    I would like to Thank Erik for being the business owner that he is and for being one of a kind as he genuinely cares for his clients and makes sure they are beyond satisfied with the work he performs. I knew I believed in his business once we seen him with his family after hours making sure his brand and work came to perfection. I just want to Thank you for making our truck complete and we love the ceramic tint. I can't wait to send you my other vehicles and customers. Thank you again. You truly went above and beyond explaining costs and longevity of tint along with getting us in there super fast and updating us through the process. You beat 9 other local tint shops with price and most importantly, you personalize the experience and make it worth the business.

    If you want quality work with grade A+ window tint, come to MCM Automotive Tint. Erik is extremely professional and passionate about his work. Prices are extremely fair for the quality you get. This is the 2nd car I take to Erik and the application of the tint is always flawless! The lifetime warranty puts the cherry on top. I highly recommend this place if you want your windows tinted right.

    My everyday commuter car is an older car, and I don't know how I've been driving without tints for so long, especially during those hot summer days. I've just gotten accustomed to feeling those hot sun rays piercing through the windows and having my a/c work overtime to keep the interior cool. Fortunately, I just got around to finally getting tints and I was sure glad I did. MCM Tint has a variety of options to fit your budget and expectations for what you're trying to achieve with the tints. The owner, Erik, explains the different shades, types of material and their benefits and also gives a demonstration on the specific heat resistance among the different types. So if you're going for aesthetics, there's a more budget friendly option, but if you want the full benefit of heat/uv resistance and anesthetics, there's that option too. I chose the top tier ceramic tint option and it was still a very competitive price. Erik sure knows his craft and it was apparent when I saw the final product. My car looked amazing and the interior is now much cooler even when the sun is at its strongest. Erik is very responsive, friendly, knowledgeable and patient (it took me quite a while to decide which option and tint shade I wanted). He was also very communicative and gave me a courtesy call on when it was close to completion. Be sure to look for MCM Automotive Tint if ever you're in the market for car tinting!

    Eric's outstanding work on tinting my windows far exceeded expectations. Initially, I had scheduled an appointment with a different company, but upon reviewing their ratings, I decided to go with Automotive Tint MCM, which had a perfect five-star rating. I called Eric at 3:30 to inquire about booking an appointment for that day, and he offered a candid assessment of the timeframe, indicating it would take 3-4 hours for my S-class Mercedes. As I needed to leave early the next morning, Eric worked diligently to deliver exceptional results, and I was impressed when he finished the work by 9:30 pm. His exceptional service justified an exceptional tip. I strongly recommend using his services, considering his eight years of experience and shop ownership. I'm glad I didn't go with the other company, as I know they wouldn't work late to get the job done, as the reviews probably would damage interior lighting. If you are looking for quality, great services, honesty, schedule an appointment with him.

    I've been riding in a fish bowl since 2021 back when I got my car. Eventually got fed up and decided I needed some tints. After doing research, making, and missing appointments I figured it wasn't a good time to get tints. One day I was googling tints and I came across MCM in Vista, which was closer than one place I was gonna drive an hour for. I called and made an appointment. The owner, Erik, was very professional, nice, and attentive. When I showed up to the shop, he showed me the different variations of tints. I ended up going with 20% uniform including the back window. I was impressed with his work ethic being he's the only one running his shop. Highly recommend!

    MCM Automotive tint was amazing from start to finish. The owner Erik is a tint master and takes pride in making sure his work and clients leave with nothing but 5 star service. This is the second time my company has used Erik to tint our Toyota Tundras. I went with the Solar Gard Vortex Ceramic tint. My truck not only stays way cooler inside but the unwanted glare and UV rays are all gone! I have been tinting windows for 15 years now on Buildings and homes and my sales rep recommended MCM since he knows how picky we are with perfect work on my vehicles. The price was super fair and Erik is the Man! Tell him the "Tint Twins" sent you. I promise you will get the best work and I wish everyone did business how MCM tint does. Thank you again and God bless you!! I love my tint

    Solar Gard's   Ceramic Tint
    Dominick U.

    Erik was more than 5 stars! And I'm very picky, especially being in the same trade as he is, only I do commercial and residential (not vehicles). I reached out to my Solar Gard rep, which is also his rep. He knew I wanted nothing but the best because that is what my company demands.. Eric lived up to all of that. He uses the best product in the industry. His prices are great and competitive and his work is flawless. I'm bringing my other truck to him in the morning actually, and sending him all my clients that ask if we tint vehicles from now on. Thank you so much Erik!

    Tint job
    Angel M.

    Eric was amazing! Gave me quote over the phone in minutes and kept that same quote when he finished the job! Price was great. Got the job done in a couple hours and car came out looking even better than what I imagined. Definitely will recommend to friends and family and will go back to him again if I get another car tinted.

    We decided to black out our new Tahoe.

    Eric did an amazing job! He offers top of the line materials. He explained to us which type of tint is better and higher quality. Customer service was excellent. Very pleased with his work and will definitely recommend to friends and family!

    Erik did such a great job adding tint to our car and making it look brand new! He was very knowledgeable and really took the time to explain everything about the different options to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted. We will definitely be using him again in the future!

    MCM Tint is amazing. Erik was super fast and communicative when it came to pricing over the phone. He was able to work with my busy schedule and came in on Thanksgiving morning to tint my car. For that I respect him x100 more. Being a a young girl you always have the worry in the back of your head wondering if you're going to get ripped off by auto shops. He was super upfront with all the pricing and warranties. He was also super educational with all the different types of film. I got 5% Vortex Ceramic all around. Thank You! Thank you! Thank you!

    Hi, I loved my experience getting my decal done by Erik! I went to him since I didn't want to mess it up, and it turned out exactly how I wanted. I'll be going to him for the next decal I put on!

    Had my window broken from some dirt bag breaking in only to steal nothing.

    I had such a great experience with this tint company.

The owner was incredibly helpful and took the time to explain the different tint levels, what would work best, and what would actually look good on my car instead of just trying to upsell me. You can tell they really care about the quality of their work and customer experience. The tint came out amazing and looks super clean. One of the reasons I chose them was because I kept seeing reviews saying the work lasts and holds up well over time, and honestly, that's what made me trust them in the first place (even ChatGPT pointed me toward them because of their reviews ). Really happy with the experience and would definitely recommend them.

Seriously, the car had never looked better until he gave it the best detail of its life. I completely trust Smith Bros. Ryan is honest. He found an item of value and notified me as to where he placed it. Tires are gleaming. Even the runner area is fresh and clean. Ryan even resolved the numerous smudges on my view screen down to the finest detail. He gave the sedan a Midas touch. Smith Bros even offered to go to Santee! They brought their mobile service to my employer's place of business. Really great customer support that is a rarity these days. Ryan is tops. I am super happy with the care that Ryan took in caring for my car. Smith Bros is ethical. They are safety-conscious, which shows they are the right company for the job. They truly seem to care about their customers and employees. What is most impressive is how they work as a team in a seamless manner. You just won't find quality detailing combined with exceptional customer service anywhere else. The detailer recommends services that meet your needs with no surprises, a hallmark of professionalism at its apex. Due to the skillful knowledge and careful techniques, your vehicle is in great hands with Smith Bros., highly qualified, experienced detailers. Of special note is I had been driving around with dog hair in places I couldn't reach. Ryan even took care of that! Moreover, Ryan detailed areas I requested such as the headliner and trunk. Smith Bros is reputable throughout San Diego County. If you want your vehicle to be professionally and meticulously detailed by high-quality technicians who are enthusiastic about their craft, I highly recommend Smith Bros. The difference is incredible. Everything is amazingly clean. Don't risk entrusting any other company with the care one of your greatest assets. Contact Smith Bros.

    This shop is located towards the back of the plaza on Oceanside Blvd. It is the plaza with…read moreChipotle, Jersey Mike's, Enzo's BBQ, Hand car wash, and 88 Ranch grocery store. They have a large banner that specifies auto tint, but just wanted to ensure I specify their location as some may miss them. This review is a bit overdue as I've had multiple vehicles for window tinting at this location. My father found this location, and the owner (male) has been very quick and efficient, and always does a great job. Since then, my family and I always take our vehicles to this store when we need our windows tinted. I recently purchased a new vehicle and needed my windows tinted, so took my new vehicle to him. I'm usually pretty hesitant that my vehicle will get damaged as it had been at another vendor years ago... but I trust the owner and the other gentleman who also works here. They inspect for any damages prior to start and are careful with your vehicle (both inside and out). He also tells you his honest opinion rather than for money making desires. His ceramic tints are excellent! Trust me, they may cost more, but they are definitely worth it. I've had different tints, and ceramic ones are the best! Also, the other places use too much adhesive and it stains my windows, but this place doesn't do that. Prices are also fair! He is always willing to work with you for a reasonable price. Great work always, and very quick yet work is always excellent! Some times in the summer, scheduling an appointment would be best, but other times you can walk in and request for same day service and if possible, they get it done. Will definitely return here again even if I have to drive a few hours! I highly recommend!

    Updated Review Per…read morethe shop's recommendation, I took my vehicle to Tesla for a full inspection of the windshield. After evaluating it, Tesla confirmed that the lines in the glass were caused by external forces -- most likely excessive heat -- and not by any manufacturing defect. They were very clear that there is no scenario where the vehicle would have left the factory with this type of damage. Because of that, the replacement was not covered under warranty, and I had to pay $1,535 out of pocket. Here's what this experience has cost me: * $300 for the original tint * $150 for tint removal -- which I was never informed would be charged, and they only told me I "owed money" after removing it * $1,535 for a new windshield due to damage caused during their tint installation That's almost $2,000 lost, and I'm left with no tint, a brand‑new windshield I had to pay for myself, and zero accountability from the shop. To make matters worse, the owner laughed at my wife during the conversation. That alone tells you everything about the level of professionalism you can expect. If you choose to get your tint done here, understand this clearly: If something goes wrong, you will get no support, no responsibility, and possibly even disrespect. What you may get is a bill for the damage they caused.
