View Full Version : Downtown suggestions for tinting? I know Shaded Days in LF... The Turtle 08-04-2005, 05:29 AM but is there anywhere downtown, this sun is killing me! E-Tard 08-04-2005, 10:03 AM So I will give you a free upgrade if you need a car, and if I am in the office obviously. ///Mike@Boston Audi 08-04-2005, 10:22 AM carbonLORD 08-04-2005, 10:27 AM Had both my A6's doe there, 35% and 20% currently, $250 for all the windws (except the windshield obviously). 3M has a lifetime warranty against fading, peeling, cracking or bubling which is why I went with the carbon based window film. Cant remember the name of the shop but they are on Lake just a block and a half west of Halsted. Forget Shady Days and the rest of the burbs, not necessary and out of the way for us city folk ;) carbonLORD 08-04-2005, 10:28 AM Looks like this girl we call Kat, but she does not have bolt-ons (at least last I checked). carbonLORD 08-04-2005, 10:31 AM ///Mike@Boston Audi 08-04-2005, 10:38 AM Can you see noticable bubling there? carbonLORD 08-04-2005, 10:41 AM I know the effect that you are talking about, but its not been an issue for me. ///Mike@Boston Audi 08-04-2005, 11:06 AM tinting places on Lake and came up with nothing. BlueCarDude 08-04-2005, 11:41 AM Adam Mucha 312.953.1028 adam@autotinting-rockguard.com www.autotinting-rockguard.com same dude did my car. he works out of a number of locations around the city. hit him up directly and see where he can do this close to you. recommended!!! ///Mike@Boston Audi 08-04-2005, 11:45 AM DaveyKid 08-04-2005, 11:46 AM DaveyKid 08-04-2005, 11:48 AM DaveyKid 08-04-2005, 01:52 PM djillusion 08-04-2005, 03:58 PM dont want to drop more than $200 to get this done though. ///Mike@Boston Audi 08-04-2005, 06:33 PM adhesion. Others cut the film around them so there's no bubbling, but also no film in that area. Depending on the car and tint, that can be a hit or miss. Then also on some cars I've seen the tint stick perfectly to the dots with nothing having been done to them.

I do not recommend that procedure. Some places also use pinch weld primer and others use lettering vinyl to cover the matrix. All are done to cover a fact of life. Matrix never will look like the rest of the glass. Shaded Days installs the film in a manor that makes it 100% reversable. At some point in time, you or the next guy may not want that film on the car. This is important to keep in mind. |
