South Philly Tint shop

idy-amin · 10-18-2008, 12:03 PM

I just moved to south Philly and picked up my 08 335i. I want to get the windows tinted, but I don't know where to go and want to get it done right.
I did some searching and Shades of Grey in Northern Philly seems to be a good place, but that's a ways away from me so I was hoping to find a place in South Philly. Oh and I live outside of Kennitt Square and work up by the airport so anywhere toward the south of Philly is game.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

i went to shades of gray they did an ok job i noticed a lot of bubbles that were suppose to go away after a few weeks but didn't and a lot of marks started to show up, there was no way i was driving back over an hour just for tints haha so i just removed them and went to a local tint shop...so IMO local shops FTW

ejazbmw · 10-19-2008, 03:14 PM

oh but i don't mean to make shades of gray look bad they were really nice when i told them about the issue and told me to come down anytime and they'll fix it, i just didn't want to drive there

dreamk · 10-23-2008, 10:58 AM

the regular price is 180 for the e90 or e92. when we were there. give them a call and they can quote you.

idy-amin · 10-23-2008, 06:35 PM

I would be in for a group tint event. 150 is what I paid for my last car to get tinted in FL so that's not to bad.

PNF · 10-23-2008, 07:25 PM

hey.~

You interested in tint?

I am looking for a tint shop and I may go to a couple that were recommended here.

So, lets get a roll car for those who want to tint?

I want to ting ASAP!!

So, lets get maybe 5 cars.. and we should be able to get a good price.

This is happening AROUND PHILADELPHIA/SOUTH JERSEY.

Put your SN / car
1) PNF, E92
2) idy-amin, E92
