hey guys, i drive a honda civic, and the tint has been real bubble'y for years. i think im going to finally get around to changing it. how much should i expect to spend? whats a good place in NW Houston? thanks!
I got mine done recently at Executive Motorsports on Gessner and Westview just north of I-10. Here's their number: 713-467-7000 I highly recommend them. Their prices vary, but they certainly have prices in the $70-$100 range. They do great work. Give them a call. Now, I paid around $350 for mine, but I got the tip-top quality limo tint on all my windows. No, its not street-legal. No, I don't want to hear about it. Anyway, mine came with a life-time guarantee and its all kinds of bad-ass. FWIW, I was willing to pay so much in part because I'm in the middle of restoring my Mustang.
Go to Star Auto Tint. It runs about 100-150. The people who work their are jackasses, but the product is very good. The Audi dealerships of Houston send their cars their to get "factory" tinted.
Executive Motorsports is where i got mine Formula 1 tinting off of westheimer is good Now get off my name pdub.
With a new car, if you pay over $120 you're getting shafted, unless there are circumstances. I guess if they have to remove some stuff they will have to charge labor.
Remember that a retint job includes removing old tint and glue. No easy task. Try it. It its just a tint, expect between $100-150.00.
I need details. What are the plans? Daily Driver? Weekend Driver? Full Race? Obviously, you won't be going street legal. I have $100.00 to say you don't/won't be running cats. I WANT PICS!!!
I used them but I got the 219 package with the free lifetime warranty. The warranty states if I ever want to go lighter or darker I can just bring. If the window is ever broken the tine gets redone for free. It basically covered everything. Get good tint. It makes a difference in how cool the interior stays.
Executive Motors is the best place in my opinion. I think they have 2 locations - I got all my cars tinted there (Hillcroft location). I just got VW Jetta tinted ... limo tint on the back ... darkest allowed by law on the front --- $200
I used to have limo tint all around, but I had to get it removed because the windows would not pass inspection. But if you happen to know the inspection guy, he might be able to trick the system by scanning another window through the machine. Its a kind of hassle to do that though.
wow. everything must be cheaper in texas, cuz in California - San Francisco, a decent tint job on a new car is at least $200+
If you pay $70-120 to get the whole car tinted its probably not the best film that lets more sun and heat through than more expensive tint.
