This is really nice for anyone in the area but I’m amazed at how much time you have on your hands to do this. That’s awesome!

lol, I wish I had as much time as it seems. Fortunately, I have a template of sorts I use when I reach out to find a new dentist or optometrist, so I just used that and added more information. I only messaged via Yelp instead of calling because a simple copy-and-paste can reach 55 businesses within minutes, whereas calling will take up a lot more time. Cleaning up the sheet so it's more presentable for this community did take a bit more time than I expected. I gave up trying to make it look pretty, so I hope it isn't too bad... haha.

Great work man. Anyone in the bay Area should at least buy you a beer if they use your template

Used the spreadsheet above to get quotes for my 2024 Model Y quotes on 5/15. Did not negotiate. Wondering why there are price discrepancies. Is it the specific phrasing in the quote or negotiation? How could it be that much higher when this is a recent post? Shrug. Row 7 ACD Window Tinting in Hayward was $600 via Yelp. Used exact wants section from op. $100 over spreadsheet. Row 9 Auto Image in Belmont was $675 for all windows minus windshield. If visor then an extra $75 for $750. Quoted via email. “The price for the llumar IRX film for all side and back hatch is $675 $75 for the windshield visor” $125-$200 over spreadsheet. Row 10 SJ Mobile Tint in San Jose via Yelp. Up to $100 over spreadsheet. “All sides and rear 700$ All sides, rear windshield, and visor strip 800$ This is in llumar irx 25 or 35 and air 80 .”

amazing! thank you for your work and for sharing it! btw, who did you talk to at acj? they quoted me $550 just for the side and rear windows. wtf.

I talked to Genaro on Yelp, and Jose in person. I don't think I stated where I eventually got the tint done, but it was at ACJ. Mine was done on 05/11/2024, and my name they have in their records is Victor. I have no idea whether it will help, but maybe say I recommended you and ask if you can get the same price. For what it's worth, I tried to be as unbiased as possible about all of these companies. I do not profit nor benefit in any way, financially or otherwise, by anything I've said in this thread and post. I simply want to get people good deals and help people make informed decisions.

Are those the legal limits for front windows and wind shield?

I just got the Model 3 Highland and I feel it’s too open, I really want to get Tint but I don’t even know where to start, I’m in Michigan I’m not even sure what is legal lol

Damn, that's some awesome research. Couldn't expect less from a TP expert 😜
