Hey Alex,

Allen (ALMO) and Torey (E55amg) took me to a place right on the corner of 29 and 28 in Centreville, VA across the street from IHOP where one of the MVC Videos was located. Shop doesn't look like much from the outside, but they did a fairly great job on my car and clean work. No issues.....knock on wood.

LA Tint in Manassas is pretty good. They will do ANY level of tint you want, but if you go below 50% they won't give you a receipt. I managed to eke out 35% w/ a receipt though. I want 20% now that I'm so used to 35%...

I found these guys on Craigslist. They claim to use 3M Film, which is the best film by far. Went there, got 20% done. http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/n...691492366.html So far so good, and I got a receipt too. There are many ads on CL. I've noticed, you can haggle around with their prices when you call. They tend to always drop by $20 at least if not more if you tell them there are others doing cheaper. Or you can also use the $20 to one up your film.

AutoMoto, right across the bridge in Maryland, does vinyl wraps. Two friends of mine own the place, and from what I've seen, they do really high quality work on lots of high end cars.

I had my tint done at Quality Tire in woodbridge. Great job, and 4 years later it's still in pristine condition. They offer a lifetime warranty on the job against bubbles, peeling, and fading. Mine is at 20% and looks just as good today as the day I got it.

Give them a call and ask for Ken, he owns the place, drives a widebody NSX you may have seen around.
