    Default Window Tinting

    Where is the best place around Columbia? Want to get the front truck windows darkened to match the rear in my truck.

    The wife just got the winders in her Camry done real dark. She got a prescription from her doc due to a skin condition that makes her real sensitive to UV light, so she got 'em at least one tint level less than "legal". Seems like they did a good job, but it's only been 4-5 days, so I can't speak to longevity.

    Pro Tint, I think, over on Hwy 1 near Barnyard Flea Market. They had a coupon on Groupon or something that she used ($150 for the car).

    Sounds like both Mr Tint or Palmetto Pro Tint do good work. Any bad experiences with either?

    Mike at Solar Solutions in Lexington. They use the good stuff. Had one car for 7 years and the tint didnt fade or turn purple.

    No matter who you decide to do your tinting, make sure it's authentic 3M tint.

    Mike is a great guy To do business with. Hell get ya a drink(soda or water) while you wait. Him and Courtney do an excellent job and I have referred no less than twenty people to him and all were very satisfied. I wouldn't take anything to pro tint that I valued. Take that for what it's worth. I also donate to his kids charity golf tournament every year. Team Levi!!

    Tinting windows is childish?

    WTF?

    Call me a kid all you want, but it preserves the interior, keeps the A/C from working harder, and it just makes it more pleasurable to drive because the sun isn't beaming in from all angles.

    Just because your ole lady won't let you tint the windows on her yuppie mobile doesn't mean that the rest of us can't enjoy tinted winders.
