit more for you since they'll have to remove the existing tint first (though you may be able to do that part yourself w/out too much trouble). from what i've heard putting up the tint yourself is feasible but not worth it in the long run.

color/shade matching should be easy for a professional, though you may just want to get both the fronts done so they match perfectly.

You can remove the old tint yourself. After you peel it off it will leave a residue. Take a razor blade and a bottle of warm soapy water or some windex. It will scrap right off. Tinting isn't too difficult, you need to remove the door panels to keep the tinyt from getting ripped off. I wouldn't tint in the winter, wait till its hot out, the tint will be more secure.
