Tint Zone in Rowland heights. Tell the owner David that Eric from BMW sent you.

Are the following expectations reasonable in this area for an M4, no windshield?

3m ceramic $300
3m crystalline $400
huper optik $500

I've had a good experience at G5tint in alhambra. You can check out their yelp page photos for pricing. They do huper and 3M.

Hard to tell prices from the photos! the reviews say they're pricier than any others..

If you want huper optik try songs tint masters, u can pm if interested and want an intro (I have a few friends that work for the owner)

I had mine done 3-4 years ago so prices for huper weren't too bad. I guess business was good so they increased prices.

+1.

Their a bit pricey but went there recently and they did a good job. I think their 3m crystalline is like $600 for everything except windshield (175 for windshield). Huper is like $495. Some of their Yelp pictures show the various tint prices.

Also, they only do work by appointment.

I went with their Llumar Ceramic and have been happy with it.

I ended up going with Llumar ceramic also from G5 tint and so far looks great.

When you check the edge of the tint (on the M4) it goes all the way to the very edge of the window. Looks like pretty good work!

I got a great place in Sherman Oaks that I take all my cars to and just took my F80 to on Saturday that did 3M for $165... 30 on the doors, 15 on the rear window.

You mind sending me a PM with your tint shop? I've taken my previous cars to Fresh Tintings and they do a great job at a good price. Always have to deal directly with the owner to get the best cash price. I took my wife's x5 there last year and got Huper Optik on all sides and back for $500.

Which 3M did you use?

Not sure what 3M I paid for, to be honest I'm not that anal about what goes on my windows, as long as they're dark and keep the car cool.
