Frequently Asked Questions

Tesla window tinting in Denver ranges from approximately $299 to $1,099 depending on the model, film type, and number of windows. The Model 3 starts around $299, while the Model X (with its falcon wing doors and panoramic windshield) can go up to $1,099 for full coverage with premium ceramic film. Most customers spend between $499 and $799 for a complete installation.

Yes, especially in Colorado. Ceramic tint blocks up to 98% of infrared heat compared to 40–60% for dyed film and 60–80% for carbon film. At Denver's 5,280-foot elevation where UV is ~25% stronger than sea level, ceramic tint provides measurably better heat rejection, UV protection, and longevity. It also contains no metal, ensuring full compatibility with Tesla's sensors and Autopilot.

Colorado requires a minimum of 27% VLT (Visible Light Transmission) on front side windows. Rear side windows and the rear window can be any darkness. The windshield may only have non-reflective tint above the AS-1 line. Metallic or mirrored tint is prohibited. See our complete Colorado window tint laws guide for full details including penalties and medical exemptions.

If your front side windows are darker than 27% VLT, law enforcement may measure your tint during a traffic stop using a calibrated tint meter. The first offense is typically a fix-it ticket. We install to Colorado-legal specifications so you never have to worry.

Yes. Colorado allows medical exemptions for conditions like lupus, photosensitivity, or melanoma. You need a signed letter from a licensed physician. Read more about medical exemptions.

No. We exclusively use ceramic window tint films that contain no metallic particles. These films are verified to work without interfering with Tesla's Autopilot cameras, ultrasonic sensors, or any driver assistance features. Your Tesla will function exactly as designed after tinting.

Tesla's glass roof already blocks most UV rays, but it still allows significant infrared heat into the cabin. Adding a high-clarity ceramic film (70% VLT) to the roof blocks 85%+ of infrared heat, reducing cabin temperatures by 10–15°F. This is especially beneficial for the Model Y, which has approximately 56 square feet of total glass.

Yes. By blocking up to 98% of infrared heat before it enters the cabin, ceramic tint reduces the workload on your Tesla's climate system. Less AC usage means less energy consumption and more range per charge. This is especially noticeable during Colorado summers when the AC runs constantly.

Teslas have significantly more glass area than most vehicles. The Model Y has approximately 56 square feet of glass, and every Tesla features a panoramic glass roof. This large glass area means more solar heat gain, more UV exposure, and greater need for protection — especially in Colorado with its 300+ days of sunshine and approximately 25% stronger UV at mile-high elevation.

A typical Tesla window tint installation takes 2 to 4 hours depending on the model and coverage. Computer-cut templates designed specifically for each Tesla model ensure a precise fit. We recommend allowing the full day so the film can begin curing before you drive.

We recommend waiting 3 to 5 days before rolling down your tinted windows. This allows the adhesive to fully cure. In Colorado's dry climate, curing is generally faster than in humid regions, but patience ensures the best long-term results.

Yes. Our premium ceramic window tint installations come with a 10-year warranty covering bubbling, peeling, cracking, and color fading. This warranty covers both the film material and our installation workmanship.

Ceramic tint uses nano-ceramic particles to block infrared heat (up to 98% rejection) without any metallic content. Carbon tint uses carbon particles and blocks 40–60% of infrared heat. Ceramic is superior in heat rejection, clarity, and longevity, and is the best choice for Tesla vehicles because it never interferes with sensors. Carbon is a mid-range option that costs less but provides less heat rejection.

For Colorado-legal front side windows, we recommend 35% ceramic film, which combines with Tesla's factory glass (~70–78% VLT) to produce approximately 27% combined VLT — right at the legal limit. For rear windows, popular choices are 15% or 20% for a sleek, dark look, or 5% (limo tint) for maximum privacy. Check our tint laws page for model-specific recommendations.
