My friends and I have been going to Peter @ California Tint since 1999. They do very good work at California tint and Peter is such an awesome guy to deal with. I recommend this shop as well.

^ johnson film... for a few reason.. companies like solar guard want their tinters to sell for more.. and johnson is a well priced film and just as good quality wise.. i mean i've had it for almost 2 years now on my 06 with no fade.. my aunts cars had it for well over 10 years on her old school integra with minor fade and no peeling (keeping in mind car i daily driven but garaged).. also u get a REAL life time warranty or just give me a call and i'll make sure they take care of u..

I've brought back my truck numbers of time to get the driver re-tinted because the seat belt buckle would always hit the tint causing scratches - not warranty of course but they do a great job everytime

that shop has 4 bays that they use to tint.. on wed-sat he has 5 tinters and 6 if peter jumps in too.. that shop does more work in a day then most will do in 2 weeks.. hence they can afford the price cut.. they do not need to make $130profit per car..

those guys are there 8am (tinting) - shop opens 9.. and closing at 6 (up til 8PM before!) working on cars.. sometime they're there on sunday if saturday gets too filled up

I use Tint Zone in Rowland Heights, and have sent tons of G's there.

About the same on $$... plus he'll file the tint for an extra $20 so you have no edges (blends into glass)

Ask for David... tell him Ted sent ya!

^ +1 on david tho.. i know him very well as well but honestly cali tint out tints him.. theres just still bubbles in there.. i sent him about 5 cars last year and they came out =\ (good thing the guys werent picky) he uses top $ film tho. and is probably one of the best valued tint to film type u'll find in the area.

thought i'd give him another shot and let him do the GF's TL's windshield =\ it came out =\ very wavy and lots and lots of air bubbles =\ =\ but hes a excellent tinter on the windows tho and a great guy.. but eh ._.

david does a killer job on the overlays tho

hahah that was my coupe there over the weekend, it came out nice!

I even pulled the "Eric from my car club sent me over here" ticket on him LOL

They actually had to remove my old tint from the back 3 windows and then tint all 5 windows in one day lol, no appointment either, I just drove in at 9 when they opened.

All of that for $150 is cheap I expecting it to be in the +$200 range at least.
