    Mario R.

    Unlike all the recent reviews I had a bad experience with the tint job. After the first tint job I had to bring my car back in due to scratches, one air bubble, and a lot of dirt contamination. I brought my car for a 2nd time to get all but the driver window redone. When I got the car back he forgot to do the passenger window, but did all the other windows requested. One thing he did was mismatch the tint. He put an entirely different tint making my car windows have different tints. Still with a lot of scratches, some dirt contamination and air bubbles that weren't fixed from the passenger window. I tried to get a refund/partial refund, because I'm not going to have to my car sit for another day 10am-5pm, but he doesn't offer any. You get what you pay for, but here it's still a hefty $300 that I am out on. If you want a tint I'd suggest going somewhere else. I'll add some screenshots of the windows and the mismatch of the tints.

    Broken property without my knowledge

    If I can give 0 stars I would. I came in here to seek help to install my new radio and camera. I was immediately helped by "Hugo", his real name is Alejando. He installed it the very day I dropped of my car to him. I came back to a gap, cords coming out that prevented me to use my sliding compartment , damaged property without my knowledge ( I had to find out and ask him what happened) and the AC unit was not working properly. Also, he told me the camera worked but that it was just black. I told him to REMOVE it and HE CUT IT! After I told him I was not satisfied with his work he started talking about irrelevant things that had nothing to do with my car. The only thing I was satisfied with was that my radio was working! He insisted to give me a free camera and install everything correctly, everything was supposed to be installed correctly the first time! I demanded my money back because I did not feel comfortable with him working on my car. Then he said, " money is nothing to me." He never accepted the fact that what he did was wrong nor apologized for it. I would go anywhere but here.

    Came here since 2018 and recommended people to come here, I was excited that I Got a new car and took it here BUT they scratched up my new car. Update: the owner helped me out with the problem

    Just did an absolute butcher of a job installing tint on my new ford ranger. I went back to get my money since I was very upset with the crappy workmanship and quality of material he uses. Dude said basically let me redo it or else kick rocks. Problem is he always needs to redo it because he is lazy and a Borracho. He will tell you it's ceramic then just install plain Amazon black film. You suck Hugo and so does your business. Another client lost....

    Hugo at first was soo nice showing me and my friend the quality about windows and prices we decided to get package of $400 for a 2020 Honda Accord windows 30% and 35% hugo told us to wait 2 weeks so the bubbles and Scratches can go away but waiting just got the windows worse and it turned out we had to go back and he had them redone, he had the car for 8 hours to see the same results and once again we went back and again same problem , we went to another place to get 2 windows done by other person and it was an embarrassment for them to tell us that the type of material they used was so cheap! I called Hugo to see what can we do at least refund me the half of the money or anything but all he said was go ahead and report me "I'll see you there" so 3 times getting the windows tinted and all those times the windows were bad Not only that he was drunk on work site disrespecting my friend calling her names saying we were complaining too much but of course who wouldn't complain after paying $400 and not getting the work done right !

    I was visiting family in San Jose I decided to tint my windows cause the drive there wasn't the best with the sun hitting my face I couldn't handle the drive back to LA with out tint found this place close to my hotel I thought to give it a try ! Best place for tint, great costumer service. I took my Chevy traverse for ceramic tint Hugo gave me a great deal, and my car looks amazing I recommend this place 100%

    This is the second time I've come! The first time to get all 4 of my windows and the second because my car got broken into. He was so nice he gave me a discount after he heard what happened. My friend recommended me the first time and after such a good experience, of course it was my first choice. He has really good prices! I called at about noon to make an appointment and I was able to get his help the same day! Today!

    LIFETIME WARRANTY is BS, be aware. Few years ago they did tinting on my Mercedes Benz C250 and I was told that this has a "LIFETIME WARRANTY". Two of the windows tint got messed up over past few months. I called them and he said you can come over here and we'll take a look at it. I wend there 2 days ago and to my surprise he told me that there is no warranty on the tint!!! He told me that there is a $400 charge to tint all four windows even though I had the receipt!!!! He said the only thing I can do for you is not to charge you $150 for removing them. What do you really think people are stupid??! just because I came with a Mercedes that means I pay $400 for 4 Windows. This was supposed to be " LIFETIME WARRANTY". I really want to know how many more years you're going to have this business with this kind of customer service and attitude.

    This passenger window get a pass.

    My appointment was on a sat he was 15 to 20 min late after our initial agreement on 310 he got me up to 400 that this tint keep the heat out blah blah. Dropped off car at 10am. I called twice at 3pm no answe got a ride over. He said why did i come yhe car wasnt going to be ready till 6pm. Literally all day. My ride left. I called another ride left at 530. I had 2 missed calls from him. Once i get to the business with my 3rd ride. He asked why i didnt answer the phone n the guy who gad the tint was in a car accident n my car was not touched. To leave it overnight which i refused. I had ti come back on Sunday. He made me leave a deposit. Took a picture of my id not sure why. I came back 3 min late getting off the freeway he callede if i was making it. The audacity picked up my car wauting 5 days and i got what was on the pictures after all that. Not professional at all! He also threw away my parking sticker which i told him i needed. I want my money back which he refuses to give! Terrible treatment not professional. Get it together id give a -10 if i could

The front desk staff was courteous and genuinely helpful -- they even showed me a few real cars with different tint shades before I made my decision. What I appreciated most was the zero-pressure approach. No unnecessary upselling, just honest suggestions and clear explanations. They were also very responsive over email and answered all my questions before I even visited the shop. After the tinting, the difference was immediately noticeable -- my wife and kid no longer complained about the scorching heat during daytime drives. Too early to comment on long-term durability, but so far everything looks excellent. I'll probably update this review again after a year, but at this point I'm very happy with the work.

    From start to finish, working with Mr. Tint was an absolute pleasure. I initially reached out…read morethrough Yelp and was blown away when they sent a detailed quote via email within just a few hours. Not only that, they followed up with an additional email inviting me to reach out with any questions about the tinting or PPF options. Amazing customer service. The quote itself was extremely professional and thorough. Each tint option included detailed explanations of coverage, UV blocking capabilities, and how the different films perform. This was very helpful especially if you aren't as familiar with tint options. You can tell they value helping customers make informed decisions. When I emailed back with questions, their consultants responded promptly and even suggested popular tint and different PPF combinations to help guide us that fit our budget. Then when we came in for our vehicle dropoff, the front desk staff showed us examples of what each tint would actually look like on our windows. That hands-on visual made all the difference and helped us confidently choose the perfect tint for the front of our Tesla. We dropped the car off at 8:30am, and they completed everything within two full business days since we decided to do both tint and PPF. At pickup, they did a thorough walkthrough to make sure we were completely satisfied and explained everything clearly. They even schedule a follow-up appointment in a few weeks to ensure there are no issues with the tint or PPF. That level of accountability and care is very rare. We couldn't be happier with the results and the entire experience. Mr. Tint delivers professionalism, communication, quality workmanship, and outstanding customer service from beginning to end. We highly recommend Mr. Tint! We'll definitely be back for any future tinting and/or PPF

I found Elite Window Tint on Yelp and contacted Jose to get a quote and evaluation. It was actually an easy selection process as Jose seemed very honest and with a fantastic attention to detail. He was also the only one in the area with the STEK PPF I wanted. Right after picking up my car, I dropped it off at Elite for a 10-day makeover. Jose and Jonathan did a masterful job of prepping the paint and windows. The PPF was installed (nearly) perfectly, and they have been very very responsive at fixing any of the minor glitches. The window tint looks amazing and really helps reduce the glare when driving. The ceramic coating beads off water like crazy. The pricing is definitely competitive. Not the lowest, not the highest. But you get a great result that will (hopefully) last a while. Overall, I'm impressed and very happy with these guys. Great job and highly recommended.

His pricing is fair, his work is consistently high quality, and he takes the time to make sure customers understand their options rather than simply selling them the most expensive product. For my truck, Yosup recommended ceramic tint and walked me through several tint percentage options. He explained that adding 5% over the factory privacy glass would make the rear windows extremely dark and suggested that 15% would provide a better match to 5% on the front windows. I appreciated the honest advice and his willingness to share his expertise without any pressure. In the end, I decided to go with 5% all the way around because that was the look I wanted, and he was absolutely right. It is extremely dark, but exactly what I was looking for. The customer service was just as impressive as the quality of the work. Although my appointment was scheduled for 2:30 PM, Yosup accommodated my request to drop the truck off early in the morning so I could pick it up after work. He even finished the job ahead of schedule. It is hard to find businesses that combine great craftsmanship, honest recommendations, and exceptional customer service, which is why I continue to trust and recommend YS Window Tint.

This was my first time getting PPF, but I did a lot of research into the materials and Enthusiast offers the best of the best. I've received nothing but compliments on the workmanship and attention to detail from everyone who's seen the car. Eric's communication was top-notch throughout the entire process, and he was very accommodating with my busy schedule. Beyond the work itself, he also took the time to walk me through the do's and don'ts of cleaning, which I really appreciated. Speaking of attention to detail, I've seen some shops PPF right over tow hook covers and make other mistakes like that, but not here. I can look forward to many years of my car looking pristine. If you're looking for high-quality work, professionalism, and someone who genuinely cares about you and your car (and I guess, who isn't?), check Enthusiast out, you won't be disappointed.

    I brought my Model Y Juniper in for window tint and a full-body ceramic coating (XPEL Fusion Plus)…read moreand left disappointed with both the service and the communication. Tint was good -- I would say what you would expect for the price. My bigger concern was with the ceramic coating. When I picked up my car, I noticed the same paint swirls and marks that were present before drop-off. When I followed up, I was told that paint correction is a separate service and was not included. I understand that distinction now, but at no point -- not during our Yelp messaging, not during drop-off, not during any part of the process -- was I informed that the ceramic coating would be applied over uncorrected paint. As someone who reasonably assumed that surface prep and paint correction went hand-in-hand with a $650 ceramic coating, I would have expected that to be communicated upfront. The in-person interaction at drop-off was also minimal. Very little information was exchanged about what the process would entail or what to expect, which made the surprise afterward even more frustrating. With all the amazing reviews, I thought my vehicle was going to get well taken care of. To make matters worse, I noticed new scratches on the rear plastic trim and in the foot wells that were not present before I dropped the car off. The shop did offer a $150 discount toward a future paint correction service, which I appreciate, but at that point I had already lost confidence in continuing. Ultimately, I paid $650 for a ceramic coating applied over paint that wasn't properly corrected, received no proactive communication about what was or wasn't included, and got my car back with new damage. The tint work was fine, and Eric was responsive over messaging. But the lack of transparency around the scope of work and the condition of the car at pickup make it hard for me to recommend this shop. And trust me, I never write reviews nor do I want to talk badly about a company. I was just really disappointed at the fact that my brand new car was not taken care of. Really unfortunate. Response to business owner: I stand by every point I made. I understand that paint correction may be a separate service in your offerings, but my concern is not about what was listed -- it's about what was never communicated. At no point during our messaging, at drop-off, or at any stage of the process (until day of pick-up) was I informed that the ceramic coating would be applied over uncorrected paint. For a $650 service, I believe that distinction deserves to be clearly disclosed upfront, not after the fact. Regarding the scratches on the rear plastic trim and foot wells -- those were not present when I dropped the vehicle off. I'm not making that claim lightly. I acknowledged in my review that the tint work was good and that you were responsive. My feedback is about transparency and communication, which I believe are fair and reasonable expectations for any customer. I just want your future customers to know what to look out for.
