I would like to know an estimate on around how much it cost to get the windows tinted all the way around on a 92 camaro rs

 

well i got all my windows tinted ( beside's windshield) on my TA for 150 so roughly 150-160 would be a good estimate

 

My tint cost $150 for the side windows and rear window. It was 15%

 

170 for me

 

it cost me 150 or 160 for the rear window a few weeks ago . Im in ny so tinting isnt legal to do on the sides , i think that makes it cost more since more people dont do it. They did my back window in one big piece and the guy said it was the hardest windows he had done. It came out perfect . And im having the sided done at a cheaper place and they charge 70 to do the sides . o yeah the first place that tried to do the rear window in 1 piece they woulda charged 80 to do the rear , So it really matters where you go to get it done.

 

i just got the sides done today 7/20. now its 5% all around. I wish i could do the windshield bc it still isnt as dark as id like , but o well .

 

oopps i forgot the pic.

 

heres a pic of my car. 35% in the fronts and 13% in the rears. So far the police hasn't hassle me with the front tints ( knock on wood)

 

I was quoted $190 to do the windows and hatch here in So Cal. He uses computers to cut the tint. I guess it's not cheap, but the tinter guarantees for life that the tint will NOT turn purple. I HATE purple tints!

 

Yes, make sure you get a lifetime warranty on tint and Labor. I did. it can be cheaper without. But I don't think it would be worth it.

 

15% $100

 

Im getting 15% all around on friday. I live in Indiana and the legal limit is 35%!!!! Hope i dont get much trouble....haha. 35% is just to light for me so im goin dark.



Indiana Tinting Laws are

 

15% is going to cost me $170 after tax but hey what can i say??Its illegal and they are willing to do it. Anybody with 15% have much trouble in Indiana?

 

when i got quotes for mine to be 35 fronts and 15 rear it was like 300-350 here in montana

i wish i could get it done for 150

 

I wouldnt pay over $150. Also be sure to use a shop that uses Solar Guard tint. I used to work at a tint shop. This stuff is very thick and has a lifetime warranty against peeling, bubbling, and it won't turn purple.

 

I'm moving to Indiana in two weeks and my shade took a crap and I was going to get the window tinted. If I went darker than what is allowed but is legal here would I get much trouble since my car will still be an Illiinois licensed car? I'll be living there for 10 months or so.

 

As long as it is legal in the state your are licensed in, and you are only in the new state temporarily, it is doubtful you will get a ticket. It would be no different than driving through a state where tint was illegal.

I've gotten pulled over 4 or 5 times for tint and gotten out of it every time.

 

Ok cool was just wondering. Thanksman. Living there for ten months going to Lincoln Tech and getting bugged about my tint every day may get a little anoying.

 

150 is the going rate it seems just make sure that the guy know's what he is doing b/c i've seen a lot of really crappy tint jobs

 

Is this made by 3M?

 

can they do this tint in one peice? i took it to one shop for an estimate and they wanted to go between every defroster line.. i was like wtf... kus i wanna get rid of the defroster lines... how can i do this? the defroster is f'ed up as it is.. so how can i remove them red lines? thanx.... also is your guys tint one peice?

 

160 all windows..cept for the obvious front windshield ...20 percent , no hasle from cops yet , make sure u get lifetime warranty from the shop or the brand they use

 

$130 here, %5 rear, %15 sides, and also includes the tint stip on the front and a lifetime warranty

 

Limo tint isn't illegal is it? How much % is that?

 

its not illegal i suppose as long as you dont limo tint the sides..back can be as dark as u want....limo tint % is im guessing 0%

 

Limo tint is around 5%, depending on brand.

 

How much can I put on the sides than? Whats the limit? I want my windows as dark as possible. Regardless of visibility. Thanks for the input.

 

Just got a quote today for rear hatch window for $85.00.

 

I would like to add to this to be informative. Tint that turns purple is because of Cleaning with a substance that contains Ammonia, it has a chemical recation with the dye in the film. To clean Tint Use a spray bottle with water. I worked at Ziebart For quite a while as a detailer,window tinter and later on as a Assistant Manger.

when looking for a tint shop talk to them and make sure that the tint is a Metalized Film. It requires a metalized film to be able to heat shrik the tint, heat shrinking allows them to use one big piece of tint to do the window pluse it will lay better and less chance of bubbles. Also I would recommend cleanning you Windows with glass cleaner and steel wool (except rear if you have defrosters) to make sure that there isn't any stickie stuff on the inside of the windows.

Plus don't forget if you have a lot of nicks and scratches on the windows the tint will make them stand out more, and last of all, DO NOT ROLL DOWN WINDOWS FOR 3DAYS= Pull Power Window Fuse.

Just my .02

Oh BTW the ziebart I worked at was in Indiana and the tint laws are 35% Front 20% Rear, Some shops will do darker Just Cash Only and No Recipt. Don't Give the Police a reason to check the tint and 15% all the way around would be fine.

 

I worked at a tint shop and did windows 8hrs a day for 5 months and let me tell you, my GTA hatch was damn tough. I got a 4 inch crease on one side of it.

I did the window with two pieces. There is no way they can one piece that window because you would need 40" wide film. A good shop will two piece it and make the cut on one of the defrosters so you cannot tell it is two pieces.

The side edges will not look that great though even with a skilled tinter because there is a metal wire that runs up and down the sides of the hatch to power the defroster lines. Take a look.

Anyways, do NOT attempt this yourself unless you have a good year experience doing tint, This is probably the 2nd hardest window to tint, the hardest is one of those Gremlin cars like on WAyne's World movie.

$85 to do the hatch is a very good price. The tint would cost you $40 if you did it yourself with good film.

 

I was told by the eclipse tint company that quote for $85.00 it would be a one piece. It doesnt matter what % I want its $85.00. I do have rear defrost. Anything else I should know before I have this done?

 

Ask them what brand of tint they use.

We used Solarguard and gave lifetime warranty against peeling and bubbling. Make sure they do the same.

If they can one piece it they must use a computer to cut the tint. Ask them if they do that also. It is impossible (as far as I know) to one piece it by hand.

AFter it is done, look closely for tiny white bubbles when looking at the tint from the outside. Each speckle you see is dirt and they will not go away. If there is too much dirt make them redo it.

 

Ok and thanks for the input. I will do some more checking into it before I have it done.

 

wow, i guess being sponsered by an interior shop helps...im getting my windows done next week for 120$ thats in southern cali. im gettin 5% on the back and 20% on the sides. its illegal to have any form of tint on your side windows in california, but shops will do it because you rarley will get a ticket for it. this is lifetime warrenty againt all the normal stuff..bubbling, purpling, all that stuff. and i dont have rear defrost, so theyre doing it in one piece. he said if the rear window wasnt huge it would be 100$. i love being sponsered. the reason im getting tint is so i can take off my louvers and put the sponser stickers on. check out my sponsers site if u want www.coronasunroof.com he does great work, and gets me hook ups wherever i want.
