Add "Ben's house" to performance shops in Columbus, OH...lol j/k =p ok i'll be quiet now....

 

lol from what I've read that's not far from the truth.

 

Hey, I'm actually planning on getting my windows tinted pretty soon, so this thread is of interest to me. I'm thinking of going to AAP (aapcolumbus.com). I will say that they did an excellent job for my clear bra. Anyone have any thoughts on them for tinting? I've read in other forums of people who have driven from Cleveland to get their windows tinted with them, so I'm assuming they must be pretty good.

 

I added your recommendation, thanks buffpatel

nice thing about formulaone tint is it's limited lifetime warranty that can be serviced at ANY formulone dealer nationwide...plus it's baller tint...meaning it's expensive for no good reason lol. oh and you hafta meet certain requirements from formulaone in order to sell their tint. formulaone is owned by llumar.

Hey Tedd,

Have you had any dealings with "Quality Window Tint" in Columbus? I want to make sure the list i'm building has places that people know are worth their time.

Did you also want me to start a cincinatti block for the solar shade?

 

no personal dealings with quality window tint, but recommended because like i said, to deal in formulaone tint you have to generally be a reputable shop.

Solar shade i have dealt with personally. The did good work. They're actually closer to dayton, than cincy haha.

 

Ive had about 10 cars tinted at Mr. Tint on Frank rd. #351-TINT Dal had his widebody kit and paint done at True Performance in Plain City.

 

Thanks for the additions guys, good to hear the veterans pitching in to help build this list!

 

Sticky This!!!!!

 

Guys on ColumbusRacing have praise Clifford Automotive here in columbus for paint jobs.. He quoted me 250 to do a paint job on a nismo bumper. If I do suck it up and finally ill def write my reviews on the quality.

When I worked at Lexus back in the day we got windows on cars tinted at Quality window tint.. No customer ever complained
