Windshield tint price?

McAuley7 · 11-30-2013, 06:50 PM

I wanna get windshield tinted and recently got tints on other car. They told me $150 for windshield is this over priced compared to $175 for all windows minus windshield...

I got a quote for this a while back. It was $180 for just the windshield. It was some high quality 70% film I don't remember what brand though. $150 sounds reasonable to me if its good quality tint.

That sounds high... I got 7 other windows (not windshield) for 180 with quality tint (pro performance). Maybe they charge a lot because its illegal in some places?

Don't understand why it's so much more ok $50-100 but not more than 100

A compound curved window is hard to do...takes more time.

I just had a groupon where I paid 80 bucks to tint my whole car with 3m film. so I would pay 180 for just the windsheid but that's just me

The windshield is more expensive because its a big window and the tint is more expensive. The tint has to block out heat without being too dark.
