Huper Optik Window Tint Pricing

I've been quoted $499 for sides and rear for tint with Huper Optik - arguably the best tint available ha ha, not to start an argument. I've had it on my last car, it was great and I'm mostly set on getting it again but it was already installed so I didn't have to pay for it. They'll provide a lifetime warranty that covers everything, including scratching (yay). I've heard it's one of the harder tints to apply because it's so thick. Also, I'll be moving to SC next year so heat rejection is important too. It seems high to me but I think window tinting in the Seattle area is high as is anyway. What do you guys think?

I paid $175 for sides and back, but it wasnt huper whatthefOptik. If you have the extra cash to spend its definitely worth it!

you can get a cheaper tint, but then it's just that. I paid a little less for a nice ceramic tint on my 200SX a decade ago. If going with the quality is worth it to you, then do it.

Remember with Ceramic tint like Huper Optic and 3m Crystalline, you have to tint every surface on the car for it to work.

Windshield, Rear Windshield, Sunroof, etc.
If you are just doing the side windows, you are wasting your time and money.

Seems about right, if I had the cash I'd do it. I was quoted ~550.

I didn't think of that - logically anyway. Thanks

the price is about right. like others said, you need to do every window - including sunroof if you have it, and the front windshield, which can potentially run you to about $700. 3m Crystalline is a little cheaper, and it's what i have on another car. it may be expensive, but you do get what you paid for.
