DubIR is $220 higher than CTX for a 40" roll and $330 higher than CTX for a 60" roll.
How does CTX compair price wise to CS?

Everyone has told me that. Idk maybe I've day I'll get one but I guess I'm just accustomed to hand tools.
Lower risk of breaking shit with hand tools

If you're going to see a large volume of them than that's a good investment!

Ok, I've done a few of these now and have to say on the whole they are pretty easy. On the hatch I don't bother to disassemble to pull the spoiler I just tack with a horizontal line instead of an H-pattern and bump the film down so I can shrink the top first, then bump up to shrink the bottom. Granted that's using a plotter cut pattern, if you're hand cutting you'll need to remove the spoiler. The doors are cake other than the 1/4 windows which are worse up front than the rear. Remove the 7mm screw behind the handle then pull the top of the panel straight back and the sweep comes right out. On the 1/4s I recommend cutting your pattern exact, the seals are basically bonded to the glass on two sides, if you're using a plotter be prepared to trim your film. Access on the front 1/4 sucks due to the upper trim on the door, hasn't been enough of an issue for me to look into R&I-ing it though. @no ma'am here's the detailed shots you asked for.

yeah now they get quoted with R&I time for the back glass, haven't had to do one since
-
Haven't had any issues with the side door latch. As far as the back glass a Titan does a pretty good job if you don't have large hands, I've seen someone take an old bulldozer cut it and lengthen the handle of a new one to get it to reach. If you pull the deck you gain all the access you need but you have to tear out half the interior to do it and you have to be super careful not to knock the defroster tabs off or puncture a speaker...ask me how I know...

It is not that high, but too high IMO considering the brand name is not known, limited amount of dealers, and no history. You could actually pay a little more and get Huper Ceramic with the brand name recognition, quality, and reputation. 3M has an IR film coming out this year that I am sure will be less than that.
Really? That's the first I've heard of it, may have to talk to my rep, is it going to fill the gap between CS and CR?

I just contacted Dub IR to check pricing and hell no.
They trying to charge Crystaline prices?
-
not only that but think about trying to control contamination and the finished product that you'll then be displaying

That looks sharp, what vlt?

The obnoxious Corvette owner from that video the other day seemed awfully impressed with it
-
Ive only done one but I didn't bother pulling the spoiler, just have to go slow and watch your heat.
-
I've only done a couple of them that were accompanied by medical exemptions, don't care to make it a habit.

Sweet!
