That's a good price. I'd pay max $180AUD where I am for 35% tints. Costs more for darker.

I got my HB tinted at a Swap Shop 20% all around (nothing at the windshield though) for $75. Not the best quality ever, but all in all, I'm happy with the results.

There's really only one place where I live that does a good enough job tinting and they want like $220 for the darkest 3M tint. Price includes the little strip on the windshield.

I just got my tint done less than a week ago. 35% is the darkest you can go on driver and passanger in Texas. All the other windows you can go as dark as you want. I got 5% visible on the rest. You can't even see through it. Looks good with the black body color. I paid $180 with a 3yr warranty. It was an extra $20 for the 5%. As far as I've been told 3M tint is pretty shitty. Although everything else they make works pretty good.

Just depends on the quality I guess. If you can watch them do it and the procedure. Make sure they put the tint on the inside. People have no problem rippin you off.
