The glass that cooks you.
Your windshield is the biggest piece of glass on the car and the one pointed straight at the sun. A clear or very light ceramic film across it is the single biggest drop in cabin heat you can buy. From $199.
Tint the sides, skip the windshield, stay hot.
People tint the doors and the back, drive off happy, and the car is still warm inside. That's because the windshield is bigger than any other window on the vehicle, it's laid back at an angle that catches the sun for most of the day, and it's the piece nobody thinks to cover.
Everything the windshield lets through lands on the dash, the wheel and your hands. That's the heat radiating back at you at a stoplight, the hot steering wheel in a parking lot, and the reason the air conditioning takes so long to catch up. It's also where a good share of the UV hitting you in the car comes from — and Utah has the highest melanoma rate in the country, which is a bad combination with a long commute.
- Blocks 99% of UV across the biggest window on the car
- Cooler dash, cooler wheel, air conditioning that catches up sooner
- Clear or very light film — almost nothing changes about the view
- Cut by computer for your exact windshield, around sensors and the mirror mount
- Same lifetime XPEL warranty as the rest of the car
Above the line.
Utah allows film on the windshield above the factory line near the top of the glass — the faint marking most windshields carry a few inches down from the roof. Everything we do up front is built around that line.
Where film is allowed
Film is allowed above that factory line near the top of the windshield. We'll point it out on your car before anything gets cut, so you can see exactly where it falls.
A full windshield film
A film across the whole windshield is a clear or very light film. We install it to the Utah limit — nothing that darkens your view of the road, just the heat and UV taken out.
Or just a sun strip
A visor band across the top instead of the whole glass. It lives entirely in the part Utah allows and it kills the low sun coming over the Wasatch on the drive home.
We install to the Utah limits as written. If you want something outside them, we'll tell you honestly rather than cut it and hand you a ticket. The rest of the state's rules — 43% of light through on the front sides, any darkness behind the driver — are laid out on the automotive tint page.
Windshield on its own.
These prices are for the windshield by itself, film and labour included. Most people add it to a full car instead — ask and we'll quote the pair together.
| Package | Color Stable | Hybrid Ceramic | Nano Ceramic |
|---|---|---|---|
| Windshield only | $199 | $249 | $349 |
Sun strip, sunroof, panoramic roof and old-film removal are quoted on request — they depend on the vehicle and the glass, so we price them when we see the car. Full-car pricing starts at $279 on the automotive tint page, and the two ceramic films are compared on the ceramic tint page.
One piece. No seams.
A windshield is the hardest piece of glass in the car to do well. It's big, it's curved in two directions, and there's nowhere to hide a mistake because you look through it every second you drive.
Cut by computer
Your exact year, make and model is loaded and the pattern is cut before the film goes near the car. No blade ever touches your glass.
Glass cleaned twice
Anything left on the glass shows up forever under a clear film, so the windshield gets cleaned, dried and checked in the light before we start.
Shaped to the curve
Flat film on a curved windshield has to be shaped with heat until it lies down without a single crease. This is the part that takes the years of practice.
Sensors worked around
Rain sensor, camera housing and mirror mount are all accounted for in the pattern, so nothing gets covered that shouldn't be.
Set and checked
Squeegeed out by hand, edges finished, then looked at from the driver's seat — because that's the only angle that matters.
Give it a few days to dry out. A little haze while the film settles is normal, and it clears on its own. In colder weather it takes longer.
While the car is here.
All quoted on request, because they depend on the vehicle and the glass. Ask when you book and we'll price it on the spot.
