I believe it was $295 for all 7 windows this was over a year ago so I would give him a call to see as prices could vary from car to car. 15% all around, he did an outstanding job.

Not one bubble or blemish anywhere.

I go to Canlas Mobile tint in Milpitas. Check out Rommel's (owner) reviews on Yelp. Awesome prices and really good work. Just does it out of his house, but I've done three cars there all with awesome results.

He does fantastic work but its also around 400$+ and he is usually pretty busy. I have had all my work done at preferred image in redwood city by the dmv. All 7 windows on my forester was 180$ they warranty it and I have not had a single issue with the tint. My wifes car was done by them too and three years later the tint still looks great. No fading, peeling, or bubbles.

I had my tint done by Professional Film Installations in Oakland. 20% rear, 35% front, and 20% upper windshield strip. A little under $300. Surly old white dude that smokes like a chimney but cranks out the job fast. He does most of the dealer tint installs in this area; BMW, MB, etc. Great job, no bubbles, to the edge of all the glass.

Full tint on my car was less than $300. I know a couple people who got tint from Vince over 10 years ago and they still look great.

I will admit that his time management does kinda suck and you gotta schedule an appointment way in advance.

Had two cars done with Vince @ Omega Tint. Just told the scoob, but the tint on there was perfect even after 10 years+ Highly recommend. But again call as soon as you know you want it or even considering it since he's usually backed up for 4-6 weeks. He even fixed a window with a smudge in the middle. You get what you pay for. Excellent service, but usually his time management isn't the greatest.
