Whatever you do DO NOT go to Tint King.

They are horrendous, and my tint was bubbling after one summer on my previous car and they wouldn't repair it. If your going to call yourself the tint king, make sure you do decent work lol

I used fx a couple of months ago and went with Pinnacle, 30%. They messed up the back window a bit, so I have to go back and get it redone at some point.

Odd... When I spoke to them... The said they didn't have pinnacle 30%.... They said something about the metallic film causes interference...

I have the same tint done at FX and went back twice for rapair. Went to Audio Heaven, used Solar Gard Charcoal for my 09 Accord and it was perfectly done.

Garage List
Auto-links is the place to go.

They have 15% pinnacle tint and you won't be disappointed. Ceramic film isn't as good quality as pinnacle yet they charge the same.

Tisk tisk...

Call them and ask for John

+1, John @ autolinks did a perfect job on my E90 with 30% all around last week. Tint looks even better after curing.

Read quite a few reviews about Autolinks

Seems that quite a few guys favour their work. Also read up that they are capable of dealign with the dot matrix on the rear window.
