Default Window Tinting

Seems that my move to Florida has resulted in the need to tint my Boxster's windows.

I'm looking at ceramic films, so as not to interfere with my cell phone and GPS, and so far the local tint stores have suggested Global Window Films CDP and Llumar CTX. The specs on the Global are a bit better and it costs less, $189 for the two side and the rear window; the LLumar is $215. I'm sure if I go to a third store I'd get another recommendation - they each seem to have a "prime" vendor.

Any recommendations as to which manufacturer to choose, or is there another I should look into?

TIA,

Ed

I have the folding Porsche one. They came with colored crest or non colored. This fits perfect. Takes a little longer to put it but it fits the window about as perfectly as it could. Worth it. Could be worth having the 2 circle wire frame begin for quickie in and outs.

XPEL XR Prime is excellent. Expect to pay quite a bit more but it's top notch.

Llumar has been around for a long time and I had it on an old Boxster S in 2008; however, I have been using 3M film since on all of my P-cars and others and it looks and works fine, for much less than the others.
