So this guy I know quoted me 225 OTD for llumar 5% all the way around. Is this fair based on other's experience here? Thanks as usual guys!

Dang, 17 hits and no one can say if this is a good deal for window tint? Had my CL not come with 5% already when I bought it I would not even ask.....

I got solar gard hp quantum 28%. It was the top of the line tint that the tint shop carried and i payed about 220 if i remember correct.

Sounds like a good dealprice wise but 5% is a little on the hood side. Its just too dark IMO and at night is downright ridiculous trying to see out. I personally think 20% all around is the darkest I would do that still gives you almost completely black looking windows but allows you to see out somewhat at night. I have 20% all around (obviously minus windshield) on my Lexus looks good but is a little tough to see at night. When I had my 07 Type S I had 35% all around and loved it.

Its a fair price, but I wouldnt worry so much about pricing rather the quality of the tint job. Make sure that price includes the moleskin as its needed otherwise the tint film will scratch.

Also the other thing I forgot, make sure that on the rear side small windows that they tuck the tint back behind the rubber strip. If he claims that he cant do it go elsewhere as they obviously arent "good" tinters. My guy did all the windows for 200 even.

Wow 5%? that seems eat to dark. If you have dark interior I'd say 35% at the darkest and 20% for light interior. Keep it classy for a classy car. I paid $400 for my formula 1 pinnacle series 50% with a lifetime warranty against scratches, bubbling, peeling, basically anything that is wrong with the tint, they'll replace free. That price also included installation of all four windows with moleskins.

Also you realize this is full privacy "limo" tint you are applying? I'm not sure about your laws but I'm almost certain you will be pulled over especially if you have dark interior. I wouldn't go lower than 20% cause even that is pushing it.

220 sounds fair for llumar. just make sure its not metallic based and I think 20%-35% looks perfect.

Shops around here charge about 160$ for all 4 side windows and the back window. That's using Llumar as well. Lucky me I know a guy who does it at his house on a side job. I have 15% sides/back on mines..but with the tan interior it doesn't look dark enough for me. Black interior makes tint look a lot more dark.

5% is a bit hood. I had 15% all around on my '05 red Accord coupe (tan leather) back in the day. Made for a dark and cozy interior during the day and was supremely dark at night. The contrast of the red and black was sharp.

The price is decent. I have Llumar as well on my '08 NBP Type S (blk 2-tone interior) - 15% on the back window, 35% on the sides - with the rear quarters tinted completely (no strip is visible). I paid $250 with moleskin. Make sure they do the entire quarter section; if they say they can't, go somewhere else because it most certainly can be done without any extra charge.

anywhere from 40-50 a window is standard price for good tint

johnfilice

yea thats a good price, good luck if you put 5% on your driver and passenger windows as ive tried in the past and ive had about.... 5 or 6 window tint tickets. now i have 50% on the fronts and 5% in back and i dont get any trouble.

price seems okay but if your thinking about going that dark you should consider tapering it off such as 5 in back, 15 rear, and 25 up front. It really feels like limo all the way around but you can still check your blind spots at night.

its not the blind spots when your driving because cars have their lights on. the problem i think is parking

on my jeep liberty i have 5% on the front, and 25% over the stained glass on the sides and back i think. i can see fine when driving, when i park i have to put the windows down.

05TLbase

Thats what i meant... I almost ran down some ppl backing out of parking lots. If only shoes that light up when u walk would catch on again..

Acutron

Yeah so after looking it over that was waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too dark. I am going to go 20% my appointment is tomorrow and it dropped the price even more Thanks for the feedback as usual guys!
