BTW nice choice on the color of the Z

It ran me $205 total, it too them about an hour and a half. They Do tape down the dor sensor and tint under the rear light one of the things I was looking for. These pics are right after I got home from the shop. In a week or two I will post follow up pictures close up ones once it dries.

They don't tape it down, some poor sap gets to sit and hold the button, lol. I had mine done there a week ago.

That neighborhood looks suspiciously familiar. Scofield Farms? If so, I've got the black touring that was entering those apartments as you were most likely going to work one morning.

HOLLY SH*T! $200. In Florida for the Z easily $100 plus tax.

FranklinZ, South Point Nissan in Austin will do MSRP or lower. I got mine for a tiny bit less than MSRP, but I also got them to swing $1500 more on my trade in. We all know it comes off the trade or the MSRP, so the way I saw it I got a good deal.

350zwannabe. First, mine was $170 from the same place, and that was for one of the highest quality films they have there. I didn't want the quantum film because I wanted the most black (not dark) tint possible, and the quantum has a slight mirror effect to it. Quantum just isn't good for a black car I don't think. Anyhow, this shop does a quality job and uses good film. I'm sure we could get our cars tinted in Austin for real close to $100, but I would prefer quality personally, of both materials and installation. Also, Florida is a lot like California. I'm sure tint is really big there. Even though it gets plenty hot in Texas, tint doesn't seem to be near as popular as some other places.

I have only had it a day and a half and almost all the bubbles are already gone. The car does sit in the sun all day at work so I'm sure the sun today help a ton. It should be good by this weekend.
