Tint in Houston

Hey Houstonians,

Anyone get tint done in our fine city?

Where did you go

How Much?

Did they use the black vinyl?

Did they do a great job?

Thanks for your time.

Go 'Stros, Rockets and Texans

I got mine at Formula One on Westheimer @ Bering. It's kind of pricey, but it's worth it (lifetime warranty). It's less than $300 for Millenium tint.

$300? :wow: One question, are millenium tints mirror tints (the ones found on Lexus RX300)

I got all 7 Windows done for $180 If anyone needs hook-ups on tints and lives in the Chicagoland area, pm me

300!!! That is more than the dealer charges. I had a place quote 100 bucks and 20 for the black vinyl stuff. They did my other car 6 years ago and it still looks good. I think it is called Ultimate Protection, it is on West Park. Anyoen else have suggestions.

I think "Formula One Performance Automotive Film" is supposed to be better though.. it has a lifetime warranty against cracking, fading, peeling, bubbling, discoloring, etc. The list price is $350 (!) for 28% Millenium tints all around... You can bargain it down though. Yes, you can get tint cheaper..... but remember that you get what you pay for.

BTW dealers don't typical do tint themselves, they contract out to a local shop...
