$210 for 5% on all the windows and 35% on my windshield. Plus, they came to me and did it in my garage. I didn't have any previous tint removal that needed to be done though, so that might be why it's a tad bit more for you...

Hey man, you should check Sunbusters on 183 and Duval.. Its beside the Shell Gas station on the right.. Lexus brings all their cars there.. I definitely had a good hook up there and there work is excellent!!! 5% on the rear and 20% all around on my Mitsubishi, and that was the darkest you can go legally.. But damn laws changed it to 30% just recently.. I dont know why they did that and they know its hot here in Texas.. But I found this other place called Island Audio, its on Lamar and Braker.. After Chinatown.. They gave me a really good price on the tint for my GS.. Hit me up for more details!

Got mine done with 20% around the back 3 windows and 35% in the front 2, all for $80 out of some dude's garage in Newark, NJ, its computerized tinting and all and he's really professional. It also comes with lifetime warranty if you keep his small sticker on ur front passenger corner of your windshield.

Since your getting tint removed, its sorta reasonable. I got all windows(beside Front windshield) done with 3M tint film with lifetime warranty for $200. But that was "hookup" price.

Ceramic films look nothing like sputtered films. They have a green hue but its not going to have the same reflective look to it.

Does anyone have 15% on sides+rear windows??

I'm getting tint done on Sunday and was wondering if 15% is too dark to drive to see during night.
