"I couldn’t be happier with my experience at Legend 7!! Joey is one of the most helpful and kind shop owners I've ever met, and all the staff and mechanics are all extremely skilled and hospitable. They helped me choose the perfect color for my new car and it’s absolutely stunning and even better than I could've ever imagined. The attention to detail is unreal, every single edge and curve was wrapped absolutely flawlessly. I love how my car looks so much that I find excuses to drive it every chance I get. The whole process was smooth, professional, and a pleasure from start to finish. Come here if you want spectacular service at a phenomenal price!!"

"I brought my Tesla Model X Plaid here to get full front PPF and tinting. Jesus and his team did a fabulous job despite the car being 2 years old and never had PPF. He made sure the car was polished and deteriorated before applying the film. They definitely put hard work and effort into turning the car into even more beauty! Also the pricing is phenomenal! I got quoted from other shops but definitely got the best deal here at Paint Advancement! I highly recommend this shop!"

"Toyz Detail Studio is the best car window tinting place you can possibly go to in the Orange County area. I went in to tint 3M Color Stable for my Tesla Model 3 right after I picked up my car. I was looking for high grade films for a while and finally found them here. They were authorized for so many brands for choices including 3M, LLumar and Xpel and their prices were pretty fair even if they use better quality films."

Back side and rear windows can have any darkness level. Windshield tint is limited to the top 4 inches.
