Ceramic Tint Cost

Warning - Since I know prices differ between regions. That being said, I am getting this done in LA.

The boards seem to like Songs Tint Masters in LA and Tint Master City in the valley. I called both today and Songs is a bit ($200) more expensive, so made an appt. with Tint Master City.

Going with 3m Crystalline all around (including windshield). 40% sides, 70% front. We worked it down to about $600 total.

Does that sound in line with what everyone else is seeing?

Thanks.

if you're worried about interference (nav goes through the shark fin anyway), carbon tint is fine too (not metallic), and down near the $250 total range. When I asked for Huper Optik ceramic, it was $500 in NYC. Figures do not include windshield. I was convinced that unless I lived in a hot zone (ie. AZ), I wouldn't need the highly reflective properties of the ceramic anyway... now I see where you're from.

BTW, if you need more options, you can check your state here: http://www.tintdude.com/site-map-1.html

Thanks. Sounds like the pricing is in line.

I honestly don't even like the look of tint, but as you can see, it is a necessity here in AZ. I have ceramic on my wife's audi and there is a noticeable difference during the summer. Seems expensive now, but when it is over 120 outside this summer, I would pay ANYTHING for the ceramic. haha
