Default $$$ 4 tinting?

How much does it cost to tint the rear windows and the two passenger windows? I got a quote for $225. Is that too high?

depends on what kind of film is being used on the car. around here my friend usually quotes people at 160 for a 4 door car 140 for a 2 door at the basic film, 200 for the next level up and 260 for the one with a little bit a chrome shine in it

I'm in SoCal and I frequently go to a place called California Tint. They do a really good job and warranty their work. I got all 5 windows tinted with Titanium tint for $120. They also stripped off the somewhat worn OEM tint that the dealer already had on for $20 so my total was $140. Hope this helps. I think 200+ is a bit pricey.

Yah, I would say no more than 200 for the highest quality 4 door car completed except for front window... For what you want shouldn't be more than 175 but you could find it for more like 130-150.

theres one guy around here... he charges about $180 for most cars... he uses the best tint (from what I hear) and he warranties it for life against scratching and bubbling/peeling.

He cuts it with a computer controlled cutter on the wall, perfect cuts everytime... its vehicle specific in the computer.

He did my old car a few years ago before he had the high-tech equipment, and it still came out perfect... so $180 wasnt too bad to be, considering the warranty and all.
