Tint Shop Recommandation (Irvine)

Shinchan · 10-03-2013, 08:54 AM

Hi South California.... I just move from Boston to here. I am looking for a good tint shop around Irvine area. Anyone knows one? What is the regulation on the tint? and What is a good film....?

Thanks...

Specialized Auto Tint does good work. I've had two BMWs tinted there. They use 3M products there and have 3 different levels. I had my e90 tinted with the 3M Color Stable 35% all around. Cost was $300. It's not quite factory quality, but pretty close.

California law prohibits any tint on the front driver and passenger side windows but I've never had a problem in and around Orange County. I've heard it's more troublesome in LA and especially at LAX where it's like shooting fish in a barrel for LA County Sheriffs.

My FM reception went to shit when I had my windows tinted. Is it because he used the wrong product on the rear glass?
