It depends on a few factors,

The shade of the tint, The brand, warranty etc.

I would guess anywhere from $75-$125 would be fair.

I paid around $200 for all my windows tinted 5% rears, 20% fronts.

lower the % = darker.

5% is limo tint... lightest is 50%. most peeps get 20-35% for front sides. i got 50% all the way around including the windshield...and the rear window limo..looks sick on an all black car especially with black interior and black rims.

how much light is allowed to go through it.


I'm getting the back 3 tinted to 20% on my notch in the next 2 weeks, waiting for an opening at my buddies shop. quoted $65 for computer cut 3M tint [Big Grin]
He's also tinting my convertible, 20% back 3, 50% front 2 for $130. I haven't decided if I also want my notch done the same way or not, I'll decide after I see the vert, that's getting done this friday [Whoo Whooooo!]

Ern the best place and price I have found is Extreme Polish and Tint in Santa Clara.They have done MANY tint jobs for me and many other referal jobs as well.They are located on Martin/Scott near Goldies Mufflers.

Here is there number

(408) 727-9540

However Ive found the best deal you will get is to just show up with some loot and the car.For the most part they will do the job right then and there and work till about 8 [Whoo Whooooo!]

I had 5 windows done for about $200, not bad and the same time not cheap either. I will be goign back to them when I have my GT ready. The paint still needs to be buffed out and color sanded.

I had a cheap tint job done before, will NEVER do that again.
