Tint and a MS3...

I got 30% in front and 20 rear for $200. My dealer (who outsourced to the same exact guy I used) tried to charge $320 when I bought the car. Told him to scratch. $230 at the dealer is pretty good, but I'd pay cash for that part.
 
Exactly. That looks like mine for sure. I haven't a problem with the windshield banner, but to each their own. On mine, because it has that reflective look like fragchild's, I think the banner is nice. Frag, it looks like this is the 18% or so, right? Mine is the 35%, and the difference is staggering (and a little saddening, since your look was the one I was going for as opposed to mine.)

Sorry I didn't see this thread earlier. Llumar is awesome tint. This is the Wifey's car with the platinum plus at the Florida legal limit.

We bought both the same day and she was upside down in her last car so it just wasn't feasible. She drives my car every chance she gets, and anything I do to mine I have to do to hers, short shifter,sri, motor mounts,etc

Fourthmeal,
Yeah ours are 18% rear and 35% front.

We both have the windshield strip and don't have any problems with it not adhering to the black dots. The guy I go to here in Florida has done my last 6 cars and has been doing tint since the late 80's so he's the man when it comes to the detailed stuff like that.

I wanted him to do the clear bra thing too but that's stuff is damn expensive. He wanted $618 per car
 
they guy that does mine doesnt have a blade on anything but the edge of the glass ya just trim the excess by the outside shape as the edge as a guide....i had my last car done twice ..danm cops...and never had a mark
 
Looks good mspro, but where I live that would get me pulled over, then fined, then made to remove it. But limo does rock.

I can get pulled over too!...lol. I don't have pics of my sister's old car...but she had a Mazda3 05 and she had the darkest legal tint this guy had and it was awesome! It was only a little bit more then mine and he gave me a recipt with it and everything. Dealerships always have the lightest tint. I would go to a private company and tell them you want the darkest legally possible...
 
I didn't go with the dealer tint... $230
I went with a referral from a friend...$130

I'm happy with mine, though its light... 30% (legal darkest in my area)
I have exactly what I wanted...though this is the first car I have ever tinted... lol

What is nighttime visibility with your Limo tint MSPRO19...?
Do you see anything at night through your tint...?

I can see through it...the only thing I have to really watch is backing up with my mirrors. If I just glance around I'm fine, but yes it is hard to see when there is no lights around...lol
 
MSPRO19- Lovin' it. Sick looking black car. Now you can get the Black Out kit and you'll almost be invisible at night. lol

Thanks! I'm really happy with the way the car has turned out so far. I don't think I'll get the black out kit though. I added the emblems on the side because it looks too plain to me, and I like advertising that it's a Mazda...lol.
 
Hey guys,

Has anyone heard of Luminar Tint...? Is it good?
Also, I was quoted at my dealership to tint all my windows (except windshield since I think it looks weird to have that bar tint) with Luminar Tint in a Carbon version 25% 35% for $230...

Is this expensive for the Central Florida region...?

Thanks for the help...


Llumar's a good brand. I had 20% allthe way around on my 07 Si. I just put Formula 1 tint on my MS3 at 25% all the way around. Paid 200 to have it done at tintking in South Florida.
 
FYI just looked up FL's tint limits.

28% front
15% rear

making my appt soon, maybe next weekend. gonna call the dealer to see if they flip-flop quotes on me (i was told $150 by my salesman), i bet they say higher when i call.
