Chicagoland Window Tinting

hammerhd74 · 02-15-2014, 12:12 AM

Got quoted $370 to 35% tint my new 2011 335d from a highly rated window tint company in the Chicago burbs per users here and Yelp.

Is this a good price?

What have others here paid in Chicagoland to tint their E90 LCI's?

That's not bad. I had my E93 done for $250 at Sunset in Woodridge. He's done a couple cars for us and does great work.

I pay 100 flat for coupe or sedan but to a normal costumer hes 120 coupe and 140 sedan. Message me for his number. Hes done over 100 people I know personally with their vehicles done and does clublexus members and many more.

He has a business and you must go to him. I've had his tints for over 10 years and still on point and does have warranty for life.

He will not do front windshield.

God damn you guys are paying so much money! Hes not by appointment first come first serve.

I went to Umbra with a friend and they knocked off $20 each. I believe I paid $200 for 35% all around on my e92, and he paid $240 for his A6.

$370 is too much.

ken1137 · 02-15-2014, 10:15 PM

Umbra is always too F'ing busy.

I paid $238 (price with tax) for 35% all around on e92.

Thanks all. You give me options to consider

gary88 · 02-17-2014, 06:28 PM

I'd wait for Umbra, really good work and Nino gives a discount if you pay cash. I had 35% ceramic done for $300, lifetime warranty.

Hokie_BMW · 02-17-2014, 06:32 PM

I had my 15% done for $200. Metallic though.

hammerhd74 · 02-19-2014, 10:54 PM

I went with Greg @ Quality Window Tinting in Warrenville, IL. So far so good. True test will come with the warmer weather.

Went to Markus based on your referral. Awesome job, and 3M tint. Very nice guy too.

Umbra has done two of my cars prior to this. I felt they were getting a little pricey, so I gave him a shot instead.

Thanks!

here in indiana I'm getting 20% for 150

cburn · 03-11-2014, 11:18 AM

They did a shit job. I'm going back to see about getting my money back or them fixing it. But I'd rather just get my money and have it done somewhere else.

Been 2 years now since I've gotten my 35% sides, 20% back, and 50% windshield from Greg and all are holding up fantastic. Got all of it done for a good price, can't remember exactly now though, been too long. Well under $300 that's for sure.

hammerhd74 · 04-03-2014, 08:45 PM

So far so good with Quality Window Tinting's work

Yea I paid like 260 for 20% all around for my coupe.

Pyrat 2 · 04-12-2014, 05:12 PM

+1 for umbra. He has done 4 of my cars over the last 9 years.

Regardless of who you go to make sure you aren't just shopping on price. The quality of the film is very important. It's not all the same. Do your homework and decide.

Umbra, did mine. Awesome work.
