I need recommendations to get my windows tinted on my 08 SE. I live in the Diamond Bar/Hacienda Height area. Looking for shops with high quality.
Any help would truly be appreciated....Thanks

I need to get mine retinted because my tint started bubbling roughly 2 days after install. I kept bringing it back to Mazz Autosport (Soundwaves) and all they did was try to sell me the same set of wheels every time I came back. Then they said the original installer of my window tint had left and there was nothing else they could do to fix it. I would advise you NOT to go to Mazz Autosport on Las Tunas.

^^After the original installer left, a different guy tried scraping the bubbles out to no avail. Then the manager said that there was nothing left that they could do so my only option would be to pay the full price and get it installed a second time. I don't want to waste any more time with those guys, so I'll probably just go to the shop on Mission and Rosemead, and get it done the right way.

Eh, I'd take that up with the Better Business Bureau. Trying to "scrape out the bubbles" sounds like crap. They should've replaced that entire window tint free of charge. Its not your fault that they hired a guy who didn't know what the hell he was doing, and you shouldn't have to pay for it. You paid for quality work.

Glaring blue HID bulbs are NOT classy, and don't make your car look nice, no matter what that kid in the Civic told you.

Send me a private message. I'll tell you where I had mine done. I live near you. The Tint Place is in Montclair. They guarantee their work for the life of you car if you the the most premium tint.

The tint is electronically cut at the shop where I go. No manually cutting the tint to fit your window. I've had my tint for a lil over two years now... no problems. The place that I go to is in the corner of Holt and Central. AAA Glass/Solar Tint. Ask for Jen. I'll try to get the number... it's in my cell phone. Send me a PM.

I will always use Doug at Tint Perfection, phone number 949-646-8468. He is in Foothill Ranch which is about 40 minutes from you.

He is super detail oriented and does an excellent job. So far I have had 5 cars tinted by him and every one has turned out perfectly. Sometimes if you have a garage and aren't too far away, he can come out to your house and tint your car in your own garage (but you will have to work out those details with him).

I went to Tint Master City in Canoga Park. Pretty good service and price, and I'm happy with my tint.

This was last year price. For gen 5 (7 windows), 120 for regular and 140 for glossy one (cash). Not sure what you meant on rear window tinting...
