Place to tint windows in SF bay area?

Anyone have experience with any window tint shop in or around San Francisco, CA that they recommend from personal experience?

I've taken both my cars to Window Tinting Plus in Fremont. Jay@JGMODS recommended me to them.

Skinrock, thanks for the recommendation.

How is the tint holding up? What type of warranty do they give you? Any issues with the tint (i.e., peeling, discoloration/fading)?

This business is listed on yelp with 6 reviews for a overall rating of 2.5 stars. Not many recent reviews.

I went to Rocky Mountain Window Tint in Livermore. Nice guy, good work, nice warranty. He even cuts the weather strip so that your tint doesn't get scratched, I believe. Bit pricey though.

Was around $220 per car, I've always done front and rear, so about 5 windows plus the c panel quarter windows.

Not sure what warranty they have - I've never had to make a claim. I had my BMW for two years and never had an issue, the new car has been tinted for about 6 months and no issues. Both have always been parked in a garage though. Not sure about the reviews - but I rarely use or trust Yelp. I went to a business that had like 4.5 and wasn't happy with the results.
