Tint cost - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I've priced a few local places selling 3m color stable, llumar ctx, and American film. I've been quoted anywhere from $450 to $560 for removal of current tint (bubbling bad), all side windows at 15-20%, rear 5%, and clear tint on windshield. Does this sound high or normal?

Llumar ctx all windows- $475
3M sides rear and madico windshield - $560
American standard i think $350 with no windshield

Sounds high. I paid $150 for sides and rear. Ceramic film.

Seemed like a lot to me but i wasnt sure what a good rate was after going to three local places and getting these prices

$300-$400 is normal for a quality ceramic film (not including windshield). They shouldn't charge much (if anything) for removal of the old film.

$225 for all 5 at 20%.

$200 for 3m color stable all around.
$70 for front windshield.
$40 for old tint removal.

These were the prices at the tint shop I worked at. We were the largest distributor of 3m on the east cost though so that helped keep costs down.

I paid $80

Why clear tint on the windshield? (I know it's illegal here to tint the front in NY) but why clear?

Well I know crystalline 70% tint is clear and it blocks 70% IR rays, 40% UV and helps keep the car much cooler.

I'll be going back to see what the best price they can do is since it seems I've been quoted pretty high

Yea it helps down here when my car sits in sun all day while I'm at work. It's clear to be legal but keeps the heat out
