Not sure of the price, but do it all at once, that is what I would do.

...go ahead and do the whole thing...

You mean do the whole windshield? I'd get just a "brow" if anything at all, but that's just me. I've got 35% on the front two, and 20% on top of the factory "Solar-Ray deep-tinted glass", for a net of like 4-5% all around the back. Virginia is pretty strict on tint, and I can get ticketed if I go any darker on the front two, and it's totally illegal to tint the front...

i got a couple quotes yesterday for tint and it was from 199-250 for the whole car and about 80 for the dvr and psngr windows and 25 for the windshield brow......for those of you that only have the front 2 done is it dark enough or would it be best to do the entire car.....my only thing is that it has to match....

Can't remember how much I paid but I just wanted matching tint to the back windows and it is as close as it's going to get. I also went with a strip across the front windshield.

That price seems reasonable. I did the whole vehicle as the factory tint does NOT filter all UV -- just visible light -- according to my brother in law who runs a tint shop locally. He tinted my truck as I mentioned above, and it looks fine IMO, even though the front is not nearly as dark as the back. He used some new non-metallic non-ceramic carbon type film on mine, and it looks really nice (i.e. not reflective). If you want it to match, you'd do well to check your local and state tint laws so you don't get ticketed (repeatedly, and they'll do that too until you take it off), or fail any safety inspection you might have to have... For me, the 35% on the front is illegal (50% max here in VA on front sides), so I'll still have to be somewhat careful at inspection time. The FOP emblem on my vehicle helps though...
