The Honda Civic is the most-tinted compact car in America, and a good car for a first DIY install. If you're pricing ceramic tint for your Civic in 2026, here's what to know.
Why ceramic tint is worth it for a Civic:
- Reject up to 87.6% of infrared heat (huge on a black or dark interior)
- Block 99%+ of UV to help keep the dash and seats from fading
- Compatible with Honda Sensing, LaneWatch, and keyless entry
HMU4TINT ceramic Civic kits (precut):
- 2016–2021 10th gen (sedan, coupe, hatchback, Si, Type R)
- 2022–2025 11th gen (sedan, hatchback, Si, Type R)
- 2026–2027 refresh year
- Front doors, rear doors, rear windshield, and quarter glass
Recommended shades:
- Rear windows: 20% or 5% for a darker look
- Front doors: check your state's tint laws before you choose
- Cold states: 50% VLT all-around
Install time:
An experienced installer takes about 45 minutes per door window, 30 minutes per quarter window and 1 hour for the rear windshield (all time estimates). A first install takes longer, so start with a front door, save the curved rear windshield for last, and don't start a window you can't finish the same day.
Pricing:
