How much for windows tinting

[Devil-MSP]

anyone know around how much to tint our car's windows will consider good-deal or fair price?

[Micah]

I have Everything but my Windshield tinted with metal tint, I think it's called ""LLUMAR"" or something like that. I paid $125 in NJ.

I went with 35% all around. I had 5% on my cherokee and it was way too dark. Couldn't see well at night, and got pulled over alot. 35% still lets enough light through that you can drive around without looking like your car is shady.

i did mines 20%, perfect. i paid about $200.

[nattyboy513]

[Devil-MSP]

great, 20% looks perfect to me. Isn't there some color i can choose from? sorry i don't know anything about tinting

[nate0123]

Nattyboy, did you get it done in the Cincinnati area? If so, where?

[funnylittlman]

I payed $200 w/ lifetime no fade warranty, etc.

It's called SunTek or SolarGuard.

They did a pretty good job.

hey funnylittlman: what's the percentage of your tint?

[funnylittlman]

Devil,

I have 35% all the way around. It looks pretty dark in that photo, and it's not ALL that.. 20% is really dark IMHO, so that's why I stayed at 35% (It keeps the car cool, and it looks good enough for me :D )

Here's another shot, this might show you the real look from the sides:

Paid $225 for mine, that included a "no fault warrenty". Even If I scratch it, it'll be replaced free.

paid 175 for johnson reflective building tint. It's like 3 times as thick as normal tint, and is super reflective from the outside. It reflects about the same as the paint when it's clean and is blue from the inside

hope I figured it out

250 life time warrenty 15%

they used a high quality tint that they often use on sky scraper buildings. thats why mine is 250.

the film was incredibly thick after the 3 day no rolling down your windows for a week or two after that my windows didn't roll up and down very will. becuz it was alot thicker.

works fine now. very dark. look hardcore.

[unwound]

paid $150 in tampa, fl. incl glare strip
solargard hp film 35% on front two, 20% on the rest
machine cut and lifetime warranty on everything!

What % is that? Looks perfect.

[krillin]

has anyone else noticed their tint get scratched from pulling the window up and down? also, when i roll up the windows it seems to move slower than i remember before i got the tint. any comments?

[2K3 MSP]

mine will be $225 for all of them, no windsheild of course. I'm still debating on the back though...I'm gonna do 35% in front for sure, but the back will be 5% or 20%. I just think with 5% it'll be too drastic of a change from front to back. I don't want people to bee peeking in my back windows though, so 5% adds a little more peace of mind for me. Hmmm...

[dominoy2k1]

damn thats alot of money....and i thought the 60 i paid was alot..

Your tint shouldnt be scratching from the window... unless your inside is that dirty with sand! Go and see what kind of tint they used.... they might have used lower quality tint..... unfortunately, you get what you pay for when you ge ttinting done... UNLESS you know someone who can do it for you.

The best tint out there has sputtered aluminum in it and has a lifetime warranty from scratching/fading/peeling/bubbling - also has a nice 'mirrory' finish from the outside but nothing too major like mirror tint. (just look at funnylittle mans car - my P5 windows look exactly the same.)But its pricey... i paid 300 Canadian for all windows -windsheild @ 35%, as well clear lens guard on my fog lights.
