Sweet, you'll be saving some money then. Gotta love it. I feel naked without my tint. Like I'm in a fishbowl. Even the cops in FLA have their cars aftermarket tinted.

He's on crack for $375.

Even for a big SUV in all 5%, I don't remember the place I used to work for charging over $200 w/ lifetime warranty and quality tint. Do you have any tint on the car already? I know we usually doubled the price if we had to strip old tint first.

Wow $375! Do you have any friends, co-workers, family or anything that wants tint too? I called a local shop and told him I had 3 cars I wanted done and had two co-workers that were interested and he dropped his price $40 per car. Impala (all around) cost $180, Monte (all around) $150 and the truck (just the doors) cost $75. All 30% lifetime warrenty through Llumar at ANY Llumar dealer so if he goes out of business I'm still good, until Llumar bites the dust.

yea man ................ im in the baton rouge area. and i got the two doors AND 2 back quarters panel windows tinted 15% (illegal in Louisiana) and the guy only charged me $100. while i was leaving ....... on the way down the damn street , theres a state trooper trying hard to meet his quota so i easily got pulled over.


and what makes it worse is the s.o.b. made me roll the window down to get it measured. of course when i rolled it back up theres was dozens of big *** bubbles. boy was i PISSED. man that was a bad day, but the tint guy fixed it up for me no charge.

gotta dodge the boys in blue when i ride though
