Vincent at Omega Werks in Pleasanton. I don't think it will be that cheap of a price, but he does a great job based on everyone's reviews I've heard and seen.

+1 for Vince at Omega as well, I got 35% as well, but i guarantee you it'll be way out of your price range.

Best Image in San Mateo did some pretty good work on my girl's fit. They're fast, decent (not as good as Vince's IMO), very good price. $165 all 9 windows!

Just to make sure you know, you cannot tint the passenger and driver windows legally. I have mine done also, it is just a risk you take.

One more for Vince at Omega! He does the best work. Period. He's done three different vehicles for me over the past 7 or 8 years. Well worth the extra $40 or so you'd save going somewhere else. He's always given me an i-Club discount as well.

Does Vince have a Website, or should I just give him a ring up and make an appointment?

Just call him up and make an appointment.

I also got my car tinted by Vince. Top notch work. I will be getting all my cars tinted by him.

Kevin you won't be able to find any good quality tinting for that price for that number of windows around the bay area.

Just as Jourdan said, give him a call and see about setting an appointment. Also worth asking about i-Club discount.

Cool... Thanks. Is there anywhere around the South Bay that is comparable to Omega or should I just bite the bullet and go out to see Vince?

Also, Sorry to the OP for somewhat highjacking the thread... I am just also in the market for tinting so I'm glad you asked....
