Default Place to get tint in LM area

Hey Guys/Gals,

Where is a good place to get 5 windows for my IS tinted?
What should I be paying?

Thank you in advance.

by 5 windows, you do understand that the little quarter window counts as a window itself.

so if u want all by ur sunroof and ur front windshield tinted, that is actually 7 windows.

I had my windows tinted by Larry "the tint guy" via Advance Motorsport. He's contracted out by them and uses their indoor bay to do the tinting. larry does lifetime warranty on the tint and his work

if i remember correctly, the IS costs a bit more. so if ur doing all ur windows 7 windows, its like $20 or $30 more than the usual cost. 5 windows is like $200 and 7 windows is like $230 bucks. cuz its a labour job, if u bring cash, they can work out a deal for u.

just go to advmotors.com and book thru them. if i remember correctly, their number is 604-515-8948

larry IS mobile, but i remember chatting with him. he said that being mobile is convinent BUT doing the tint inside a bay yields better quality. he still moves the car outside for final touchup before handing the keys back to you. so far my tint has lived up about 2 years. no problems as of so far, one small scratch done by a heavy handed little cousin and his hotwheels. but other than that, its all good.

if you got ur car tinted at a dealer, chances are, they outsourced to him.
