Paid about $700 all around inc. sunroof, and windscreen. Huper Optik tend to be more expensive than others. Other choices include Llumar, FormulaOne and 3M. Try to go with "ceramic" as they tend to be more durable than traditional dyed or metallic tints.

Yeah. Huper Optik is pretty expensive. They charged me $600 for all around (front & rear) + sunroof. I could have gone with 3M carbon for half the price, but wanted to try Huper for the heat reduction (this based on the recommendation of my regular tint guy who doesn't do Huper Optiks)

** Still waiting for my car back to get pics up **

I had this done to my 08 X5 4.8i with the panoramix sunroof. IT'S AN AMAZING DIFFERENCE IN GLARE AND HEAT CONTROL. My 3-yr old osn used to complain about the glare in the back seat, but not a whimper since I had this done.

Just tinted front & rear windows for my 08 BMW X5 last weekend. It looks cool, and keeps warm inside. The price is $555 includes tax and lifetime warranty. The ceramic film is GOOD!!!!

And you get that "rainbow" effect that you can see on the window at a certain angle when you use ceramic. It's kind of a cool looking too!
