Tinting in SF

I just purchased my Coupe not to long ago and I was wondering if you guys can recommend a place to tint my windows. Can you also recommend places to avoid. Thank you.

Re: Tinting in SF

Got my tint at Auto Mall Tint Factory in Fremont

http://www.automalltintfactory.com/index.html

Paid $250 for 5 windows. Used Suntek HP tint. 35% on the sides and 20% rear. One piece tint all the way to the top for the rear window. Tinted all the way to the top for the front windows and filed the edges.

Quality looks top notch. It's been almost 10 months and I have not had any problems.

here's a quick pic

Yes, I do tint / detailing and other things that make our Gs look great. The rear glass is always applied w/ a 1 pc film. Some places offer tint for a low price, but end up cutting the film into multiple pieces in order to fit the tint over the contoured rear glass. We tint w/ one piece only and offer Madico's line of high quality films. Just swing by to the shop and take a look @ our cars to get an idea what the job will look like on your car.

Re: Tinting in SF

Sounds like a plan, wil. By the way, you didn't mention what shop you represent. Do you guys also sell performance parts and wheel/tire combinations? If my first visit is a charm, I would like to get all my parts from you, knowing that you can take care of me in the future. Unlike some of those online stores. Since you have the same car yourself I'm sure you'll be able help me out.

Re: Tinting in SF

Mach III in San Francisco (1507 Ocean Avenue, SF, 94112- 415-594-0030 / 415-594-0029). What we sell?....hmmm.....that's a lot to list. Basically, performance, automotive audio / security systems, window tinting, clearbra installations, wheels / tires (Volk dealer), parts / accessories......etc. You could check out our site @ www.machiii.net.

If you would like to have your car tinted, you could take a look at the cars we have or the cars we are done tinting. We go through 2-3 cars per day for tints, so chances are you could catch one of our finished jobs. On my own cars, I use Madico's Onyx Series film. I prefer to have the tint as dry as possible before the customers' cars leave the shop because accidents do happen (when they roll the window down). This will keep the dry time down to a minimum before the windows could be rolled down. We use only 1 piece to tint the rear glass and do not spray paint or place vinyl pieces on top of the rear dot matrix. We use another method that will keep the tint sticking to it in order to produce a true factory tint look.

Hope that's not too much info!
