    I'm looking for recommendations for a tint shop in the suburbs of Chicago, the closer to Naperville the better.

    I've had a couple vehicles tinted at Z-Tech Naperville and I was very happy with their work.

    I've only ever had non-ceramic tints installed and I thought Z-Tech was a little pricy for this non-ceramic film but not too high. I don't remember specifically what I paid, but I think around $300 for a sedan to have all 4 side windows, rear window and strip across the windshield.

    Recently, I called Z-Tech Naperville to get a quote for my double cab tacoma and I nearly fell out of my seat.

    I asked for a quote for 3M crystalline ceramic film. The whole front windshield (70% for heat only), all 4 side windows and the rear 3 section window. They want near $1,000!!! :eek:

    Are they out of their minds with asking $1,000 or is this the going rate for 3M crystalline?

    Needless to say, I'm looking for recommendations in the area to get more quotes :hattip:

    I’ll give them a call :thumbsup:

    I’ve managed to get Ztech down to $750+tax by doing the crystalline on the windshield and the IR (still ceramic) on the sides and rear. Still kind of pricey (I think) but better than $1k for all crystalline.
