I just got my car tinted at Auto Mall Tint Specialist today and I highly recommend everyone to this place. Sidney Lee, the owner is an awesome guy. He showed me a lot of samples of each film and was very professional and informative. All work and film carry a lifetime warranty. My car looks awesome now and I am very happy. Now I just need to fill out this Suntek lifetime warranty card and send it out... Thanks for all your help!

Heres some quick shots I took this afternoon. The film changes appearance depending on which angle you look at it and depending on the weather. Sunny days will look darker than overcast days.

Well I did actually, because there was a small dust spec in the back glass I got a huge discount. I couldnt even see it until Sid pointed it out to me. Under regular lighting I cant even see it but Sid was very professional and showed me that there was a small dust spec. He offered to redo if I wanted, but said that its impossible to get every single dust spec out. So he offered me a huge discount. For the back 3 it was $180 but because of the small dust spec (that I couldnt even see) I only paid $100!

Zero-Point: Any pics of the Suntek HP?

Sorry, I don't have any pics. The weather is so bad...I can't even wash it. I'll get some when I can.

I paid $260 for 5 w/ Suntek HP Charcoal.

For the xB I am not too sure ,but I think most factory tint/privacy glass is about 20%.

Maybe this post will help you...
