Default Going Rate For Window Tint?

I've been quoted $260 for "Formula One Pinnacle" window tint on a 2015 coupe. Sound about right? I have nothing to compare either the price or the product to.

Yeah, I think she mentioned that this product contains ceramic. Don't know if that is good or bad - haven't done this for a very long time!

That is very good tint, but I think I was quoted around that for my Q50 which is a 4 door.

I paid around that for my Formula One Pinnacle tint. It sounds about right to me. The tint is great at blocking heat and looks incredible. I have 18%

I paid $150 for 20% Suntek. It's not ceramic and I don't see the need to pay a premium for ceramic.

Do you have trouble with the blind spots with your dark tint? I'm in Tampa and need some tint bad.

It has higher heat rejection properties. Is is necessary? No. Does it make a difference? Yes. Is it worth the price? To each their own; I currently have one car with, and two without.
