I got my tint done at Eazy Auto Care on Rt. 1 in Laurel, MD. They did a GOOD job on my car, and did the tint close to the edge of the window like I wanted it.

I got 20% sides, 35% rear, and got a rear sunshade through Solar E-clipse (mach1) for the rear if I want more privacy and shade. I got 35% on rear so if pulled over, they can see in the car (DC doesn't allow tint lower than 50%, which is nothing!!)

I got my rear sunshade through http://www.autoshades.com/ .

And the price was great, $140 total including tax. I would def get another car tinted through them, and they can do it while you wait if you call them up and arrange a time-

Eazy Auto Care
13549 Baltimore Ave.
Laurel, MD 20707
(301) 210-0800

It's not in NoVa, but make an excuse to go up there for something, get your car tinted and roll to Baltimore for a beer or something-----

I told the guy who tinted my car that I wanted the tint close to the edge, I don't know if that had anything to do with it, but he did what I asked, and did a good job. Gave the tinter $10-

Hope that helps. Cdrink80, if you go somewhere else and get good results, let me know!! Living in DC I gotta strip my tint off my cars every 2 years to pass inspection, and then get them re-done--------- Thanks-

A few members here and myself have gone to National Glass Tinting in Kensington, MD. They did a great job on my car and my brother's Jeep.

301-946-8584...ask for Marc (owner) and mention David w/ the Black Acura Coupe sent ya. I got a hooked up price of about $129 since other CLs went there and recommended them to me. Maybe you will too!

I got mine done at LA Tint in Sterling (goto www.latint.com for more info). The guy there had done quite a few TLs and people had recommended him based on the fact that he was able to tint over the dot matrix without any problems. The Formula One tint that they use is good stuff too. I got 35% all around and I haven't had any complaints about it!

I don't remember how much I paid ... It was somewhere around $250 though for the "Formula One Ultimate" tint, which is their top of the line tint.

You can checkout pics of my tint on my webpage:

It doesn't look all that dark because I have a lighter interior, and I only got 35% all around..
