Default Tint shop recommendations

Hey guys,

I was wondering if anyone could recommend a decent tinting shop? Ideally in South Tampa/North St. Pete.

I was ready to go to Precision Tint on Dale Mabry near the AFB - great price, but apparently they just dumped their tinter, and I'm not wild about being the test case for a new guy.

Thanks,
Paul

I believe there is a pretty extensive thread/sticky on this topic.

But...I'd recommend Thee Tint Shop on Busch Blvd. I am super anal retentive when it comes to tint and Shane is the only person who I will let touch my cars. He is a great guy who does super high quality tint work. His schedule can be a bit rough and sometimes the next appointment may be a few weeks away, but he is well worth the wait.

Thanks.

I looked around, couldn't find a thread on tinting. I'll look harder.

The Audio Itch on DaleMabry. Took my car there to get my front windows tinted and they do amazing work. You also get to sit in front of a giant screen and watch a movie while you wait haha

+10000 Shane has tinited EVERY car that I have owned since 89. I've followed him around to a couple shops to get tint work done before he went into business himself.....back in the Gulf Coast Mini shop days on Hillsborough
