I called HB Tint Pros and quoted me $479 for formula one pinnacle tints. I also called Perfect Window Tint and quoted me $475 for Huper Optik tints.

Can someone direct me to a shop who can give me a better deal? I know people have gotten theirs tinted for as low as $350 for all 4 windows and rear windshield. Thanks!


UPDATE: I called Astro Eclipse and quoted me $355 for the Formula One Pinnacle tints. An FYI for those in SoCal who's looking into getting tints for their beloved E60!

I have just the place for you. Go to this place and talk to Jim (the owner) or Alex (she's the receptionist) and set up an appointment. It's $355 for the F1 Pinnacle series tint for all 5 windows. i got all 6 (windshield) for $530. i went with 50% front windshield, 35% sides, and 15% rear window and it's perfect. Tell him Danny with the black 5 Series sent you. Here is their contact info:

I paid $320 for Llumar ceramic. $355 sounds like a greatprice.. but $475

I'm not sure if Llumar tints are shit or not.. but they sold it to me pretty good.. lol

I've heard good things about Llumar. What % did you go?

NP, i had the same problem when i was searching for the right tint place in So Cal. everyone wanted $400-$500. Then i found these guys and they do a good job, plus Jim and Alex are very cool. Please post pictures of your car when you're done.

They will give you a tag in your door jam, and paper work certifying everything, so don't worry. it's legit.

Got it done over the weekend and went 35% all around. It's lookin' pretty good and their work is impressive. I highly recommend this place for their great price and service! BTW, the LIFETIME WARRANTY is a PLUS and justifies the price IMO.

Now, i'm thinking if i should get the front windshield done w/ 50% tints. What you guys think?

I'm glad you liked that place. I have my front windshield done and I like it. It cuts with glare a lot during the day so I don't really have to wear sunglasses but at night some passengers have said that the window looks blurry but It looks normal to me.

Someone posted on another thread saying that if you get into an accident and they see you have your front windshield tinted and its not your fault you will get in trouble.

So those might be somethings you would want to consider but I personally like it and would do it to all my future cars.

thanks for the tip!

15% all around. I had 5% for a while which was just ridiculous. So 15 is perfect for me.
