Window Tinting Prices

Prices...

This is a hard subject to explain!

The price for a car tint can vary dramatically from the cheapest fly-by-night shop from $50 to the luxury tint shop's $400 or more. For each of these situations, the price can be considered REASONABLE.
What a REASONABLE price is depends on many factors:

Your Car Type

Quite simply, a small percentage of cars are harder to tint than others. When getting a price quote, a Tint Shop always asks you for the make and model of your car. This isn't to see how much money you have and charge you up the wazoo. (Often it is with less reputable tinters)
Tinters know which cars take more time to tint properly. Some cars with steep and curved rear windows like the Volkswagen Beetle or Corvette, tinters often charge a premium to tint. Additionally, each additional square foot of window on your vehicle requires more window film to tint. This makes tinting a SUV or station wagons cost more than sedans.

Type of Tinting Film

Just like comparing a Kia to a Mercedes, there is wide performance and cost differences in window film. The cheapest tinting film can be many times less in price than the most expensive film, but you get what you pay for.
Cheap film may look good at the beginning, but they can fail to block the summer heat, fade, turn purple, or bubble soon after installation. Higher quality window film such as Ceramic, Carbon, Hybrid, Hi performance sputtered window films offer both advanced performance and a lifetime warranty. These films are worth the higher price.

Performance Warranty

You are highly encouraged to ask about the Performance Warranty before you pay for tinting services from anybody. Typically these Warranties' can last from as little as 1  to 3 months, 1 year up to lifetime.

Not all Warranties are created equal!
Most warranties only cover problems such as cracking, glazing, bubbling, and peeling. Some films carry a "Color-Safe Warranty" that gives you peace of mind that if the color of your tint ever changes, it will be replaced.

South Florida Mobile Works offers different types up to a "no fault” warranty. Please ask the sales associate for details.

Be Careful!

Irresponsible tint installers can also offer "Lifetime Warranties"
You should always factor in this when buying low priced car tint.
