Every vehicle we tint uses genuine HITEK film. Pick the tier that fits your budget and performance needs — pricing updates automatically in your instant estimate.
Tier 1

Carbon IR by HITEK
A carbon-infused film that blocks solar heat and won't fade, bubble, or turn purple over time — a durable, budget-friendly entry point.
Strong infrared heat rejection
Non-metallic — no signal interference
Fade-resistant matte black finish
Tier 2
Ceramic
Ceramic Pro Black by HITEK
Nano-ceramic particle technology delivers noticeably better heat rejection and optical clarity than carbon film, with a rich, true-black finish.
Higher heat & UV rejection than Carbon
Excellent clarity, no haze
Our most popular upgrade tier
Tier 3 — Top Tier
Nano-Ceramic
Ceramic Ultra by HITEK
Our best-performing film. Maximum heat and UV rejection with premium optical clarity — built for drivers who want the most out of their tint.
EV glass isn't like a normal car window. Tesla panoramic windshields, and the sweeping glass roofs and sunroofs on Rivian and Lucid, are oversized single panes that take specialized handling to tint cleanly — no creases, no gaps, no bubbles. It's one of our specialties, and we do it right here in the Austin area.
Tesla
Panoramic Windshields & Roofs
Full-length Tesla windshields and glass roofs tinted with heat-rejecting ceramic film for cooler cabins and less glare on long drives.
Rivian
Glass Roof & Sunroof
Precision-fit tint for Rivian's large glass roof panels — measured and installed to handle the oversized single-pane glass without compromise.
Lucid
Glass Canopy & Sunroof
Expert tinting for Lucid's expansive glass canopy and sunroof, keeping heat and UV out while preserving optical clarity.
Five films. One purpose: the right protection for your glass.
Home and business projects are priced by square footage, not by film type — so you can pick based on what your glass actually needs. Not every film is compatible with every window type — we'll confirm the right fit for your specific glass at your free in-person consultation.

Tint Darkness
Pick a shade for each area you're tinting.
Texas legal tint limits: front side windows must allow at least 25% VLT (30%, 50%, or 70% film). Back side windows and the rear window have no legal darkness minimum in Texas. The windshield is the most restricted glass on the vehicle, so G1 requires a valid medical exemption for any windshield film below 70% VLT (i.e. the 30% and 50% options). A medical exemption is a signed, current statement from a licensed physician or optometrist, kept in the vehicle. G1 requires your doctor's note on file before we begin any exemption-based install.

FAQ
Common questions, straight answers.
How does the instant estimate tool work?
Select auto, home, or business, then answer a few quick questions. Auto gives you a single itemized price. Home and business ask whether you have exact or estimated dimensions, then show an itemized low–high price range that updates live as you enter measurements and pick a film — all before you ever talk to us.
What's the difference between Carbon, Ceramic, and Nano-Ceramic film?
All three are genuine HITEK automotive films. Carbon (Carbon IR) is our budget-friendly entry tier with solid heat rejection. Ceramic (Ceramic Pro Black) steps up heat rejection and optical clarity — our most popular choice. Nano-Ceramic (Ceramic Ultra) is our top-tier film with the best heat and UV rejection along with premium clarity.
What film types are available for homes and businesses, and are they all compatible with any window?
We offer solar & anti-glare, security, decorative, bird safety, and anti-graffiti films for residential and commercial glass. Not every film suits every window — for example, security film needs an on-site assessment on already-tempered glass, and anti-graffiti film is designed for ground-level storefront glass. We'll confirm the right fit for your specific windows at your free consultation.
How much does window tinting cost in Austin TX?
Auto tinting starts around $180 and varies by vehicle size, film tier, and coverage (full, front, or rear cabin). Residential and commercial film is priced by square footage — generally $4–$14 per sq ft, with larger projects getting a lower per-sq-ft rate. If you know your exact dimensions we'll quote from our published rate chart; if you're estimating, we use a wider guideline ($100–$250/window or $5–$8/sq ft for homes) until we confirm exact measurements at your consultation.
What warranty comes with your window tinting?
We provide a lifetime warranty against installation damage or defects, honored in-shop only — bring your vehicle or property back to us for any warranty work. Film defects caused by manufacturing (such as bubbling or discoloration from the film itself) are covered separately through HITEK's manufacturer warranty.
Can I book my appointment right after getting my estimate?
For auto tinting, yes — as soon as you submit your estimate, you'll get a "Book My Appointment Now" button that takes you straight to our live scheduling calendar. For home and business projects, you'll instead book a free in-person consultation — we bring film samples and take exact measurements on-site to confirm your final price before scheduling the install. Consultation visits take about 15–45 minutes depending on job size.
Is window tinting legal in Texas?
Yes — with the right film and installation. Texas law requires that front side windows, and the windshield strip above the manufacturer's AS-1 line, allow at least 25% light transmission (VLT). Rear side windows and the back window can be any darkness. Our instant auto estimate includes a 3D preview and shade picker (5%, 20%, 30%, 50%, 70%) so you can see exactly what's legal before you book.
Can I get a darker shade than 25% VLT on my front windows or windshield?
Only with a valid Texas medical tint exemption — a signed, current statement from a licensed physician or optometrist stating that darker tint is medically necessary, kept in the vehicle. If you select 5% or 20% VLT for your front cabin or windshield in our estimate tool, you'll be asked to confirm you have (or will obtain) this exemption. G1 requires your doctor's note on file before we begin installation — no exceptions.
Do you remove old tint or film before installing new film?
Yes. For auto tinting, check the removal option in the instant estimate tool and we'll include it in your price and appointment. For homes and businesses, mention any existing film in the notes field when you request your estimate — we'll factor removal into the final price at your in-person consultation.
What happens at a home or business consultation visit?
We visit your home or business, bring physical film samples so you can see and feel each option in person, and take exact measurements of your windows or glass. This confirms your final price within the range from your online estimate. Visits typically run 15–45 minutes depending on the size of the job.
Do you serve areas outside Austin?
Yes — we serve the greater Austin metro area including Cedar Park, Round Rock, Pflugerville, Georgetown, Leander, Buda, Kyle, Hutto, Manor, Lakeway, and Dripping Springs. Contact us if you're outside these areas and we'll let you know if we can accommodate your location.
Can you tint a Tesla's panoramic windshield?
Yes — large-format EV glass is one of our specialties. A Tesla panoramic windshield is a single oversized, curved pane, so it takes careful measuring and film-shrinking to lay the film in cleanly without creases or bubbles. We use heat-rejecting ceramic film to cut cabin heat and glare on those big glass surfaces.
Does tinting a Rivian or Lucid glass roof void the manufacturer warranty?
Professionally installed window film generally does not void your vehicle's factory warranty — a manufacturer would have to show the film caused a specific failure. We use quality ceramic film and proper technique to protect the glass. If you have any concerns, check your owner's manual or ask us before your appointment and we'll walk you through it.
Why does large-format EV glass require a specialist installer?
EV panoramic windshields and glass roofs are far larger and more curved than standard windows. Because it's one big, expensive sheet of film, any crease or bubble is highly visible and a single misstep wastes the whole piece. Specialist measuring, handling, and film-shrinking technique is what gets you a clean, bubble-free finish on that oversized glass.
