    Default Window Tint... best and cheapest job

    Window Tint




    Who does it the best and cheapest, lets hear some recs.




    I went to sound sensations last time, paid 270 for a full job, i feel like i pay for the name of the shop every time i go there rather then the actual work required.


    Only need the front two windows, getting them done to 20 to match the back's 20% from stock
    :::as showin in signature picture:::




    Preferably places in the Marietta / Acworth / Kennesaw Area. aka NW side of Atlanta

    Why not support a site sponsor? That's what Brett, Julio, admin and, of course I, did. With multiple cars for each of us. Later, QD.

    I would love to hear what happened with him. Organized-N-Tint did my truck two years ago and it still looks good. He would be the first person that Ive heard of who has had a bad experience with them

    Because i don't know which ones do tint, or if they do what their quality is or their pricing without going down the list calling them.


    I would rather hear the consumer's opinions, thats what matters after all...





    If i wanted to pick one out of a hat i would drive down 41 and pick the first car shop i see.

    He is in Conyers but American Shades. Top notch work, does show cars, limos, ect. For your truck looking at about $50.

    Or not. With only one "strike" on his IA record (and even that is still questionable), I don't think Nauitboi has lost ANY ground. Not only has he done cars for the above mentioned site bigwigs, but he's done all their cars. And they're all still top notch. And the prices were comparable.

    Ok. I'm a consumer, aren't I, and I just gave you an opinion that you "would rather hear."

    I've never known American Shades to be cheap. Been around for a while, but not cheap.

    Windows Xtreme off of riverside prkwy next to golden coral did my truck about 3 years ago and when I traded her in last november it was still perfect. They did it pretty quick and for like $150 for 4 windows and the back roll down window.

    What makes you think I'm not sure? I've been in Conyers probably longer than you've been alive (lolol). I'm pretty familiar with the area. American Shades has been around for years. I knew the previous owners/workers there.

    I just reread your post and what the OP wants. I will guarantee you that he won't get two windows done for $50. If not, then fucc me raw and call me Randy Reacharound. Later, QD.

    Solarworks off Alpharetta highway, kinda expensive but they did a great job. We had to get different film since the cars had the antennas built into the windows. $630 out the door for 2 cars.

    Ok I didnt know you were from the area. Yes Joel is still running the place and thats about what he charges now. It might be $60 but I doubt it will be any higher. I just had him do my truck and he has done all my other cars.
