Well to be really honest . . I never even planned on modding my TLS . . . but Acurazine finally took over . . resistance is futile . . . especially since I'm a long time hot rodder and drag racer.

Im considering having my tint taken off the TL and having this put on.....once I have the money
Which brand did you buy and who put it in? My GS is baking in the sun. I have gotta get it some coverage.

I'd like to redo my tint as well to the ceramic. Ethan you said it comes in different shades right? Or only in the shade you got it? I was thinking of evening out and doing 20% ceramic all around.

Why not. If we can guarantee him the business the volume should dictate some kind of break in price.
As a business person, wouldn't you discount to gain the revenue?

He obviously doesn't have to but I would bet if you proposed bringing in 10 friends (scheduled of course) he would probably be extremely happy, hell he might do the TL for a nominal amount as a finders fee for the business.

PM me his info, and I will run with the idea. Won't mention you if you prefer.
But finding someone who will do quality work is tough.

We're obviously not going to use my tint job on teh lotus as a benchmark.

Like I said, as soon as I get a committed group of cars Ill see what he'll do each one for..

Its not going to be 450.

just wanted to make sure your lotus tint job wasn't $250 thus making mine somewhere around $375-$500.

I may be interested, if it's going to be something similar to your Lotus. However, I'd like to know what he's going to charge for removing tint as well.

Dude, there is no way its going to be 150 dollars. Ill just tell yall that now.

My Lotus has windows the size of fucking sunglasse lens. The TL has like shitloads more glass to tint. Plus if you're talking about removing tint as well?

Rick let me call him. Thats the only way to really find out.

Usually 250-300 for a decent job. Also it costs 40 or so to remove your old tint if you have it.

Did she take advantage of you while you were in a helpless position?

As for the window tint, we just need the two side windows done on the Prelude, so if we get a good price we're in.
