Cool Tinted Windows

I'm looking for a place that will tint the front windows on my car.

I'm not looking for the cheapest place; rather, the place that will do the most professional job.

Thanks, in advance.... Mike

Be familiar with Florida law on vehicle window tinting for the two front windows and windshield. If too dark you can be cited for illegal window tinting and it does reduce your vision at night!

Mike, you might also look into the TYPE of tint you get.
They have a newer, better tint now that is a ceramic tint. This is what I am planning on getting soon, once we move down there for good.

The 3M tint place, just south of 466 on 27/441 has a legal tint for windshields, that filters rays.

If you google it, there are numerous sites that list the legal tint %'s for each state. It will show what's legal for rear and side windows as well as front windshields.

Here in IL, for example, you can only have a 6" strip of 35% tint across the top of the front windshield. My guess is that it's different in FL. Each state has their own laws.

I believe most newer cars come with standard window tint. If you need more, it would be less expensive and bothersome to just wear sun glasses.

Just had the 3m place on 441 do my front windows and the strip on the windshield. Buisness name is Underglass. Had them use the best tint.
$60 per each window and $30 for the windshield. They do it while you wait.
