Getting tint done on my 4th gen

I am interested in getting my max tinted, i am curious as to how much the rest of the org spent on a tint job for their max, and about how long did it take.

I called place local to me and they said $210 for all windows except the windshield which comes with a 3 year warrentee. As much as $310 for better film and a lifetime warrentee The whole process would take about 2 hours.

2 hours seems a bit quick to tint an entire vehicle....

Let me know what your experiences are......

Sorry to steal this thread, but I'm looking into tinting my 4th gen too. Does anybody know where I can find the regulations about tinting? I'd need Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa if anyone can help me out. Thanks

technically you only need to obey the laws where you are a resident(or your car is registered, not sure which). you cant be ticketed lawfully for illegal tint in say missouri if you live in a state where tint is legal.

i belive its the full faith and credit clase

dont know if this applies to you

Here in madison they rip you off for everything from tinting to heating bills. Mine was $310 including sunroof and banner. I've got a lifetime warrentee. But i will soon be going back to redo the back window and banner to 5% and windows 15%.

i'd love to get my back window re-tinted because it's tough to see out of...not dark, but very blurry. i've heard it's expensive to get that removed and have them just do that back window. seems like that costs more than tinting all windows in the first place.
