Headlights and Tint

I just got a black 2010 Lancer ES, my third Lancer actually I really like them. Anyway, I'm getting 20% tint all around and HID headlights. The shop I'm going to was recommended by a buddy of mine and said I could get this all done for around 350, I'm assuming this meant a full conversion not just bulbs. My question is this an accurate number? and if not what headlight upgrades would you all suggest, I'm trying to get away from the stock yellow lol.

PS. My buddy also indicated he actually is pretty tight with everyone at this shop so this might be a discount he gave me taking that into play.

Thanks everyone.

I also searched before I asked but I wasn't allowed to enter some of the forums in the search results.

350 sounds about right for tint and for a HID conversion kit, however, the HID kit probably doesn't include projector light housings. OEM Projector housings alone are $300/each.

It's about right adding the cost of labor but if you want to save you can buy and install the HID kit by yourself.
