I'm not cool enough to do the "+1" emoticon, but you want to go to Winners. Those people do great jobs. Just go to the shop and look at the wall-o-tinted. (diablos, 996's, evos, etc). And they support us with ground beef and tents!!!25rsfun wrote:anyone know a good tint shop in northern virginia?

Re: good tint shop in nova?
I have heard very good things about TNT Tinting in Alexandria. They got all 5 stars on yelp with at least 10 reviews. It is a one person shop, he quoted me ~ $230 for a 2011 WRX 5 dr.. Any one heard different?

Re: good tint shop in nova?
it's been a good few years since I've had a tint jerb done.
i generally tend to trust yelp reviews in this area though.

L.A. Tint is great but pricey b/c they use Llumar. Solar Solutions in Laurel does a great job with Suntek and is a LOT more affordable. I've had several cars done at each and have zero complaints.

just be sure you'll pass any inspections you might need. DC made me remove my tint because it was 5% too dark. (45% vice 50%).

Re: good tint shop in nova?
If you go to winners, please check the work thoroughly before leaving. They cut a piece of the rubber seal on my window when they did my replacement tint. The first time they tinted my car it was fabulous but this next time around it wasn't as fab. When I noticed the sliced seal I didnt call because honestly it was quite a drive from old town. Thats all I have to say. But the discount was nice and I have the warranty thingy on the tints.

I wasn't happy about the tint but now I drive about once a month so rarely think about it.
