don't you think that place is somewhat expensive?

Quality material and workmanship. Were you looking for ceramic or metallic? Also what grade of film? A lot of those cheaper priced places will give you the crappy 2 year film... maybe 5 year. You don't want any yellowing, pealing, or cracking. IMO, mercedes deserves the 15 year metallics.

plus you can probably work out a cash deal discount with them like I did for my clear bra.

Don't forget bubbling I hate that. And I agree 100% use the best that they offer.

i think metallic is fine for me. Thanks, I'm already trying to work things out with them through email. You guys think 35 all around is good?

35% for the fronts is pretty common.

Do you get hassles from cops with limo tint on the 2 front windows?

Actually, I went a slightly lighter than limo for the front two...about 20% but still rather dark. Haven't had any issues with cops yet. They've pulled up right next to me and didn't even bat an eye.
