anybody know of any shops in the south bay area that use madico onyx tint? im looking to retint my car and was wondering if ne one has any hookups on madico tint.

 

i know a guy around san jose that does it pretty well lifetime warranty with a tint cutting machine.

 

I dunno if mine is Madico... but I recall it said Onyx Tint. I got it from I think it was called California Tint on Monterey near Pullman Way in the Automotive Plaza/Center. His tint still on my car and still looks great since 2003 with lifetime warranty. Old asian man and a mexican helper guy.

 

Is California tint good on dot matrix windows? I dont like how my friends BMW had bubbles on the dot matrix. Though only noticable close up.

 

On my car there was minor problems... probably same as your friends. My brother's car (RSX-S) he did some black vinal under the matrix to prevent bubbling and to prevent interference from the metal based tint on the embedded antenna in our glass.

It looks a whole lot cleaner and his radio works better than mine cuz of that. Dunno if you want to deal with that or if he has a better technique after almost 8 years now.

 

is that omega tintwerkz guy still around? He tinted my front windows on my CL and did a pretty damn good job with no fading and he knew how to tint over the dot matrix

edit: just looked him up and realized his shop is literally across the st from where I work if anyone ever goes to him and doesnt want to wait in his waiting room LMK and we can go smash around in some BMWs

 

justin, how much does he charge??? do u have contact info?

I seen the work Rocky Mountain Tint in Livermore did on that area. Came out great. Not sure if they are still around.

 

shoot i might hit them up for a job, if the price is right..i want to take off all my existing tint and go 20% all the way around (currently rockin 5% rear 3 windows and 30% front 2 windows)

 

vince isnt cheap but does good work.. i've referred over 5 cars to him myself

 

Extreme Tint
2756 Scott Boulevard
Santa Clara, CA 95050-2521

They charge $250 for all 5 windows. Madico Onyx tint.

They're a nice group of Filipinos. Make sure you let the old man or Romel do it. They do a better job than the girl.

 

i forget, but it wasnt anything TOO crazy. Just call him up and get a quote, should be real quick.

 

yip...n ive referred quite a few cars there too...

hes started to wrap cars....n does a damn good job at it as well

 

Anyone know how much Vince omega tintwerkz charge?

I need the 7 windows on my Evo IX tinted 35% all around.

 

I just called julius and wanted to ask how much it would cost for hood to be wrapped in matte black since steve mentioned he does wrap now also LOL

 

How much is it for 7 windows?

I will also need clearbra for my Voltex bumper next month.

 

guess who's back in town

 

sweet thanks bro! thats a damn good price!

 

welcome back Vimal aka Mr LED!!!

 

HBD viet

 

it depends which version you get....home premium, professional, ultimate, etc.

haha

 

 

Just spoke with Vince & he said around $325 julius...

 

just called up vince to get a quote for my GF's 08 civic coupe. He said with the dot matrix in the back, it's $180 for the back three windows and $240 for all 5. He said he normally charges like $45 per front window. So i guess just use that as a basis/starting point

 

damn $325 for 7 windows

 

that sounds pretty good..i wonder if he charges to remove tint
i'll try to give him a call tomorrow or next week..

 

i got my rim in for the bug...15x10...hopefully itll clear the front fender...if it does...then im gona b fitting 15x12 in the rear...

FYI gona b powdercoated a different colour

 

i like how you buy a wheel before you even have a car lined up to buy

 

thats how i roll son...lol...found a 57 oval for sale for 3500...but im going to go look at a 71 2nite for 2200

 

57 oval any day over a 71.

Oh, and if you get the 71, you better get new wheels. lol. Those won't fit.

lol...actually since we were already in fremont...i called the 57 oval(east SJ) n i saw it too...it had 2 flats in the rear...but he started it up...it was a beauty...im already in the middle of transferring funds to get it next week

- 1600cc
- converted 12v
- narrowed beam, 3 inch cut
- absolutley no rust
- straight body
- all lights and blinkers work
- does have 2 small dents
- has little travel on suspension
- probably want to raise rear end up
- recently raised front end up 2 inches since pics were taken
- 2 new rear tires
- no headliner or door panels
- original rubber floor mats in good shape
- all door handles and window handles
- may want to re-cover seats

 

wow!!! you're FINALLY going to get one!!!! OMG mang! congrats i guess would be in order! at least you bought the ONE rim for something then..haha

 

At least it has the "W" deck lid and egg tails still. Normally, the 57's had the bullet turn signals in the front fenders. Those might be spendy to get, but well worth it. Looks like it was a true wolfsburg edition too. Has the crest on the hood right? Doesn't look too bad though. You never know about body work until you take the sucker down to the metal. Nothing that can't be fixed! Get it!!

 

nice stevo

 

i stopped reading there

 

Probably just needs a shorter shock. That's not low at all right there.

 

 

yea im giving him a deposit 2morow morning...then picking it up mid next week...

yea the turn signals r rare...found them for $50 per...n its like smaller than an iphone...crazy...

but im gona b swapping out the bumpers for a mid 66s with the row bars on it...i like those more n then two 4 inch yellow fogs up front n center

headlites r gona b hids n h4 fogs
