What's the Going Rate For A Quality Tint Job, Coupe/Convertible?

Just like the title says, I know the convertible has a smaller back glass but I don't even know if I want that tinted...it shouldn't be ridiculous like the 4-doors because the back glass isn't as goofy. TIA!

Mine was done for $119.

$119, was that for a coupe or convertible and what percent does it have?

[ManicMechanic]

Convertible, 35%...Too bad I didn't get pics because it looked pretty good.

Thanks for the info. I need to get mine done, today was 88 degrees, it was parked in the shade with the windows cracked and it was still hot.

It has been almost 100 here and the A/C went out (fixed quickly) in my van.........

I'm trying to find out the absolute maximum my LQ1 can return gas mileage wise with this tank of fuel...you know what that means...NO A/C!

only till about 45 mph if you listen to mythbusters... after that, the vaccuum created in the rear of the car overrides the loss of horsepower/fuel economy you would use with your a/c.

 

I accelerate with a/c off, then kick it back on once i'm cruising.

 

that is.. if you believe mythbusters.

I'd love to do their job...

paid $250. got passanger door, and three rear windows tint off, and redone the whole car including windshield, 5 years warranty. I think it was a good deal, I'm a sort of regular customer at that shop now, so they give me better prices (I hope, lol)

I hope to do mine soon while the interior is out to make it easy on them... what % should I get/do you recommend?

LOL better get used to that around here. Most places around here charge $125-200 depending on the car.
