Post high quality, respectable tint in Sacto?

any folks with tint shop recommendations around Sacto? looking for a high quality, established shop for the job.

it's a silver 02 WRX Wagon... pretty sure about going with a "smoke" color, just not sure about the % yet - any suggestions? what kinda price estimate should i expect for the whole wagon?

I'm neither high quality nor respectable. I did my own tint and a friend of mine's also. The four rear sides are pretty easy. The back is a pain. Anyway, the sides cost me a little over $25 to do and I had somebody do the rear for $60. I bought Llumar tint from Tap Plastics.

You can't tell from pictures but I think my tint (as well as my friend's) came out pretty good. I've seen worse jobs that were professionally done.

Everyone i know or have known has gone to Eclipse Auto Tint 6165 Auburn Blvd 916-728-4867, including myself. I forget the guys name but he's one of the best Tint and interior installers in california...he's recieved a lot of awards and is pretty cool. He even let me chill in the garage and watch the process. Not to mention one of his tint installers is a hottie.

take Greenback to Auburn blvd and it's right between the honda dealership and the Arco AM-PM.

He's got all the shades, colors and grades of tints and can pretty much get you anything you need in regard to interior/exterior for your car.


you won't be disapointed

I went to Eclipse last week and got a SUPERB tint job done. He did an awsome job and I would recommend it to anyone. The five windows only took two hours.

Eric: are you talking about the little Filipina girl or the tall brown-haired girl?

The Filipina girl... you don't know her do you!?

I recommend ECLIPSE on Auburn & Greenback, as well. They have done a great job on all of my tints (5 altogether).
