Dodge Charger window tint
The Charger's back glass is big and steeply raked; in the Wailuku shop we shrink the film to it in one piece, keep the fronts legal and let the rear go as dark as you want.

Short answer
Offshore tints the Dodge Charger with ProLayers film at 430 Hookahi St in Wailuku. The large, raked back glass is heat-shrunk as a single piece, the front doors stay at 35% VLT or lighter, measured through film and glass as Hawaii requires, and the rear doors and back glass of the sedan can go as dark as you like. Scat Pack, Hellcat and Widebody cars use the same glass as a standard Charger, so the job and the quote are the same.
Key takeaways
- The Charger's back glass is large and steeply raked, so the film is heat-shrunk to the curve in one piece before it goes on.
- Scat Pack, SRT Hellcat and Widebody Chargers share the standard sedan glass; the tint job and the price do not change with the engine.
- Front doors are installed at 35% VLT or lighter; Hawaii lets a sedan with mirrors on both sides run any shade on the rear doors and back glass, limo black included.
- ProLayers film has no metal layer, so Uconnect, GPS, satellite radio and the driver-assist sensors work as before.
- A Charger is a four-door-plus-back-glass job, usually about two to three and a half hours depending on the film tier.

How it works
- 01Tell us the year and trim
Model year, trim and whether there is old film on the glass. That sets the pattern and the hours.
- 02Prep
Every window gets an ammonia-free clean. Old film and adhesive come off first if present.
- 03Shape the back glass
The rear film is laid on the outside of the glass and heat-shrunk to the curve before it is installed inside.
- 04Cut and install
Computer-cut film for the Charger's windows, applied wet and squeegeed flat. Nothing is cut on your glass.
- 05Inspect and cure
We check every edge before pickup. Keep the windows up for three to five days while the film cures.
What's specific to this vehicle
- Glass
- The Charger sedan has four door windows and one large, steeply raked back glass. That rear pane is the whole job: the film is shrunk to its compound curve on the outside of the car, then installed inside as a single piece with no seams and no relief cuts.
- Trims
- SXT, GT, R/T, Scat Pack, SRT Hellcat and the Widebody cars all share the same sedan glass. The wider fenders and bigger engines change nothing about the tint, so a Hellcat costs the same to tint as a GT.
- ADAS
- Adaptive cruise and forward collision warning on equipped Chargers read from sensors at the front of the car, not behind the side glass. ProLayers film is non-metallic, so Uconnect, GPS, satellite radio and phone signal are unaffected.
- Tint levels
- Front doors at 35% VLT or lighter through film and glass, as Hawaii requires, with a 6% tolerance when the tint is metered at inspection. Rear doors and back glass can be any shade because the sedan has mirrors on both sides. For the blacked-out look, run the darkest legal front with a much darker rear. The car leaves with the compliance certificate Hawaii requires.
- Body
- The 2024 and later Charger is a new car with a different body and glass. We pull the pattern for that car at quote time rather than assume it matches the 2011 to 2023 sedan. Hawaii's any-shade rear rule names sedans but not coupes, so on the two-door the shop confirms the rear shade before cutting.

The back glass is the job
A Charger has four door windows and one very large rear window that leans back at a steep angle. The door glass is quick. The back glass is where the time and the skill go. That pane curves in two directions, so a flat sheet of film will not lie on it.
We lay the film on the outside of the glass, heat-shrink it until it matches the curve, then trim it and install it on the inside as one piece. No seams, no relief cuts, no bubbles along the defroster lines. It is the same method our window tint installs use on every raked rear window, and the Charger’s is a steep one.
Scat Pack, Hellcat and Widebody
The engine and the fenders change. The glass does not. SXT, GT, R/T, Scat Pack, SRT Hellcat and the Widebody cars all share the same sedan windows, so the pattern, the hours and the price are the same. You are not paying a horsepower premium on tint.
The blacked-out look, legally
If you want the car dark, Hawaii allows it on the rear doors and the back glass of the sedan, which can go as dark as limo film because the car has mirrors on both sides. The front doors must pass at least 35% of light, measured through the film and the glass together, with a 6% tolerance when the annual safety inspection meters it. The darkest legal front with a much darker rear looks close to uniform from the street. The windshield takes a top strip down to the AS-1 line, or a clear film that keeps the AS-1 area at 70%, and mirrored film is out. Every Charger leaves with the compliance certificate Hawaii requires, which stays in the car. There is no medical exemption for darker fronts; the full rules are on the Hawaii window tint law page.
Which film
V6 Comfort is a carbon film: the look, UV block and glare cut.
V10 Ceramic IR and V16 Ceramic IR MAX add infrared rejection, which is what you feel on a black Charger parked in an open beach park lot on a hot afternoon. That big back glass lets a lot of heat onto the rear seat and the parcel shelf, and ceramic is what stops it. Ceramic vs carbon tint covers the difference in plain terms. None of the three films contain metal, so Uconnect, GPS and satellite radio are unaffected.
The new Charger
The 2024 and later Charger is a different car with different glass. We pull the pattern for that body when you request the quote rather than reuse the old sedan’s. Hawaii’s any-shade rear rule names sedans but not coupes, so if yours is the two-door, the shop confirms the rear shade for that body before cutting.
Scheduling
A Charger is a same-day job: morning drop-off, afternoon pickup. Keep the windows up for three to five days while the film cures. Request a quote with the year, trim and the shade you want and we will send the figure with Hawaii GET.
Questions
How much does it cost to tint a Dodge Charger on Maui?
Tint is quoted from the labor hours for a four-door sedan with back glass and the film tier you pick, plus Hawaii GET, with a deposit to book. Request a quote with the year and trim for the exact number.
How long does Charger window tint take?
About two hours on carbon and up to about three and a half on the top ceramic tier. Drop it off in the morning and pick it up the same day.
What is the darkest legal tint for a Charger in Hawaii?
The front doors must let through at least 35% of light, measured through film and glass, with a 6% tolerance at inspection. On the 2011 to 2023 sedan, the rear doors and back glass can run any shade because the car has outside mirrors on both sides. The windshield takes a top strip down to the AS-1 line, or a clear film that keeps the AS-1 area at 70%. Hawaii has no medical exemption for darker fronts.
Do you tint Scat Pack, Hellcat and Widebody Chargers?
Yes. They use the same glass as a standard Charger, so the film, the process and the price are the same.
Will tint interfere with Uconnect or GPS?
No. ProLayers film has no metal layer, so radio, GPS, phone signal and the driver-assist sensors work as before.
Do you tint the 2024 and later Charger?
Yes. It is a new body with different glass, so we confirm the pattern for that car when you request the quote. On the two-door, the shop also confirms the rear shade, because Hawaii's any-shade rear rule does not name coupes.
