    Default Tinting

    Hey guys,

    Just wanted to know if you guys ever got your tint done through Car Salon. or ever heard anything about them.
    I know they use llumar, so how I'm more concern with their work. Anyone got any feed back?

    Thanks

    ya, theyre shit. dont go there. when i use to tint we would always re-do their tint jobs and from what ive heard it still happens alot.

    theres a reason when someone asks where to go for tint, car salon never comes up. go to Icon, Damien is awesome, but there are a hundred different choices, Damien is always my first choice.

    Yeah, I wasn't so sure about them, that's why i asked. I was thinking about taking it to shadow tint, but Car salon came into my work and yea. But I'll check out Damien before I'll do anything. Thanks!

    Got mine done at shadow years ago. Great job. Only thing you need to know is they take your doors apart to put on the tint. This is both good and bad. Good in that the tint goes well below the seal, bad is that well, they take your doors apart.

    I'd look elsewhere. its been years since they screwed up my bros ride so they might be good now but id still rather go with one of the better reviewed places. I had a good experience on my own ride so i took my bros car there and it was a total nightmare, they scratched the tint and tried saying it was the window that was scratched but it was obvious it wasnt and there was dust particles all over.

    Are you guys all students on a budget or something?

    Quality not the best, but the price is. I had my winter beater S-10 done limo all around. Turned out pretty good, and only charged me like $200.

    I had my car done at shadow, they forgot to plug the power window control back in, so when I took off the door panel to fix it I found a mess of duct tape behind it. The car was brand new

    Very friendly people at shadow, but after 2 weeks I've already got a corner peeling and dust in multiple spots on more than one window. It was a difficult car to do though.
