Default Tinted Windows

Ok so i just wanted to see how much everyone was getting their tint for. I went to one place and they told me it would be 153 bucks for any shade of tint i wanted. Then i went to another place and the guy explained to me that on the new stangs he needed to put some type of felt (think thast what its called) on the inside of the windows so it wouldnt scratch the tint. So he said he would charge me 180 for all the windows and a additional 50 or 100 bucks depending on what type of felt i wanted(the high end one or the so so felt). so i just wanted to see what everyone else was getting it at and if i was getting ripped off or not.

my tint was 220 bucks without felt for the back 3 with 5% and the front 2 with 20%. Turned out really good, I could have gotten it for cheaper but this guy does great work.

Hmmm that's the first I heard about the felt. I don't have any scratches now but I will keep an eye on it.

Anyway, I got 20% all the way around for $160.

I paid $249 for my 35% tint and I don't have the felt but I've heard of several others that have experienced this issue. That being said, I'd spend the extra $$$ for the felt.
