Many eastside dealers send their cars to the Tint man. Another shop in Bellevue is Trust the Best. There is also the Darkside in Lake City.

I have three of my cars tinted by Robert at Trust the Best with excellent results. But he's also the most expensive. I paid approx. $350 for my TSX. I also got my Prelude tinted by the Darkside ($200) and the quality is acceptable with lifetime warranty. I don't have experience with the Tint man but my brother has, and happy with the result.

Darkside will do darker than legal limit but they won't give you a receipt for the work done. thus no warranty. Trust the Best will gladly offer darker than legal limit and no warranty. If you want the darker look but also want to stay legal, and even looking tint all around, then just simply tint the roof glass as well. It makes the entire interior look darker without the darker tint. I have two cars done that way.

window tint shops in Seattle WA area!?

Hello guys, i remember seeing one thread related to my question before but i didn't find any luck after 10 minutes of search, so i guess i'll just create a new thread.

i am looking for a window tint shop in Seattle,WA that is willing to do illegal window tint (<35%) and still offer the life-time warranty, any ideas?

now i have 35% on my CG / black interior TSX, it's not dark enough, i am looking for something like 15% or 10%.

also, has anyone heard of "The Darkside", it's a window tinting shop that is willing to offer what i mentioned above but they only hv either 20% or 5%, nothing in between ><

thx
