not sure where you all may be, but in Cali, tinting the front driver/pass. windows are illegal(anything darker than 45% is a fix it ticket, last I was told). and thats about the normal prices a lot of shops here charge for all the windows.

Texas 35% up front is as dark as you can go and on the rear windows you can go as dark as you feel like.
If tinting the front windows is illegal and anything darker than 45% is illegal, why did you do it? And what shop would do that if it's breaking the law?

Rear = 10%
Quarters = 10%
Sides = 25%
Front = None
Price = $185.oo
I have co-worker who had (semi-illegal, see below) 5% done all the way around (except in the front) for $170.oo on his Celica GTS.
My state has this loop-hole in the law...
(e)(1) A motorist shall be exempt from this section if the motorist is diagnosed by a physician as having a disease or disorder, including, but not limited to, albinism or lupus, for which the physician determines it is in the best interest of the motorist to be exempt from the requirements of this section. The motorist shall carry in his or her motor vehicle a physician's certification.
My co-worker found a Doctor to write him a note.
You might want to check your state's laws to see if they too have a similar loop-hole.

So my guy that charged $150 and I can almost guarantee used the same tint as yours did charged me $70 less than you and if I ever have any problems with it at all I take it back to him and he fixes it for free. I'm sure yours does that too. So what's the difference? My guy is eating Micky D's and yours is eating steak.
And if you were the grandmaster of tinting, why wouldn't you tint your own windows? Wouldn't you want it to be done by the best?? That's what you paid $220 for supposedly.

People, I think we're forgetting a few things here as far tint pricing goes: 1. The brand/type/material of the tint used affects the price 2. Different areas in the country have different market rates for an install (not all business have the same overhead, ya know?)
something to ponder before everybody jumps on someone for supposedly "paying too much" -- before you make an assumption, try to take into account different factors and variables...
