WTB: Tint job

[Incomplete057]

wheres a cheap place to get good tint?

[DrewS2K]

depends on where your located

[Incomplete057]

Marietta,Smyrna,Kennesaw

[DrewS2K]

dont know any places up there

[4bangin]

What type of car? I am 10 minutes from Kennesaw and could do it. $100 for most cars, $120 for large SUVS, trucks are cheaper. PM me if youd like.

[tluve69]

I have about 250' of 35% if interested. id do it for 60bux if you are still looking.

[Turbodude06]

^^^ damn u two are cheap as shit I would charge $165 for an integra.....

[ksinao]

any good places in the gwinnett area. preferably south gwinnett, loganville/snellville/lilburn/ etc

[Hektik]

in lilburn area... on the intersection of 29 and jimmy carter there is a tint place right in front of the homedepot.. i would highly reccomend them... prices are decent and they give a lifetime gaurantee....just got my wifes accord done there and it look better than the tint on my car.lol.

[Incomplete057]

preciate it, its for an integra and needs to be 20% black

[EvasiveEF9]

Check AudioTrix. They do good work, and lifetime warranty. I know the guys personally, they're good people.

[nautiboi73]

we come highly recommended and not because we are a site sponsor but because we do good quality work at a good price.
or maybe it is the IA discounts lol

we use quality products so there is no way we could stay in business doing $100 tint jobs .

is the teg the car in question? PM me for a quote.

OH yea but we don't do any illegal work so no 20%. the fees and jail time aint worth it.

[Incomplete057]

sorry, need 20%.....thanks though, yes its the teg in the sig....

[IntegraXTR]

so yall don't tint anything under 35%? goodluck

[tluve69]

I would have charged 150 IF I still had my own shop, I sold it about 2years ago before moving down here. The only reason I said 50 is because I still like to do side jobs on the weekends and the roll of tint I have (250' of 35%) is left over from a few co-workers cars I did a while back as wellas my truck. You can go lower than 35% on the rear doors and rer glass BUT I got a 95.00 ticket in my truck so I pulled my front doors and lowered them to 35% still dark enough and looks fine soit your call but I too agree with nautiboi it is deff. not worth the hassle fine after fine.....

[Incomplete057]

I had it in a couple cars, I'll get the tickets, ill pay them, just want 20%

[Turbodude06]

yea and if you get three of them you automatically loose your license too

[tluve69]

well if you want 20 go to advance and get two boxes of 2% and then hit me up. youll have 20 in the boxes together an Id change 40 for the labor

[SLo_MKIII]

how much wud u charge for a 98 volvo s70??? has 4 full size windows and 2 lil ones in the back like a coupe wud have lmk

[NiNJA323]

I'm interested in 35% tint all around on my EG hatchback...got 20% on it right now but its peeling off and some of it has been ripped off so there is tint missing in some spots on my windows.

how much?

[preferredduck]

there is a good place in winder, they use sunguard tint, which is what i have and i love it, its hard to scatch b/c of the thickness and they are very good on pricing. they will do a good job as well. 678-425-0584. call em if u like.

[lilguy]

what's the law on tints in GA? i wanna get mine 5%

[green91]

35% is the legal limit. if you wanna come around the gainesville area i have a tinter i can recommend for you.

[tluve69]

law is 35 on driver and passenger door, and front windshield. the rear can be 5% SOME cops will screw with you if there is a 4door car and the rear doors are darker than 35 but I dont think the law is 35 on them though....

[green91]

i believe the law is changed, its 35% all around now and any tint other than factory on windshield is illegal

[slowredteg]

ots installations on arcado rd. they charge $165 or $170 for a teg but they do a damn good job and have a lifetime guarantee for any % tint. they tint for a lot of the dealerships around the atlanta. not that its important but the pple who work there are part of team e.c.i. and do some badass work on custom install jobs and shit like that if anyone is interested.

[EvasiveEF9]

Reps please, for this AWESOME and RELIABLE and ACCURATE information...

I even highlighted the important shit for you...

Basically, if it's a personal vehicle, 32% (+/-3%) on front two windows. No laws on tine for rear window and rear side windows. Windshield MAY NOT be tinted. No lettering is legal on windshield unless it is no more than six inches from top of windshield an is transparents.

[tluve69]

well I guess I better stop doing this, now you got me scared. about the only thing I can tell you NAUTIBOI is to go fuck yourself. CLEARLY the dude asking for 20% knew exactly what I meant when I said 2% meaning 20% TYPO asshole. as for all the BS "legal" shit your posting some is good info BUT it was resolved WAY before you decided to repost and add you two cents in, if someone brings you the tint and you install it no biggie. NO PROOF of that specific shop installing it due to the brand of tint, and as well they will never issue a reciept!! Thanks for all the good advice and if ANYONE else is looking to get hooked up hit me up

Hey, jackass, read my post. It's a direct copy from the lawbooks. And if you read...mine says EXACTLY what yours says.
Goodjob! :goodjob:

[nautiboi73]

NO PROOF of that specific shop installing it due to the brand of tint, and as well they will never issue a reciept!!

Hack:lmfao: Brand of tint means nothing, i sell three brands but only advertise my Major manufacture. who cares what brand it is if it is illegal. You will have no valid warranty with any company.
and if you read close it states that no one shall install the material not sell it. you can sell it all you want as long as you don't install it.

(e) No person shall install any material upon the windshields or windows of any motor vehicle, the installation of which would result in a reduction of light transmission or an increase in light reflectance in violation of subsection (b) of this Code section.

I am sure the IRS would be thrilled to know that a so called Legitimate Business is doing work without a record of that sale, income. I think that can be called TAX Evasion.
Remember the IRS is the only agency that could take AL Capone down. you think they won't get at you if they wanted?

I have been in business for going on 9 years, problem free, you think i want to jepodize that over any tint job? We are true Proffessinals and we Act and don business accordingly.
WE DON'T WANT NO PROBLEMS.

I didn't do any interpreting, though. That's a direct copy from the book (what I posted) now, perhaps it's in one of the subsections OF that article..? I dont' know, I'll have to look it up later...

[Incomplete057]

I posted this to find a tint job not hear everybody bitchin......go the hell on with that shit.....

[EvasiveEF9]

Not bitching. Just discussing what the laws are. It's good to know knowledge. If you don't like it, get the hell off IA with only 670 posts. Once you reach around at least 1K posts, you'll start learning how IA is.

will you tint the front windshield with 35% as well? or is that illegal?

[quickdodge®]

The whole windshield cannot be tinted. Only 6" down from the top. Later, QD.

[EvasiveEF9]

Sometimes you can get the windshield tinted "for offroad purposes only" under the table...but I'd advise against it. ESPECIALLY anything darker than 35. Makes your vision at night rough, especially when it rains. And if the tint has ANY wrinkles in it...you're fucked.
