Good Tint Shops in the area?

Who does some good work on windows? I don't want my windows to turn purple or have bubbles.

+1, they did an awesome job on my RS, and it still looks great three years later. Metallic tint FTW

They do all the Sacramento Kings Players' cars. The owner has a sweet Lambo (I believe) too

Eclipse is the ONLY place I would trust, That guy does amazing work, and is a fair price... Just go inside and look at his Hall of fame...

I don't remember, mine was years ago I'm sure I'll be taking the Legacy there to get the purple tint replaced eventually.

It really wasn't bad. For a 5-window job (most sedans) it should be aorund 250 if you get the trick ceramic film (doesn't fade, doesn't screw with radar detectors.)

My car was done at Eclipse as well.

Bobby does the best work.. pay the few extra dollars.. you wont be upset

when you try to find the low ball place to do it on the cheap, thats when you have problems
