Window tint, How much did you pay

ant9roma · 03-12-2009, 10:45 AM

I'm looking to tint my windows. New Jersey has stupid laws regaurding how and where you tint, but i'm just trying to get an idea of how much you all paid for it. i realize that across the country prices are different, but i wanna go in there knowing about how much is standard.

My boy does window tinting here in philly. Its called romeos tinting. He usually charges around 180. Does a really good job, no gap at the top of the windows, everything is computer cut.
btw he has a fg2 also.

Yea I paid $350 for mine (4 door) It's the 3m carbon I believe. It's a special blend because our FM/AM radio antenna's are built into the rear window and with just a regualr tint it can distort the reception quality.

Also lifetime warantee on fading and bubbles. Definitely on the high end of prices but absolutely the best tint job I've had. Not one bubble anywhere.

SNABBS · 03-12-2009, 12:45 PM

yea id rather save my money an extra week than have to deal with low quality tint

there is one in raritan, is the 3m really that good? I have heard some mixed thoughts about 3m

ocdcivic · 03-12-2009, 12:49 PM

Honestly I think it truly is, It's either the carbon or ceramic not sure which one it is but I can check. I've had them on for a year now and they haven't faded, peeled, or bubbled yet. I know this also comes down to the installer as well but again best tint job I've ever had, and I've had 3 of my previous cars tinted.

bigheadedsi · 03-12-2009, 01:07 PM

my guy has lifetime warranty too. i had my hatch tinted 6 years ago by him and its still gray no purpleness in sight. never had a problem with it peeling or anything either.

Albrecq'sSI · 03-12-2009, 04:40 PM

Does anyone know of a good place in san diego? Or valencia?

hygieneboy · 03-13-2009, 09:13 AM

Llumar and 3M are the best tints out there!!!!!

SXYAZ6SPD · 03-13-2009, 09:28 AM

I only use lumar and I charge about 130 a car. A roll of lumar tint is 320 itself

bouncer07 · 03-13-2009, 09:36 AM

$48/ a window. 4 Doors are usually more expensive. StreetzScenes where I go to get mine tinted and they have it lifetime so if it bubbled up you can take it back and get it redone. The small windows are usually half of $48 so it's $24.
$48 x 2 for 2 Door
$24 x 2 small ones
$48 x 1 back one
Total would come out to be $192.00 for tints. Hope this helps. Every state is different but this would be an estimate price for a window.

FG2BoostCoupe · 03-13-2009, 12:36 PM

every where I've been in NJ its usually around 200 for 5 windows and a drop, I lived in winter park fl for a few years and I got charged 110 for the same thing, funny how the jack the price where its illeagal
