How much did you pay for your tint job?

Tinting my windows will most likely be the first "mod" that I do. I need to know what a reasonable price to pay to tint my rear and side windows.

$295 for the good stuff (and shaving the tint on the window edges).. including a take it off, put it back on "warranty" for any tickets.. which of course I haven't gotten.

Hadn't gotten the kicker "warranty".. I'd probably be pulled over each week.

Mike's Tint Shop here in SoCal.. they do some crazy stuff, for almost every magazine out there..

The tint came on this one, but I had my 350 tinted, limo on the sides and the rear with a limo strip on the windshield. It was good quality tint, and the guy did an awesome job. Wanna say it was about $200, which is the most I've paid for tint.

My other cars in the last few years have been $115-150

EDIT: just to make sure people understand, good quality is not great quality. I chose some middle-upper grade stuff.
