“It’s due to this commitment to innovation and the customer that makes Josh Elliott and Autoplex Restyling Centers one of the very best in the LLumar SelectPro dealer network — and now our National Dealer of the Year for 2022.” — Eastman Performance Films
Autoplex has been named LLumar’s National Dealer of the Year twice — an honor only one other shop in the country has received.
The award is presented annually by Eastman Performance Films, the manufacturer behind LLumar and FormulaOne films, to the top-performing SelectPro dealer in the United States and Canada. Selection is based on installation quality, professionalism, showroom standards, customer experience, and FormulaOne product growth.
In 2022, Eastman presented the National Dealer of the Year award to Autoplex owner Josh Elliott at the 2023 Elite Dealer Conference in Carlsbad, California — recognizing more than 20 years of vehicle outfitting and a commitment to innovation that includes an in-house installer apprentice program developed by Elliott himself.
Autoplex’s first National Dealer of the Year win came in 2020. Receiving this recognition twice puts Autoplex in a category shared by only one other shop in the entire country.

Entry-level ceramic. Uses genuine ceramic particles for real heat rejection at an accessible price – a significant step up from dyed film for Colorado summers.
Pinnacle’s nano-ceramic technology delivers peak heat blocking at exceptional value. Matches the performance of many premium films at a lower price point than Stratos. Our most-sold film.
The industry’s most advanced heat blocking film. Proprietary Hybrid-Matrix technology uses billions of nanoscopic particles that absorb and disperse infrared heat outward through the glass.

Standard tint needs 3–5 days before windows can be rolled down. This upgrade heat-treats the adhesive during installation so your windows are ready to open immediately when you leave the shop.
Colorado law requires front side windows to allow a minimum of 27% visible light transmission (VLT). Rear side windows and the rear window have no VLT restriction for non-commercial vehicles.
| Darkness Option | Light Transmitted | Legal on Front Windows (CO)? |
|---|---|---|
| Light – 50% VLT | 50% light passes through | ✅ Legal on all windows, except windshield |
| Medium – 30% VLT | 30% light passes through | ✅ Legal on all windows, except windshield |
| Dark – 15% VLT | 15% light passes through | ⚠️ Legal on rear windows only |
| AIR 80 – 80% VLT | 80% light passes through | ✅ Legal on all windows ✅ Great for windshields and factory privacy glass |

Ceramic tint blocks heat; regular dyed film does not.
Regular dyed film (Classic) adds style and UV protection but doesn’t block heat. Ceramic tint uses nano-ceramic particles that reject infrared heat, keeping your cabin dramatically cooler – without affecting GPS, cell signal, or satellite radio. CTX, Pinnacle, and Stratos are all ceramics.
2–3 hours for most vehicles. Complex vehicles (Tesla Model 3, Corvettes, vans) may take longer.
Most standard vehicles are done in 2–3 hours. Vehicles with complex glass (Tesla Model 3, certain Corvettes, commercial vans) may take longer. Add the Express Roll-Down upgrade ($35) if you need to use your windows the same day.
Wait 3–5 days on a standard install. Add Express Roll-Down (+$35) to use your windows immediately.
