I would want the all metal tint, whether we go to LA Tint or California Tint. It is the best type of tint, it never fades. I also checked out both of their websites, LA Tint costs $10 more when you chose their best tint.

www.latint.com -$249

www.californiatint.com -$240

Did you specify what type of tint you wanted with each place?

Well I put my phone number up and nobody has called me yet. I've called the place and got the prices and still no contacts. I'm not sure what else I'm supposed to do.

The thing about CL is our back windshield has dots in upper area. This guy actually spray-painted from inside so from outside it looks pitch-black. Wish I can put up some pics for you guys, but I dont' know how. Let me know if you are willing to travel and get this done.
what's the name of the place?

My 97 3.0CL. With that 15% in the back do you have you flip down your rear view mirror or is the tint dark enough?
