Tint Suggestion

Long story short some A-hole shattered one of the rear quarter windows on my daily driver and I need to get all the tint redone. I know that there have been a few threads about places to get tint installed on our G's and such but I am looking for a suggestion on a place to have tint removed and replaced on my daily driver. I am more worried about The defroster lines on the rear windshield and making sure which ever shop I go to is competent enough not to damage the defroster lines when removing the old tint. Of course I am hoping to be pointed in the direction of a shop that can do this work for me at a reasonable price as well. TIA for any suggestions.

Sorry to read of your misfortune there.

Posting your location might yield better qualified responses. Good luck.

located in Santa Clara...

I went here and the price was very good. The place looks like a dive but they do good work.

+1 for MachIII. Johnson did my window tint some 4 years ago and it still looks great.

Best Image in San Mateo does great work and backed by a lifetime warranty. talk em down. I paid $120, just call and ask for $120 b/c your friend had his done for that much (I have a coupe though so if you have a sedan ask for $140).
