I just had it done this weekend. Paid about $270 for:
Chrome 20 on the front windshield above the A-Line;

Chrome 50 on the front windows, and

Chrome 35 on the back windows.

PS: The legal tint limits in Virginia are 35 on the backs, and 50 on the fronts.

Thanks to all for posting photo's and other info related to tinting. I'm having my car tinted this week. I'm leaning towards 35% all the way around. I would go darker but I think I'm moving to the Jersey area in the next few months. I was glad to read that even with the strict tint laws in Jersey many of you have still tinted your side windows.

I will post photos...

I'd like to thank everyone also. I'm going with 35% all around along with 50% on the front windshield.

I went to two shops for pricing and this is what I was quoted. Quote included covering sides and rear.

Llumar CTX $279.99
Llumar ATR $204.99
Llumar ATC $179.99

3M Color Stable $239.99

Aegis $159.99

SunTek $149.99

I have read good things about both Llumar CTX and 3M Color Stable. But is the CTX worth the extra $40?

Yup cops in florida don't really bother you about tints unless it's the end of the month.

I was quoted $225 for sides and rear, but I can get $100 off if I go with clearbra install too for $695 OTD. And it looks like 35% is the way to go. Looks perfect.
