just lookin to see what others have paid (and yes, i realise it varies from place to place)

at my work, we charge $199 for 2 door cars, but for camaros/firebirds (there's no 1/4 glass windows obviously) we only charge $175. but to answer your question...only about $30 in tint to do my car

tack on another $150 for the windshield though. we only carry 36" and 24" rolls, and we need to special order a 40" roll to do the gigantic windshield!

our tint has a lifetime warranty as well. it's a dyed film, not metallic, but still has lifetime warranty!

WOW some of you people got jacked on the price. I payed $80 for 5% on the front two windows and the back hatch, AND I have lifetime warranty. I guess it all just depends on where you live and who you know!
