Hey guys, just an update. I decided to go with Rich's Tint Shoppe. I booked an appointment for next week. He's all booked up until then. I'll post pictures after the install.

I had a LX570 done at Song's with ceramic tint. Cost north of $500. I don't think OP is in that price range.

Got the GT-R tinted 5% all the way around (Except for the windshield), and when I look at the window, I can barely see where the edge of the tint ends, the cut is soo precise! I plan on taking the BRZ there as soon as I get it. They also have these badass ceramic tints too, that dissipate heat better too if anybody knows anything about those.


Here's a few shots of the car after the tint to compare 5% (Shot with iPhone):
I just went to these guys, 5% rear 3 and 35% front two and I'm pretty satisfied.
There seems to be some kinda scratches on the tints for the driver's window though .. I'll call them in tomorrow.
They said it'd be 2 hours but it took them 3 hours :/
As long as that scratch thing isn't a big deal I'm pretty happy with how it turned out!
Now to wait for it to cure and dry
Was $205 for their cheapest option for 5 windows .. meh
