I'm up near Plano/Frisco/Carrollton and can't find a place to tint a truck for less than $350-500. This is the four windows plus back glass.

Two questions…
-Is this the going rate for tint these days?
-Do you have any shop recommendations?

Been years, but used the Alta Mere at Plano Parkway and Coit with success. Seems like that was the price point back then, so may be a lot more now.

Alta Mere was one of the places I called. I used them years ago on another car.

Earmark. $500 sounds about right depending on the tint you choose.

Not something I would cheap out on, in my experience tint is something where you get what you pay for. Especially if you keep the vehicle long-term.

ProTint in Plano. Have used them on probably 5-6(?) cars since 2005.

I've used Aggie owned Allen Turbo Tint twice. They look to be cheaper than the other quotes you've gotten. The last time, my daughter took her car in, and they found out that she was starting at A&M, and gave her free tint removal!

Earmark in Plano... Independence and Parker. Formula one brand tint (lifetime warranty that they honored on my 2001 auto I still drive) is the way to go.

Prestige tint in Princeton.

Husband/wife duo that do everything. Well priced. I want to say we did my wife's SUV on ALL windows with ceramic tint and it was $500

My truck was… $250?

They also do chrome delete and wheel painting.

Alta Mere is the winner out of the bunch posted here. They all have various levels but Alta Mere is the most cost effective for the following…

Four windows + back glass

Solution 2 Full Car-Xpel XR Black- Blocks 85% IR Heat
XPEL XR Black - $370
Includes the windows on both sides and rear glass.
Extreme Performance, Exceptional Quality

Solution 3 Full Car- Xpel XR Plus- Blocks 96% IR Heat
XPEL XR Plus - $500
Includes the windows on both sides and rear glass.
The Pinnacle Of High Performance Tint. Period.
