Window Tint

Ducc · Mar 3, 2022

Glad you bumped this thread. What did everyone pay for ceramic tint? My guy quoted me $599 for full cabin plus $249 for windshield.

Seems stupid expensive but I'm not in the know.

9 months later, how has it been driving at night with your darker windshields, 35%/50%?? Looks sharp, and I like the privacy, just not sure I will be able to see at night if I go that dark.

I can see fine. I live in a pretty dark area and with the stick headlights and fog lights I don’t have any issues. My windshield is 35% right now but doing down to 20% in a couple weeks when the shop can fit me in

Here is a screenshot of a quote I was emailed yesterday.

That sounds about right. I paid $900 for ceramic all around the truck including the windshield.

I just had Llumar CTX on both front doors and Air 80 on back doors, back window and also the windshield and pano, and a 5% brow. $670 OTD. Shoud help a lot with the heat!

I’m curious, for those that just got ceramic on the front driver and passenger windows, can you explain further? I thought a majority of the benefit of ceramic was UV and heat protection. Seems we would need to do all windshields to get full benefit, otherwise you should just get plain tint. Thoughts?

I was told the same thing when I did mine. They said if I was just doing ceramic in the front, it’d be a waste and to just do regular tint.

That said, if my commute had the sun shining through my driver window the whole time I’d still do it since it should help in that situation.

$300 for ceramic, 5% back 20-28% on side so forgot which one he said. Was thinking about doing the clear on windshield, I put it on my Tesla but can’t say if made big difference or not

I can tell a difference when the hot sun is beaming in from the side for extended period or sitting in traffic. With regular tint in other truck I definitely feel the heat. In my truck zero heat warming up my arm. It’s worth it to me in the TX heat

Looks great. What % did you grt on the two fronts to match the Air 80 on the rears?

NFARVW · Apr 24, 2022

LLumar IRX 5% front and 15% rears. I'll post before and after pics once it's done!

Anyone with experience with the clear ceramic? Can’t tint the front in NJ.

Had it on my Tesla, can’t say if it did anything or not but I had it put on anyway.

I had it on my last Raptor and now on my TRX. You really couldn't even tell it was on there but significantly reduced the heat coming through the windshield

That’s the piece I was curious about… it was noticeable even through the clear film… that’s great to know.
