Window Tint for new fit?

Hello,
Anyone know how much a good tint job on the fit should cost (NY)? I am planning on getting the tailgate window, and the rear doors as well as the small rear corner windows done on my BOM Fit (which I am picking up tomorrow!).
Is there any way to ensure I wont see any lines from the tint film on the glass? I want it to look flawless, not DIY.
The last tinting I got done was on my old Plymouth Voyager (my MAXI-van) about 10 years back and they charged me $35 for just the rear tailgate.
Thanks

My girl got her Fit done for $150. That was for 35% on all 9 windows.

I've been thinking about tinting the windows on my taffy white sport as well. Could anyone estimate how long does the whole process takes and how soon will I be able to roll my windows down ? Thanks =)

Mine was done in under 3 hrs.

48 hrs wait before rolling down.

It's been a long time since I've had anything tinted (about 16 years actually), and I remember you used to have to wait a week. It really sucked.

So, only 48hrs now as a general rule? I'm having mine done (35%) for free by someone the dealership contracts to. I think they usually charge $179 (in Indianapolis, IN), which seems a little on the high side.
