BurntOC

Thanks.  Got the Wincos 30 and I'm very, very happy with it.

Thanks, fellas.  No idea why I haven't been getting notifications of new posts even though I set that up, but I'm glad I checked back here   I don't wan't green or blue for sure!  That being the case, I see Madico Wincos - doesn't that have a rep for being blueish?  Maybe not at 35?

Hey all, so I just got my black Model S two weeks ago and of course it's been near 100 degrees more often than not ever since. I really want to tint the sides and rear, and maybe later I'll do the roof and windshield. I value heat rejection and keeping the color close to black/non-reflective so I'm HEAVILY leaning towards a 30-35% ceramic tint. I don't want to, and couldn't anyway, spend a lot, so after doing a lot of research it seemed like the options that best fit my criteria are:

autobahn Black Ceramic 30
Rayno Phantom S9-30
Llumar CTX 30
Suntek CIR 30
Formula1 Pinnacle 30

If price were no obstacle I'd probably go with the Pinnacle, but the best price I've gotten is about $500 and when I compare that to my best CIR quote of 350 I'm leaning towards the CIR. I can get CTX or the autobahn Black Ceramic for about the same price as the CIR, but they either don't perform as well (CTX) or I can't validate their claims (especially as it relates to IR rejection). 

So the TLR is I'd like to pull the trigger on this ASAP, so if anyone knows of a better deal on the CIR or one of the films that performs better and has some presence to back it up, please point me in the right direction. I live in south OC so closer to there is better than farther, but I could possibly do a drive for a good deal as I drive a fair amount for my job.
