As I understand it, Llumar Bronze isn't available anywhere anymore. Definitely not on TintCenter. Even Suntek HP Bronze appears to be unavailable on that site now. I bought some Suntek HP Bronze from them last year, and at the time that was the only bronze tint I could find online (still haven't installed it, unfortunately).
Here are my complete notes from my search for decent bronze tint, last updated 2018:

Looks like a perfect match, some debate about whether 'platinum' would have the bronze look

The very close match was ceramic and made by Viper.
Ive decided that instead of trying to match it, or replace all the rear glass with clear, or find that special solution to remove the factory sprayed-on tint, Im just going to tint the rear, and add the clear, UV-blocking ceramic to the front and windshield. Embrace the old-school look?
I also have a theory that getting windows tinted in the dead of winter is the time to do it, because maybe can get a better deal?

Here's a random Facebook promo video I came across. It's dated 2022, mentions "HP bronze 40" to match a 90s Japanese look, and shows a Llumar badge at the beginning. It also shows "FormulaOne" which appears to be a current Llumar product family, but their site doesn't say anything about bronze. So, just some old stock they had laying around, or a product not listed clearly on their site?
Did you end up fixing this problem? Curious how it turned out
I just put the LLumar Formula One Stratos 70 on the windshield and it was well worth it.
I had their Air 80 on a previous truck, which was cheaper but still ceramic l, and I can’t tell much of a difference.
2 out of 3 tint places just wouldn’t tint my 80 so my options were limited. One didn’t have it in their computer that cuts the film and the other didn’t want to deal with accidentally breaking old plastic… which actually happened on a small piece of sunroof trim.
