i got mine free....
made them tint the car as part of the sale of the car - so you could say my tint cost many thousands of dollars! haha
no more than about 300 for tinting i would think, and 300 should get you what you want installed too inc ripoff factor too!

id pay around the $300 mark for tint with a lifetime warranty..
i wouldnt pay anything for tint with no (or limited warranty)..
i find you usually get what you pay for in regards to tint (or anything for that fact).. or at least if you pay a decent price you have the right to expect a decent job or get them to re-do it if it isnt up to your standards..

Ditto.

I agree I roughly looked into tinting my 1st gen before I got my licence suspended!
I really hate mental illness but hopefully I can be taught how to live with the prick of a thing!
I shall say no more about me in this thread!

If you take it to a well known tint shop it will cost anywhere between $260 - $300
As you want 3m it will most likely be closer to $300.
If you have an Instant Windscreens in your state, goto www.instantwin.com.au (http://www.instantwin.com.au) - call up a place local to you and get them to quote you a price. Then once youre happy with the price, download the $25 discount voucher and take that in with you. (dont mention the voucher until you go to pay)
Ive had several cars done through a local Instant Windscreens and they give all the relevant great service. Cheapest I got was $240 when I booked in 2 cars to be done at the same time.
dont to the metallic, get carbon, its much less susceptable to fading (and it allows much better RF and WiFi transfer) :D looks sexy too, tiny bit more expensive too, expect around $300 for whole car in 20%, and a bit less for 35% (legal).
I got 2 whole cars in 20% carbon, then replaced my rear 20% with 5% and had a silver graphic put on first, paid about $600 total
