Some guy quoted me $50, I hung up the phone. I don't want a ****** job. Someone told me that Suntek, Huper and 3M Crystalline are the best tints. I'm not sure how true this is. Any ideas?

A ton of shops near me have done the two fronts for $50. Most use solargard or llumar. The work on the four cars I've brought to one of the shops in particular was fine. Nothing to complain about especially for $50. Most of the 3m tint film is excessively expensive for no reason. I've been quoted at over $600 to tint my jeep...one question. Why? Go with the shops most used non-metallic film and be happy. Cheers!

I've paid $450 for tints before. They outlasted the car. Not a bubble or anything. I just don't want to cheap out and get something that I'm going to have to replace in a few years.

Fronts to match rear - $80 Canadian ($72 USD) from my buddy who has his own tint business, would've been $100 otherwise. And he uses good stuff. All my vehicles have been tinted by him, and never a blister or anything.
