katalyst Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Just because you haven't seen anyone being pulled over in an escalade doesn't mean they don't do it. On my evo I had exactly 35% I have been checked twice and even contested it once when I was pulled over. Sucks.. so I'm going to err on the slightly lighter side and not even going to bother going darker than the limit. dang, that sucks. well if anyone wants to compare, i'm in the boston area and i have 35%, who has a 40% go vs. against? $250 does sound a little steep, i paid 160ish if i recall and yea it took about 1-2 hrs, but i had it done in maryland where i was living at the time.

mrjk77 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 i wanna see your 35%. is that on top of the factory tint...so it's really like ~30%? have you had any troubles with the staties and/or local police? yeah it should only take about an hour to do. an obp mini meet for tint sounds good to me.

rice_rocket Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Okay I got an initial quote for 3 or more of us from the shop that did a few of my cars in the past here in Natick. $225 a car for the 5 windows and a tint strip. Using Suntek window films and lifetime guarantee. I emailed him back asking if we get 5 or more etc if he can drive it a few bucks lower Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pikers Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I didn't mean a day per car, I meant he reserves a day for all of us to bring down our cars to get worked on. Again, if he agrees I could create a signup sheet with time blocked out for each car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LGTLW Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 I did 40 on front two windows and 35 on the rest. Took an hour twenty over at Mr Tint in W. Springfield MA. Only ran me $120 and the results were great. (dont say this post is worthless without pics...pretty sure I have them in my profile, if not, they will be shortly) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrjk77 Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 well, pikers got a lower quote for the same tint? well pikers and rice_rocket...you guys figure it out and let us all know. maybe this is better on a new thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rice_rocket Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Seeing as it's the same tint I think Pikers has it at $180 if it can even go lower.. I am seeing if the price can be matched/beat Wonder how much warmer we should wait, with all this cold weather the tint will take forever to "dry".
