"Freddy Orozco: I recently brought my ‘23 4Runner into Detail Concierge for a ceramic coating service, along with paint correction and window tinting, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the moment I walked in, the team was incredibly professional and welcoming. They took the time to explain the entire process, ensuring I understood each step and what to expect. The experts are clearly experienced and knowledgeable. They handled my vehicle with great care and attention to detail, and the results speak for themselves. The paint correction brought out the depth and shine of the color, and the ceramic coating has given my 4Runner a stunning, glossy finish that looks showroom-new. The window tinting was also done with precision, enhancing both the appearance and comfort of my vehicle. Overall, the quality of work at Detail Concierge is top-notch. I’m thrilled with the results and highly recommend their services to anyone looking to protect and enhance their vehicle's appearance. You won’t be disappointed!"

Window Tinting Laws in California

Front Windshield:Non-reflective tint above AS-1 line
Front Side Windows:Must allow 70% of light to pass through
Back Side Windows:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
Rear Window:Must allow 35% of light to pass through
California's strict car window tinting laws require front side windows to have at least 70% VLT (Visible Light Transmission), keeping them relatively clear. Back side and rear windows can have any darkness level. Windshield tint is limited to the top 4 inches. California prohibits red, amber, and blue tinting, and reflectivity cannot exceed standard window levels. Dual side mirrors are required with tinted back windows. Professional window tinting services ensure compliance while providing heat rejection for California's sunny climate.

Please note that window tinting laws may change. Always verify current regulations with your automotive window tinting provider to ensure compliance.
