    I've been looking throughout this forum and couldn't find anything about getting your car tinted. Any links on here? Any suggestions from the peanut gallery? Thanks.

    I second Lance - he's awesome. He did my 2013 and he's doing my 2015 tomorrow as a matter of fact.

    I went to the tint guys in Woodstock recently to get my 2013 done. Very happy with it. I think it was like $280 with tax and all that jazz for 3M color stable.

    It's off Main St just south of 92. It is kind of down off the road so maybe we're talking about the same place. Not sure.

    Here's a pic:

    Just got the tint done with Lance of TinkFreaks. Great job. Got 35% all the way around as well as my sun roof. Subtle, but effective so far.

    For those up north, Solar Control in Cumming did a nice tint job for me.

    I'm wanting to get only my front windshield tinted. Looking for at least 50%. I know not all shops will do it. Anyone know which ones will, particularly in the Marietta area

    The Tint Guy in Woodstock will do it. They only use high quality 3M film

    they advertise that, but be careful, there is online reviews about them vending another product, one with presumably better markup margins, and not volunteering that information to the customer in a prompt fashion.

    make sure you ask in detail. I will when I goto them. still broke, tho...

    If you are on a budget, K&L Tint in Norcross is hard to beat. I believe they use Suntek tint and they do a great job. They dont offer lifetime warranty anymore but do offer a 5 year warranty. I have taken two cars to them and they were usually done within an hour and the work is always top notch.

    I just got every piece of glass on a legacy wagon tinted including windshield and sunroof in ceramic tint from three tinters in norcross. I spend a total of $439 and in all honesty it was a hell of a deal. My car doesnt get hot inside even with black leather unless its in the sun for more than 6 hours straigt. Even then it takes the car 5 minutes to be ice cold even with the 130k mile compressor.
