Need tint in NoVA
 
Hey I'm looking to get my car tinted as soon as possible. I'd like a local place near Fairfax, Vienna or Arlington. Anybody have any suggestions? I can't seem to find much online.

Thanks,

Sasha

It's funny I used to tell people I was from SOVA

I attempted to help.. but came across two problems.

1. It seems most people on the east coast are new the inter-web and have no idea how to set up a forum.

2. No one in virginia seems to get their windows tinted.. ever.

I found this: http://forum.nccbmwcca.org/showthrea...highlight=TINT. Not a great find but it was the best I could do in 2 minutes.
I'd suggest doing searchs on local car club forums for region specific info on tinters.

Hey sasha, try LA Tint over in alexandria. They have a few other spots in va but here is their website and see if there is one closer to you. http://www.latint.com/

VASasha 04-21-2007 08:33 AM

Eh...i hate to say it but their website sucks and that can only mean 1 of 2 things..

1. THey are so damn focused on tinting cars that they haven't had time to focus on the website.

2. They just don't know what the hell they are doing.

...but I think I might give em a shot anyway. Know anybody that got theirs done there, Landon?

a buddy had one done a WHILE back down there but not much recently. Thats just the only tint place in VA that came to mind. If you dont mind comming into MD I would be happy to take you to my tint place and they do a kick ass job

Hi all,

Well it's not in VA, but I am very satisfied with the job D&L Window Tinting did for me. They have two locations in the Baltimore area, offer lifetime warrenty and offer an optional 3 year "everything" warrenty. Even if someone picks a hole in it, or pulls it up, they will replace it free.

They can also do some wild custom work. Here is Roxy's rear window. The butterfly is three layers of tint film custom hand cut and layed in.

I had mine done at D&L last year. Did a great job, worth the trip.

I had mine tinted at LA Tint in Sterling. They did perfect work. I could not find a flaw.

bottoms up 04-24-2007 08:49 AM

just about everyone ive talked to is saying la tint too

dbullock 04-24-2007 09:19 AM

My car is in the shop, but I could send you closeup photos if you like. Their work makes the tint look like factory work.

dbullock 04-28-2007 12:16 PM

LA Tint of Sterling.

I think is was the Ultimate tint and 50% front-sides and 35% rear and rear-sides.

Car was dirty when I took the closeup shots but they give you an idea of the quality of work.
