Where to go for Tint?

[redgydawedgy]

To all peeps that got the new civic.. where did you go to get yours tinted and what type of tint did you have installed? How much did it cost you. Im getting my unit this week so just wanted to get the heads up on where to take it. Im planning on just getting 3m tint.. any other choices?

Thanks

Solar gard is better than 3M in my experience. try ESL automotive near wheel gallery at Santolan

boss ESL na ba name nun i think it is the vkool shop in p. guevarra before. lumipat daw sila somewhere in santolan rd., yung windshield ng new civic is extremely big so price will be much higher than usual.

agree ako that solar gard is far better than 3M although mas madilim lang talga mga black tint nila.

I went to this shop 7flags in Pasong Tamp, Makati, owner Ms. Eden- two weeks ago to have my tint done as most stores in Singapore tint cars in an air-conditioned room to help ease off the dust. I agree on this principle but refuse to believe on the service. I had my car tinted with Polar brand which they told me was better than 3M. Fine, after a week I encountered some bubbles so I headed back there and could'nt believe that the store closed down. They charged me 12,000 pesos and they went out of business. I met the landlord who said that they left without notice and have dissapeared in thin air. I also purchased xenon lights and they gave me a warranty for both items which is now useless. Before you look for a shop, find out how long have they been there, I guess thats the first thing you ask before you decide to service your car.

After this horrible incident, surfed the web and found a store with this website http://www.lacaraccessories.com/tintroom.html

I highly recommend this shop la cars as the manager is a foreigner and they have been in business for more than 4 years. They apparently were the first tint rooms in the country and they did a great job with my cars. Their prices are just a little more but trust me, its a pay and smile for good service just like back home. They even have a customer lounge while your car is being tinted.

What? Had my tint done there last January. Bought a set of HID also. The owner of 7Flags is the father of the owner of LA Cars. Maybe he can help you about your warranty issue.
