Sorry can't help you, just a comment
DOn't most tint places offer lifetime warranties on their tints? Whats with all 4 places you've called offering just 1 year warranty??


I'm in Mass and I'm getting mine done this Thursday by Sun n Sound for $199 with lifetime warranty

Well i THINK when they say 1 year warrenty is that they mean a warrenty on the install but i think the actual tint is warrentyed for life. Not really sure thats just want Sun Glory was telling me.

Also will my light interior make tint look lighter? For example would 35% on my car look lighter than a car with black interior?

I'm curious about this too...i know the interior color will make a difference but is it a huge difference? I was planning on asking for 35% but now i'm thinking maybe 30%, i do have black interior but i dont want the kind of Tint that people on the outside can easily see into my car and i also don't want tickets so i'm looking for a happy medium.

Might be a bit too late but if you don't mind driving to Mass, Tint King is the best you can get.
