abcdang,

How long did it take them to install the tints and how much, if you don't mine my asking? Do they offer any type of warranty? Their website seems to be under construction at the moment. I'll need to give them a call.

they did it same day, 2-3 hrs. $180 or $200 out the door for a sedan, all windows.
there was an issue with distortion in the rear tint, so they redid it for me.
barry bonds had his porsche done there.
They were doing an e55 last time i was there.

i considered those places listed above, but they are too far away. my car was the ivory pearl sedan at premier's grand opening.

they have a lifetime warranty and actually have been in business for many years, even though their website sucks.

Yup it is, and Sam was the one referr them to me cus he was too busy to do my tint last year, I end up went somewhere else, used same exact film (Suntek HP Charcoal) but it was about 100 bucks less than Automall tinting, I recommend Automall to you because I know they will take extra care with your G, and they do have higher quality films like Hüper Optik Ceramic, V-Kool, Llumar..unlike the run of mill kind of place I went to, althou it trun out alright(twice) but I dont want to take chance with other ppl's car...What the heck are you still waiting for? summer is here already, get your G tinted alright already...got more itchs about getting F.I. yet?

yep...got my huper's there and sid did a great job. no problems with the dot matrix and he didnt have to do no ghetto action with the black vinyl strip over the dot matrix...he just placed the huper right over and it and it's been 2 years already with no issues.

I've gotten my car tinted by Vince @ Omega and I loved it. I recommended all of my friends there. And when I get the 07 Sedan, Vince will be the one to tint it.

And yes, his DOT matrix fix works.

Andy, I also got my tint done there. They did a great job with Madico tint for like $180, lifetime warrenty on the tint.

They need your car for about 3 hours.
