Good Tint shop

Can anyone reccomend a good tint shop in the Bay area? I prefer the TriValley, but Im willing to drive a bit farther for quality work at a good price.

If you're in livermore, you can try Omega Tintwerks in Pleasanton. I hear they do a great job for a great price.
I'm getting my 5 rear windows done there this coming tuesday. I'll try to get some pics up afterwards.

Vince at Omega Tinkwerks did an awesome job and for an awesome price. He gives discounts to forum members of certain car groups like for the s2k (he owns one), subies and evos. I'm a forum member of norcalevo.net and this is how I found out about him. Only problem is he is always busy during summer.. I had to schedule with him 2 weeks in advance.

Anyhow, I ended up getting 20% on the back 5 windows and 50% on the 4 fronts. The contrast between the two should make it less obvious that I have tinted front windows to the cops, but then again what cop is gonna bother a stock fit driving safely.

I'll post up some pics after lunch.

Here's the pics!







Depending on the lighting and angles, the contrast between the fronts and backs vary from barely noticable to "are you sure the fronts are tinted?".

I ended up paying 240 for the 9 windows. 180 for the rear 5 and originally 45 for each side of the fronts. He saw a little scratch on the drivers side film and wanted to do it over again, but I was running late so he gave me a discount for the scratch instead. I would have never noticed it if he didn't point it out though. I'll definitely go there again if I need to tint another car!
