All my cars were tinted at Window Tinting plus in Fremont, not sure if they are still there tho, among those mentioned? the Automall and Omega seem to have best reputations here and on Bimmer boards for window tinting.

It cost me 200 bucks for each car with all 5 windows plus moonroof using Suntek HPs which is on the lower end of the films, with same film uesed at Automall? Sid quoted me couple years ago was 325 or 299 with cash.

Yeah, it's still around and i believe you can find a $20 dollar off coupon too on their website.

I got my car done at Omega Tintwerkz and it came out great.
I would also highly recommend Premier Mobile Aesthetics Group and Automall Tint Factory

I got the SunTek carbon because it came in a 45%, but Vince normally uses Llumar. Both are non-ceramic tints with no metallic properties. Vince is on Summer pricing, so the prices are gonna be a tad higher than his winter pricing. I had mine done earlier this year with the winter prices for 240ish i believe.
