    There's a place on Fenn St. in Pittsfield that tinted my Outback when I had it...Street Legal Customs. $150 out the door, it held up great, and one of the owners invited me to hang out in the garage while she worked on it. Good people, took their time to get it right. I know they get a some dealers selling used that will send vehicles there for tint before they resell them.

    Thanks for the rec.
    That's funny. I went here not long after I posted this. I was at the PO across the street, saw their hand painted sign and went over to talk with them.
    Was just kinda feeling out the options then when I asked how long it would take, he said 30 minutes, I said "let's do it"
    Came out great. $60.
    Thought that was very fair.
    Liked their little shop. Want to give them more of my business.

    Can't argue with their pricing. $150 for 5 windows was great. Seems like they must basically charge $30/window if you paid $60 for (I'm assuming) the front two.

    My truck just has the factory privacy glass in the rear right now, but soon I need to take it down there and have them put 35% on the front two.

    When my Outback was totaled, insurance listed "Privacy Glass" on the appraisal and it actually added more value to the vehicle than I originally paid for the tint!

    Yeah, I did the front two to the LL. I figured I wouldn't push going over and have to peel it all off. Wish I could have gone 20% like the back.

    Wow, that is crazy about the appraisal. Was good for you. I am sure the accident wasn't though.
