Advise on Tint..Is this a good price?

I am looking to tint my windows. I went to tintmaster today and he said it would cost $230, all around for all 5 windows for 35%. I've read some other threads about it costing $150 or so, but didn't specify whether is was all around or not. This guy offers the lifetime warranty and has no problem removing the tint on the front windows if a cop happens to give me a fix it ticket for them. He uses 3M, if that matters. Thanks for your input ahead of time.

$230 for five windows is a good price IMO.

I was offered about $150 for either Madico or Llumar so it sounds a little high. Lifetime warranty!

$230 is way over priced (at least for the SoCal area)

For $175-200 you can go all the way around with SolarGard Quantum and have them file it to the edge.

$120 @ 5% tint on my G35 Coupe 5 window's, 1 Sunroof, 1 Strip on Front windshield. Not one problem for a year and 1 month on my 04 R.I.P., and now on my 05 with no problems.

Not a hook up either. Used to have one and that only cost me $90, back in the day though.
