Window Tint Brands...

I want to get my windows tinted this week and I was wondering whats the best tint brand. I heard about Lunar ....and So far I think thats the best brand, but the tinting places over here want way too much. I want 20% but I want a nice mirror tint to go along with it. Any suggestions??

You are planning on doing this yourself? Unless you have done it before I do not suggest that as you will most likely mess up, get frustrated and just end up wasting more money...

Lunar? I think you mean Luminar or Llumar. Solar Gard is also very good. I'm buying some precut tint and putting it on myself. If I mess up, oh well. I still got enough money to buy 4x as much precut tint for the money it would cost to go to a shop.

I dont know how it is were you live but around here it only costs about 100 to 125, for any shade and most(like mine) come with a lifetime waranty against bubleing and fading. I would say go somwhere to get it done unless you have a slight idea how to and have acsses to the right materials.

I looked into having it done here in Iowa and so far, the best price I've encountered is $265 for any shade all around.

Man, except for the Iowa reply, you guys get off fairly cheaply for tinting. Around here $225 is standard. I've heard lumar is the best stuff, titanium and comes with a lifetime guarantee.
