My local dealer quoted me about $900 including sunroof, not even specifying tint grade, percentage. etc.

Hahahahaha well, SF Bay Area...

250 3M entry level film, will replace by the top of the line at 500, as I hated the color and application.

It cost me $329 in Michigan for Suntek CXP (Carbon) for all windows minus windshield. The price also included a lifetime warranty backed by the installation center against scratching or fading.

I went with 35% on the front sides and 18% on the rest.

I have lifetime coverage on the tint.

I'm wondering, though, this being my first tint: do you all ever see teeeeny bubbles in the finished application? I mean, after the settling in. I see a few dots here and there towards the corners on some of the windows. I may take it in.

D&L Tinting in Baltimore did mine.

$689. That's for 3M Crystalline. 40% on sides and back, clear on the windshield. Got into my JCW the other day when it was 88 degrees out and sunny.... inside the car might have been 92-93 degrees. Without the Crystalline on the windshield, would have easily been 115 in there. Given the number of hot and sunny days that care will see in it's lifetime, worth every penny.

They've done three of our MINIs now. The others have 3M but not Crystalline and no windshield film. An R50 was $225 and the R60 was $305.

Does anyone know of a decent tint place in DC or VA? The dealer quoted me 450 for ceramic--seems steep. VA law is 50% +/- 7% drivers/passenger side windows and 35% for rear and back. With a doctors signature, the 50% can drop to 35%. Oddly if the vehicles is a multi purpose vehicle there is no limit for rear and back (defined as a van, pickup truck, or any vehicle for occasional off road use qualify like an SUV. Since the CM ALL4 could be used for occasional offroad use, I assume it qualifies? Again, I am looking for a quality installer with straight cuts trimming around the window edge and a business that will be there in a year if it begins to peel --not a buddy that does it in his driveway.

$190 SF Bay Area for 70% front side windows and 5% limo tint on back windows. Worried that it was going to be too dark but so far so good!
