window tint...

I have been thinking of getting my windows tinted, and have a range of different prices..I was wonder what everyone else has paid to have there's done? The range has been from $169-299..I know I paid $125 to have my M3 done, but that was in Charlotte NC now that i'm in Atlanta and the prices seem much higher..

I got mine for $129.95 at National Glass Tinting in Kensington, Md.

Quality work and LIFETIME warranty.

Wow, it is no where near that cheap here. I got a quote for $269 and they looked at the rear window and didn't look encouraged.

What is the problem with getting the rear window tinted? I am asking because I plan to tint mine when I get the car and would like to know the problem.

Peace, LTK

Well, the problem usually happens on v6 accords more than TL/CL's, its the dots on the top of the rear window, my tint shop tinted over it and said there shouldnt be any problems with it bubbling up or anything, and so far it sticks perfectly. I think the dots on the accords and integras had a different texture than the dots that we have, therefore it sticks better.
