Tint

Anyone got a hookup on a tint guy? Preferably in the south bay?

I go to Pleasanton for any work with tint.

Vince @ Omega is awesome.

Pricier now, and call to schedule ahead (probably a month or two). He's a bit bad on time management because he takes his time to get the job done right. But the job is done exactly how you want it. It'll last 10+ years ez without ****ty peel or discoloration.

Canlas Mobile Tint Romel is also one of the best around here. I've had him do 6 of my cars so far and always happy with his work. He's here in San Jose.

How much did it cost you to do your wag?

That's for the other replies guys. Damn Pleasanton is hella far.

LOL. Heedz windows = black even though he lives in one of the foggiest towns around. Mine are 20% rears and visor, 50% fronts. You can check mine out tonight if you're going to the meet.

Ahhh, damn it's not even "legal" to have tinted fronts at all huh. That's annoying. I hate you California.

Don't you have to peel off the tint if you get pulled over? aka, a waste of money? hahaha

I like your tint 04GG, does the job, but doesn't scream PULL ME OVER PLEASE

I've been pulled over with the windows like that too and cops have never said anything. I don't have to roll them down every time I see a cop like Heedz
