I got 35% here in NC. 3M film and it cost $90 for just the front two. The hardtop already had factory tint.

Would you happen to know the name or brand of film? My local shop can only go as high as 50%, I feel that may be a bit dark for me. I just need something to cut down on glare. My afternoon commute home is brutal on sunny days. I'm also not a fan of tinting only a portion of the front windshield.

Thanks,

Marty

That is what I'm trying to avoid. Clear polarized or 90% polarized film would be ideal. Your tint looks cool though!

Lol well it's not my shop and I don't have control of the prices but it sells, cheapest I've sold it has been 200 but my customer had to pay for 2 cars in advance, but ended up bringing me a total of 5 cars. But yeah not in my control
