Depends on how much he is charging you. If he does a good job (no bubbles or mess) then it wouldn't hurt to.

Do you believe in tipping? (Cue opening conversation from Reservoir Dogs.)

Would you tip the driver at a car dealership who brings you your car for pickup?

I would if the price is dirt cheap or you'll be having him/her tint alot of cars for yourself, family or business etc. If they go out of their way or do something extra for you I would also tip.

Tipping should be customary. I tip based on attitudes towards the situations, and how much effort is put into making me happy.

Window tinting does not require a tip. You're paying for them to do the work. Do you tip for windshield replacement, oil changes, new tires, etc?

It depends, If I know the person is getting some cheap wage, and he does do a great job I give them a tip.

If it's someone who's charging you on his own, or as a side job that's a whole different story.
