Need tint in Boston area

Looking to get my windows tinted within the next few weeks. I've checked a few places they all want $200+ for two rolldowns, 2 quarter, and 1 rear window.

Any other reputable shops in the area a little cheaper than that?

Looking for..

15% rolldowns
5% quarters
5% rear.

Thanks.

Quality first!!!!! I have heard good things about Tint king (not sure where google it) and Xtreme Details (weymouth)... Make sure you get a quality tint and have it installed by a professional!!!!!! $$$$ is your friend... not saying spend too much just make sure its good it will make your life better in the end

I've got a guy that comes to my house to do the tinting. He uses Llumar. I've had him do 4 -5 cars. His work is near perfect.

There's supposed to be a very good shop 1 mile east of the intersection of Rt 24 and Rt 106. I don't have any direct experience, but my friend raves about his work.

Someone else here recommended a guy in Plainville on Rt 1A. I went to see the guy and couldn't physically find his location, so he is clearly well-hidden.

I think everyone is close to $200 today.

Unfortunetly, they dont do any % tint besides 35, because of the law. However, they did give me a base price of $175 which definitely seems worth it.

I gotta keep shopping around though, I really wanted 20% rolldowns and 5% quarter and rear.

EvenFlow....My son got a ticket for tint..lol...cost him 300.00..150 a window on the front roll downs.....he was on 495 south and a Statie rolled by him..his window was up...the Statie pulled him over..used the tint machine.. a light sorta thing my son said...and gave him the ticket...

alot of shops here will not do any dark tint..nothing less than 35%....they claim it is liability..

plus inspection time they check now...
