How perfect can I expect on a tint job??

Hey guys, I need some advice. I just got my windows tinted 2 weeks ago and still see few small bubbles. For the rear glass, it definitely needs fixing because stupid guy there tried to put it on dot matrix and it's getting white. But for rest of the windows, how good should I expect?? I'm not expecting a perfect job either. It's my first time tinting and need some advice. Thanks in advance.

Mine have some bubbles around the dot matrix as well. It's not all the way around but only in some areas. Take it back to the tint shop. I've heard that not all bubbles can be taken off but most can.

Should expect near to perfect job. All of my windows are fine except for the back where these is maybe 2-3 bubbles on the dot matrix.

well normally the tint place should give you like a warranty of some sort. i just got my windows tinted last week on saturday and i havent noticed any bubbles whatso ever... i paid $90 all around except the front windshield and i have lifetime warranty. it would of been $100 but since my bro took his car and had them tinted as well, he gave me a 10 dollar discount, and he gave him 20 dollars discount... ill give the back window a closer look on the dot matrix and see if i notice any bubbles. and the dude that installed my tint said, bubbles will show up, but if after a week you still have bubbles, then he suggested to take the car back to him.

hope everything goes well with your tint armani!

a good way to see how good they tint it is to run ur finger nails on the very edge of the tint.

Roll down ur window a lil and see if u can pick @ the tint, the better shops manage to tint all the way to the edge.

I had bubbles on my tint for a cple days but then they dissapeared.

if you dont like ur tint and ur gonna get it redone i would recomment Cali tint,

they are located in the city of rosemead on rosemead blvd.

price is around $150 but they do an amazing job,
tell them pnut with the white g35 sent u if u want

i went to,

SOUNDS CRAZY ALARM SPECIALISTS
2500 FIRESTONE BOULEVARD SUITE A, SOUTH GATE, CA 90280
Phone: (323) 564-6422

i'm not sure if that's the correct address, i pulled it off of the yellow pages, but give them a call. if you know your way around Huntington Park, the place is on Firestone between Alameda & Santa Fe, on the southside on Firestone. Hope that helps man.

by the way, they install sound systems there as well!! i asked about having the DVD installation with my stock Navi, and they said all i need is a plug... i'm still thinking about doing it though. just thought i'd throw that out there, if you were interested in that too.

armani-back in the days when I lived in Torrance, I went to this one j-place
on 190th. It's between Crenshaw and Western, right across the Nissan building.
VanessSt. was it? I keep forgetting the street names. Going from Crenshaw,
it's past the R/R tracks and to your left on 190th. Had my lude tinted there
and they did a nice job.

Also, my buddy that works(worked?) at Scott-xxx Honda Service on Crenshall
(Scott Robinson was it?) mentioned he recommended the 'barn.' off Carson
(I think he said a block west of Carson). but this was 7 years ago so not
sure if it still exists.
