Question for those who has tints done by a shop.
Last time I got a car fully tinted was back in 1999 and it cost $150 lol. I know I know prices have definitely gone up since. But I was recently quoted $175 for front two windows and $150 for the pano sunroof using ceramic tint. Is ceramic tint that much more expensive or is that the going rate these days? By the way for what it’s worth...comes with 7 year warranty and certification of authenticity. May look to do the same with the side mirrors auto fold and tailgate.

It’s been 3 days since I got the front windows and sunroof tinted and not happy about it. There is dirt bubbles and some marks I can’t explain. Called the shop today and spoke to the owner he apologized and told me to bring it when ever I want and he’ll make it right. Why can’t their workers just get it right the first time?!?! Now I have to take half a day from work to get the tints redone

But to be fair, even art of tint messed up one of my windows, had a little crease which they said they will fix when I bring it in. Haven’t had time though and it’s not that noticeable. They really need a clean environment for the tint install. Bubbles go away but lint/dirt/creases don’t... good luck with fix, im sure they will make it right. |

Oh cool. We'll see how it pans out. Their message said that it may take a lot longer because of the pandemic. Plus obv extra time coming from the UK to the US.
