You have some great pricing, there. My lowest quote for ceramic tint on a pair of not-yet-installed windshields was $500 EACH. I passed as that was a lot more than I paid for the windshields themselves.

I had my rear window replaced, and the new window had no tint. So when I brought it in to get the rear window done by a professional shop, he
agreed to do the front windshield as well.
When I picked it up, he had the windshields done, and next to the coach was a trash can full of tint that had ripped on him while trying to
shrink/stretch the film on the windshield. He said Never again! or maybe for double the amount he quoted. ($500 for both windshields and rear
window)..
He said the passenger side was not terrible, once he figured out what he needed to do for shape/pattern. the driver side with the dash in the way
was almost impossible. He had some tools and looked like he had fabricated more squeegie tools to be work the film in that corner. there just is no
good way to get heat applied and get the tools in that corner he said.
sorry- no help, but hope you can figure it out. I am sure you can seam it, but you will be looking at a seam your entire life.
I do like that film, it is virtually invisible, but cuts down the heat coming in the windshield noticeably.
