How much did you pay for window tint?

Just curious if I got a good deal or not. 5 windows for 200 cash through my car dealerships detailing shop. I was expecting to pay around $450

A lot of the cost depends on the quality of tint. I think I paid around 180 for 5 windows, Suntek CXP tint.

Well I told them straight up if it turns purple I'm going to flip my ****.
They assured me it was high quality window tint and wont change color then explained to me how hard it is to take the old tint off the back window and how expensive it is, so I felt pretty good about it

I think I paid around $130 with lifetime guarantee. If it peels, turn purple or whatever, they will replace it free. $450 is crap ton.. I would have to say you got ripped off. I can see $450 for a Suburban or something but not a Z.

Where did he say it cost him $450?
I read he expected $450, but it was $200.

If you go ceramic all the way around I wouldnt see 450 being far fetched

Sorry, thought that was the quote. From what I know about tinting,,the expensive pane is the big hatch one. They can do it with two smaller pieces to reduce price but that's the only one where they use oversized film to cover. I believe I have solar guard or suntec ceramic for $130 ish.
