Window Tint Question

I'll just leave this here.

 

Good lord. I'm in the wrong line of work. I bought precut ceramic tint and did mine myself for $127.

How about 30?

 

Crazy man lol. Bet truck cools in less than a minute though in the summer.

 

Someone posted a while back that had 5% on the windshield.

 

Or, 20? Lol

 

That was me lol

 

What brand of film? I doubt it's truly ceramic.

But yes, you can make a lot of money in window tinting, but it's not an easy job. Takes a while to master the craft.

 

True ceramic is only made by a couple companies. Huper being one.

 

How did you get away with tinting the front side windows, I thought we in CA couldn't do that and that shops wouldn't do it either

 

Don't know, but there ain't no brand on the planet I'd pay $500 for. If I need to redo it in a couple years, oh well.... Tinting can be complex, but not a Tacoma. None of the windows have compound curves. A chimp could do it. Cutting the tint is the hardest part.

 

A true ceramic is much harder to install because it is thicker. It requires more labor to install and the material itself is much more expensive.

 

You guys are hilarious. Moan and cry about high price of having tint done then get butthurt and defensive when someone gets a better deal.

 

Shops will do it. They just let you know that it's not legal. I even got my front windshield tinted.

 

Who’s butt hurt. I have money to spend.

 

thanks I'll ask around

 

Indiana shops can lose their license for tinting windshields. I doubt you could find one to do it.

 

Send me a little then. Like to buy a cheap $224.00 tonneau cover for my truck.

 

all of this is false except that the material is more expensive. ceramic film installs the same as cheap ass dyed film does. it shrinks the same as well. now, if someone doesn't know what they are doing, they may have a harder time with it, but the process is exactly the same.

 

wow, that does seem expensive, especially since that doesn't include the front doors. I would keep shopping around. I wish we could get those prices in our shop though, maybe I could get some commission from the boss man with prices like that, lol.
