Recommend where I can get professional tinting done in MARYLAND?

I'm looking to tint the windows in both of my vehicles. Are there any quality shops in Maryland that specialize in this field and do a great job around the defroster area with no bubbles and use high quality tint?

Thanks for the input.

We just went around on this topic a couple of weeks ago. Here's the link for the previous discussion. If you're in the DC area, there are a couple of shops listed here. I went to Winners to get mine done and I'm happy with their work. I'm planning on putting the moleskins in myself.

I'm in Baltimore. Liberty Rd. is close. Have they been in business a long time? What brand film do they use? I'm very concerned with not having bubbles, film fading, turning purple, and looking professional around the dot matrix and defroster lines.

If you wanna make the drive to COLLEGE PARK, MD go to http://www.freshdesignsinc.com/, they finished my tint withing 20 to 30 mins, no bubbles, professionally done work, and they use GLOBAL TECH FILM, I got 20% all around, and I can still see very well at night.
The shop owner is Doug, he's very cool guy. If you're up there you can check out some of the other cars they work on.

Shop # (301) 982-2110
Fax# (301) 982-3033

if you're in Baltimore area, go to EIP in Westminster.. Personal Touch on Liberty is in the business for at least 5 years, but I wasn't too happy with their job on my prev car (Maxima). You know that place and the other just next to it (J&Js) is too ghetto I would not trust them with my 30K- car.

oh no, there from my camera, the 3rd pic, I set it at a different lighting that's all, but global tech films are very nice in color along with somewhat glare I guess you can say....but it's not metallic, they do have metallic available if you're intrested...

I put mine on after the tint, I didn't roll them down for a week waiting for the moleskin kit to come in....I don't know about you being a high roller or not but I can't afford to get scratched tint hahaha

I recommend Driven Dynamics in Rockville. I've referred about 6 people there, including 3-4 TSX's. Very professional and lifetime warranty on the film, which is 3M by the way. Even after 3 months when I saw a bubble, I took it back and they fixed the film for free.

Agreed - they are the only place I go to now. My brother and a few others have become repeat customers after my recommendation as well.

Very aggressive pricing on a TL - I just called, and may be there next week.
