Thanks. Ive always run the same tint on all my cars. Since this is my 6th one in 6 years my guy gave me a hook up. That being said, most places around me charge around $180-200 for full tint.

Wow, this is really making me re-think about using Huber Optik Ceramic 20% full tint for $695

My place was offering llumar Ceramic also for only $380 but I couldnt justify it. $695 for tint is highway robbery. Im sorry, thats mod money for me that could be going elsewhere. The only thing ceramic does is reduce the amount of heat in the car compared to regular tint. Like I said, Ive been using the same tint for over a decade and the interior of my car never gets too hot. I would rethink that if I were you. But Im not, so you do what you think is best.

Just think though, you're halfway to exhaust or almost a full tune with the money you'll save by going regular tint.

I'm starting to think your right. That is A LOT of money. I'll look into other brands with Ceramic film.

Anyone here use Prestige Ceraluxe Ceramic film? Was quoted $450 for that. $260 less than what I would have spent on the Huber Optik film.

As noted by SYMAWD, the ceramic is way over-priced for what you need. A mid-level carbon film works just fine for heat and UV. $300 out the door at a highly reputable installer. I have a black on black vehicle, and went with the 35% (legal limit). Looks superb, and appears much darker with the black interior, especially with the moonroof slider closed.
