"This guy really knows his stuff and puts in All the time and care in the world to take care of the car, the integrity that he has is the reason why I’m gonna keep on coming back to this place for every single car in my family. The windows look great and I see no type of bubbling or creasing that’s happening in there and the comfort knowing that I can come back to him if something does come up makes every penny worth it and it’s not even a lot of pennies!!"

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

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.
