I'm going to use Xpert tint at BW 8 And 59 for tint and clear bra. Good review for this place at other forums.
Where do you get your 3M install?

I used Star Auto Truck Tinting on 59 and Chimney Rock for my 3M 20%. They did a great job.

Russell at Xpert wanted $600 for the clear bra. I dont know which brand(wasnt 3m) but it came with a 5year warranty. He wanted $250 for tint.

Steve @ Invisishield wants $500 for 3m clear bra and $140 for 3m tint.

What is the normal price for tinting windows?

It was $250. They will take their time with you and answer any and all questions you have. They will take a sample outside and put it on your car to give you an idea of what it looks like if you are not sure what type of tint to get. They will put in one of their DVD's for you to watch while you wait. Best of all they will do a quality install. Just be sure to go on a weekday to get the best service.
