Research shows that skin cancer develops more frequently on the left side of the body, which is the side closest to the driver’s window. The Skin Cancer Foundation recognizes XPEL PRIME XR & XR Plus Window Tint as an effective UV protectant for everyday driving.
Window tint shades are measured by VLT (Visible Light Transmission), which refers to the percentage of light that passes through your film. We install a full range of window tint shades that comply with North Carolina’s legal limits.
Built with nano-ceramic construction, PRIME XR Ceramic Film delivers lasting clarity and a flawless appearance while blocking up to 88% of infrared heat.
With multi-layer nanoparticle technology, PRIME XR PLUS automotive window tint pairs a sleek, dark look with top-tier heat rejection performance.
If heat rejection is less of a concern, XPEL PRIME CS is a great option. It still blocks 99% of the sun’s harmful UV rays and offers color-stable, glare-reducing performance that will not fade, crack, peel, or turn purple over time.
XPEL PRIME XR & XR Plus use advanced ceramic particles to filter out the sun's infrared radiation, outperforming traditional metallized or dyed films in both durability and heat rejection.
The ceramic particle technology in our films blocks the majority of the sun's heat-causing infrared energy, keeping your cabin cooler and helping reduce the load on your air conditioning.
Unlike older metallized films, our nano-ceramic technology will not interfere with your radio, cellular, or Bluetooth signals, so your connectivity stays strong.
XPEL PRIME XR & XR Plus ceramic particles filter out harmful UV radiation, offering stronger protection for your skin and interior compared to standard metallized or dyed window films.

Window tint on its own does not increase gas mileage, but it does help regulate the temperature inside your car. When your air conditioner runs less, your fuel efficiency can improve. This is especially true for electric vehicles like Teslas, where less AC usage helps preserve battery life and extend driving range.
North Carolina requires front side windows to allow at least 35% of visible light through (VLT), with a 3% enforcement variance down to 32%. For sedans, the same 35% limit applies to rear and back windows. For SUVs, trucks, and vans, there is no darkness restriction on rear side windows or the rear windshield. Reflectivity must stay at or below 20%. As of December 1, 2025, tint checks have been removed from annual inspections, but the limits are still enforceable during traffic stops.
