"Luis is awesome! He’s really friendly and knows his stuff when it comes to helping you pick the right tint for your truck. The finished tint always looks perfect—his work is top-notch. He’s quick but doesn’t cut corners, and his customer service is spot-on. Booking an appointment is super easy, too. If you’re thinking about getting your windows tinted, this is the place to go! Highly recommend!"

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.
