Just the rear window not the side ones.
You cant tell a foot away that it has a purple hint to it just when ur really close to it
but if its good tint it will still turn purple right?
if so in how many years or it depends on the sun?

The rear window is semi-horizontal and gets sun more often. It's always the first to fail.
Good tint should outlast the ownership of your vehicle. If it doesn't the good tint will have a warranty covering color change. Things like ceramics or pigmented films will outlast dyed products by a long time.

It's normal if you paid $99. If you had paid for a quality product this is premature film failure.
The starter of this thread got 3M Color Stable 35%. It's a "nano-carbon" impregnated film that has a nationwide lifetime warranty covering color change. Sure, he paid $200 (which is actually a really good price for 3M CS), but if it ever turns purple he gets it replaced for free. In two years he won't be asking people why his rear window is starting to turn purple.
