I've used Nick twice. First on my Tesla and then on my BMW. Great service at a reasonable price.

Biggest liars and scam artists in town!! Stay away. Caught the guy lying to me immediately on the phone and then he got rude and combative when I called him out. Go there if you want to get scammed and screwed. RUN FOLKS!!!! Classy way to respond to the customer when you get caught in your lies and get called out for it. Don't change prices from one sentence to the next. Unprofessional joke of a business. read more

I read the reviews before trying Nick's. I figured that the 2 or so negative reviews had to be unlikely aberrations since Nick's had over 20 other five-star reviews. I was right; This place is excellent. I called ahead and asked if it was a good time to bring my 535i in for tinting. They said I could stop by in an hour and when I drove up, they were pulling a newly tinted Honda out of the garage (it looked nice). Three people swarmed my car and finished tinting 5 windows in exactly 47 minutes. Nick charged me $180. I paid cash. It's been a week now and all of the expected preliminary bubbles have disappeared, leaving a dark perfectly cut tint on my windows. There isn't any place to sit there, but there are restaurants and a coffee shops within walking distance. I chose to stay and watch my tint being applied and the job was finished so quickly, I didn't care about the seating arrangements. One bragging point I think Nick's isn't capitalizing on is that Kobe Bryant gets his cars tinted there. There is a wall of photos featuring their tinting work and Kobe's pic is there amidst all the others -not blown up larger or otherwise highlighted. (Note, I doubt that I could get away with 360 degree limo tint -including windshield like Kobe can, but...) Nicks needs to promote this fact with all the rabid Laker fans who live in the area. If you need your car tinted, Nicks is your place. Great job. I'll go back. read more

Just got back from getting my windows tinted by Nick's and I'm very pleased! I did a lot of research before choosing a place in LA to trust my new Porsche to, and decided on Nicks. When I got there on a Saturday they were just finishing up a another car and took mine immediately. They helped me choose the best level of tint for my car, and recommended a great mexican restaurant nearby to eat lunch while I waited. They estimated an hour and a half, but called my in less than an hour and let me know it was ready. Very friendly and helpful. I'll definitely be back with my next car. read more

I have been to Nicks glass tinting shop 3 times, first time I had my car tinted, the last 2 times was to replace the window tints that had bubbles. Waste of time, pay a little more and get the job done right. Also they did not let me watch my car get tinted, not even from the end of the driveway, they told me it made them nervous that I was watching. THEY REFUSED TO TINT MY WINDOWS UNLESS I WAS ACROSS THE STREET INSIDE MCDONALDS! THATS WHEN I LEFT. Windows do have bubbles even after they were replaced twice. read more

What a pleasant staff. I was looking for glass tinting on my car through Groupon and I found nicks. I decided to go in on a Monday during their opening hours. They were able to take me immediately and finished my windows within 30mins. I was so happy at how fast and efficient of a job they did. My windows looked amazing. And it comes with a lifetime warranty how can you beat that. read more

Nick's is the BEST!! After checking his reviews on yelp, and Finding his prices were very reasonable, I took my new Subaru Forester Sport to Nick's Glass Tinting. He was fast and the work was superb!! Definitely an A+ read more

Purchased the five window deal on Groupon for $90 for a brand new Mercedes C300. I made an appointment for 11am the next day and was greeted by one of the friendly employees. I knew the separated windows on the rear door itself would be counted individually so I asked for the service to be upgraded to seven windows total (Both front windows, all four rear door windows and the rear windshield). Total amount spent was $150 including the Groupon. If you decide to wait, as I did, you'll have the options of going to McDonald's or Starbucks nearby in additional to their own waiting room. The job took about an hour and a half. I asked for the front windows to be tinted at 30% and the remaining rear windows tinted at 75%. The guys did a great job. Tint was applied cleanly and not only does my car now look a bit sleeker, its much cooler inside. I've uploaded pictures of my dark gray C300 with Penske paper plates if you'd like to see their work for yourself. I will be taking the rest of my family's cars in next. read more

I used Nick's to tint my car's window and I am very happy with his service and work. I set appointment on yelp and took my car there and he finished job on time and turn out to be great work. I have paid $450 for my last car some places else for same material and work but Nick charges about half and he did great job on my car. I'd come back here again for my next cars. His shop is on corner of Lincoln and Hill St inside the small plaza. read more

The last place I went to that tinted my last car (that I won't name) didn't do the best job. It bubbled up pretty quickly. So I thought I'd try a new place out. I searched Groupon for any places by me and found a handful. I checked out their Yelp reviews and decided to go with Nick's. I gave him a call and he quoted me a great rate so no need to buy a Groupon. He got me in the next day. We discussed which tint would be best on my car. I walked down to Clutch for some tacos. Came back when I was done and he was finished. Car looks great. Quality work. Super friendly. If you're on the west side and need your windows tinted definitely come here. They even have a Yelp coupon to make it the best priced place with superior workmanship. I made the right decision. You should too. read more

Beware bait and switch operation! I bought the Groupon for tinting of 5 windows for my sons birthday present. Called to make an appointment and was told 20 days! When my son show up he wants to charge extra for the 2 front Windows saying the small back windows count as 2! He we asked to not tint the small windows but refused said he would only tint back that the front is was illegal. But would charge extra and he would do it, WTF it's only illegal to tent the front when you use a Groupon? This guy is a joke wish I would have read all the Yelp reviews before I purchased a Groupon. It's true what they say if is sound too good to be true the then it must not be true! Run away from this guy by any means necessary read more

Huge bait and switch : total Groupon hustle; front windows not included??? No such garage named Nick's??? And the refused to provide the promised service after I complained about their business practices and that I felt cheated - refused to tint the front 2 windows read more

Unfortunate update: A few years after getting the tint, my back window bubbled. My friend who knows a lot more than I do about cars and their parts told me this is due to low quality tint. So, cannot recommend. read more

Fraud Alert!!! BE AWARE. The worst experience I've ever had in my life. I purchased Tinting for five car windows 1,000+ bought $190 $108 43% OFF. I called them 2 weeks ago to make an appointment. I talked with Nick and asked him about the price of the Ceramic film, and it was $399. I asked him if I can pay the difference($399 - $190= $209), and he said it was fine. I started reading reviews of this business and saw some customers had problems because of overcharging for two little back windows. So I messaged him and asked if 2 small windows are included in the $399 price for ceramic film, and he said YES. After 2 weeks I went for my appointment. FIRST ALERT: THERE IS NOT AN STORE CALLED NICK'S GLASS TINTING! I asked the store next to them, which is m&m tinting, and they said, this we are NICK. They had my contact info, so I trusted them. SECOND ALERT: I DROPPED OF THE CAR AT 1:30 pm, AND THEY CALLED ME BACK AT 6 PM. THIRD ALERT: THE TINTED WINDOWS WITH A LOT OF BUBBLES AND FINGERPRINT FROM INSIDE. MY INTERIOR AND EXTERIOR OF THE CAR WITH FULL OF STAINS AND SMALL PIECES OF FILMS. I HAD PAID $150 for detailing my car a day before, and they ruined everything. The messiest job I've seen in my life. NOW THE MOST IMPORTANT ALERT: I showed him the Groupon voucher I purchased, and he tapped to redeem it! And then asked me to pay him $399 extra. WHAT THE HELL? He said the coupon value is not $190, and it is what I paid to GROUPAN, which was about $100! WHAT'S THE POINT OF GETTING GROUPON, THOUGH? Then I told him that even if this voucher is $100, why should I pay $399 more? FOURTH ALERT: BECAUSE I TINTED 7 WINDOWS(including small ones)! I SHOWED HIM HIS SMS MESSAGE, and then he threatened me and started behaving like Mexican gangs. FINAL ALERTTTTTT: HE said if I don't pay, he would call the cops, and they will give me a ticket for tinting my windows!!!!! It's like accusing someone who is using the drug, although you are a drug dealer! LONG STORY SHORT, COPS CAME, THEY REMOVED THE FILMS FROM MY WINDOWS, A LOT OF GLUE ON MY 2021 BMW SERIES 5 WINDOWS, THEY RUINED MY CAR, WASTED MY TIME, AND GAVE ME THE WORST IMPRESSION I HAVE EVER HAD. AVOID THESE SHOPS, EVEN IF THEY OFFER YOU FREE TINTING. read more

Found Nick's Glass Tinting through Groupon. Call in to make appointment and asked if I can come in 30mins. Associate over the phone said come on in. Took my mustang in for window tinting and the staff at Nicks took care of my car. I was in and out within an hour. Plus, the staff gave me a two weeks warranty on the tint (since i bought the deal from groupon). I would definitely recommend. read more

I came back to yelp just to check each and every individual reviewer to see if they were legit. To my surprise, they seem to be real people. I tried Nick's because of yelp, but have to say I'm thoroughly disappointed. In the past 20 years, I've had about 15-20 cars tinted at Tint Connection in Costa Mesa (highly recommend it), but thought I'd give Nick's a shot due to location, price, and yelp reviews. I wish I had gone with Tint Connection instead. The service was intimidating. Nick, I'm sure, is a nice and friendly man. But one of the workers there (his oldest son, maybe?) was not so hospitable. There was a younger kid there working on my car, and he looked to be about 14yo. He took a break after doing a window to buy ice cream from the ice cream man. I found it to be kinda funny and endearing, and chatted with him a bit during his break. Nice kid. After Nick and grumpy son finished my car, I noticed a gigantic bubble on the driver's side. I pointed it out, and Nick immediately told grumpy that it was poorly done, and to re-do it all over. Grumpy kinda threw a fit and tore the tint into shreds. Very awkward for me, the customer. I was hoping to drive away from there with no issues afterward, but I had to go back a week later because two of my windows had bubbles. Lucky me, only Grumpy was there to hear me out. I pointed out the bubbles, and he agreed to fix them. And because I'm used to the work quality from Tint Connection (in Costa Mesa, not West LA), I pointed out a few other flaws as well, hoping they'll see that they did a crappy ass job. Grumpy then walks me over to a 1992 Acura sitting in the lot (I'm guessing it's his car), and points at the tint job which was pock marked with holes and rips and bubbles, obviously, and says, "See? Tint jobs can't be perfect." I waited a couple of seconds to see if he was joking or not. He wasn't. Grumpy doesn't make jokes. I couldn't believe he just compared his handywork on my car with that of a 20+ year old tint job. In short, do not go here if you know what a tint job should be like. If you're not overly picky about your car, then you should be ok. But if you know the difference between microfiber towels and regular towels, and would never take advantage of a free carwash offer at a gas station, then you're better off going someplace more legit (again, Tint Connection in Costa Mesa--and no, I don't work for them). Update 09/23/09: Just found Signature Glass Tinting in Costa Mesa, and it's my new go-to place for tints. Can't go wrong with them! read more

Excellent work! Super fast! Quoted me 2 hours, they were done in less than a hour and a half! My car looks amazing! Highly recommended! And it comes with a LIFETIME warranty! U can not beat that! read more

Nick's Glass Tinting - Love my New tint makes my brand new Audi A3 look - Home Window Tinting Near Me - Venice , California

After owning a car for 6 years, my fiancee had finally decided to get tints for his car after he had obtained a groupon as a gift from his friend. I would say that this is one of the most UNPROFESSIONAL place we have been to. The tint job was done by highschool kids or young adults that appears to have no experience! After the tint was done, my fiancee had noticed a piece of electrical tape in the inside of the car by the window. He had peeled it off and noticed that part of his door was burnt from the blowtouch and was not notified by the workers!! How unprofessional can you be if you had made a mistake and not even inform the customer of the incident! We would not recommend this place to anyone, unless you want a crappy tint job!!! read more

They told me i had 90 days to bring back if they were bubbling, I left town for a funeral, when I got back, within a month, I noticed one small section on the back window that was bubbling and took it in. They said I would have to pay $80 more. NO!!! read more

DO NOT GO HERE! THE SERVICE IS A JOKE! I'd give this place zero stars if I could. I needed to have my tint removed, so I called this place on a Saturday afternoon to see if I could just come by or needed to make an appointment. The guy that picked up the phone needs to take customer service 101. He answered the phone by just saying "hello?", and then gave only short, one-word answers to my questions. It was the most awkward conversation I've had in a while. In the end, he said that I could just come by and they would be able to do the job in half an hour for $30, NO PROBLEM. I should have gone with my gut and skipped this place, but I made the twenty minute drive. When I got there and pulled up into the tiny little lot, the guy proceeded to tell me that he had two cars to work on and was "busy". There was nothing he could do for me. This was the same guy I had just spoken to on the phone. When I brought up that he had told me to just come on by, that no appointment would be necessary, he simply reiterated that he was "too busy". No apology. I left and went to 310 Tinting on Jefferson. They did the job in about an hour for the same price. Do not give these people your money. read more

Got the tint done on my Challenger! Super friendly, super fast service! I will definitely come back for any extra services needed and send my friends this way. I initially had a few questions and Nick was very attentive to answer them over the yelp chat. We scheduled an appointment and the date and time I preferred were available. I got 5 windows tinted and for a great deal. If you want great service for a great price, visit Nick's! read more

Well the sun was getting pretty hot so I had to get my windows tinted . I took my car into nicks on Lincoln blvd . To be honest I was shocked at what I saw .. Apparently the owner nick was first of all tinting windows with sandals and by the smell he was obviously intoxicated with alcohol . Second the young man (nicks son) did not look presentable at all . Smelled like marijuana, intimidated me with all his tattoos and was really rude . Seems like he did not want to work . So I ended up taking my car into m&m down the street. He told me that he was better and more professional than nicks . Which it semmed like it . Now I'm all tinted up and happy thanks to M&M (Mario) read more

I redeemed a Groupon voucher that I paid for 5 windows. When I arrived, the guy said, "Your driver side and passenger window is not included. The five windows only include the small windows next to the rear windows." I agreed to pay another $75 to have the driver and passenger windows tinted. I said to the guy that I want the driver and passenger windows less tinted than the ones in the back. I said I wanted them lighter, similar to the Tesla vehicle that he had completed. He seemed to understand. When I returned to see the completed service, I saw that all the windows had the same dark tint. That was not what I ordered. I was visibly upset about the mistake. The guy said, "I know what you are doing. You are just being critical so you wouldn't have to pay the $75. Groupon customers are always the worst kind." This comment, combined with his lack of ownership for his mistake, made me more upset. I started waving my finger at my own car that there is a misunderstanding, and I am not happy with the dark tint on my front windows. He said, "Stop pointing your finger. And accept that you didn't tell me the right instructions." I said "I'll give you the $75 just so I can leave this horrible interaction," and he said he will refuse to give my key back. He tucked my car keys in his pocket!! Long story short, I gave the $75 and told him I will write this review and left the place. I am more dissatisfied with his threatening interactions (keeping my keys and refusing to return them and his put-down about Groupon customers) than the mistake he made on my front windows. He should have written down my instructions, repeated it to me, so that this kind of misunderstanding doesn't cost time, money, and regrets. read more

Years ago, I had my previous car tinted here with no issues. I actually had to replace the back window and had to have it tinted by another business and it started to bubble after two years but the work from Nick's still looked perfect the day that I sold it. I purchased a new car and wanted to keep the peepers from looking in my front window, and oh yeah, protect the leather, so I decided to look on Groupon. I found Nick's on there but called and was told they would honor the Groupon price. I made an appointment for the next morning. I was in and out of there in 35 min. Had just enough time to walk to Whole Foods and back. Two days late I noticed a small bubble. I called Nick jr. immediately and made another appointment. These things happen sometimes, and I know they stand behind their work so I wasn't too bothered by it. Now after the second time, my windows look fantastic. I'm very pleased and would definitely take my next car back there to get tinted as well. read more

Not professional work. They never give me 20$ off like the advertisement on the yelp page. I will report about it to the Business Bureau of California. Thanks read more

Always an excellent job, have done few cars for me I. The past, still the best deal in the neighborhood.

Took my new used Prius here not too long ago. It could be a bit difficult to spot because the shop is pretty tiny. I was told it would be complete in a couple of hours and it was done in a little over 2 hours but no biggie. I was told that American Standard ceramic film was being used. The gentleman assisting me gave me his opinion on what to get and informed me of what shades I could get to avoid cops. Overall I was pretty impressed with the job done despite a few bubbles on some of my front windows, but they have a lifetime warranty and can re-do or touch up what you need them to... so I'll probably head back soon. I paid $180 cash for everything. read more

I purchased a Groupon last week and scheduled an appointment this morning for 12pm. I was greeted by Nick Jr. who was courteous and well mannered. I told him what I wanted and he did the rest, pretty easy. He told me it would be done in 90 minutes and right at 1:30, I got a call telling me that my car was ready! I would recommend making an appointment to guarantee a time slot. You can kill time by walking south on Lincoln. In 5 minutes, you'll hit 2 Mexican restaurants, a Starbucks, and a Whole Foods (on the same side). Nick's Glass Tinting may be difficult to find but it's right across the street from McDonalds, just look for the golden arches. It's located among a bunch of other car garages. If you Groupon it, don't forget to tip it! read more

I read a review a friend of mine gave on Nick's so I decided to check it out. I had my windows tinted on my last car but felt like I overpaid so I wanted to try a new place. I called Nick before I came and mentioned that I had read the awesome reviews on Yelp. I mentioned that my friend wanted her windows tinted at the same time so we both brought our cars in together. Nick & his co-workers did a great & speedy job. His goal is to make his customers satisfied and I am satisfied. I would def recommend their services to others. Nick does a great & fast job & offers very competitive rates. read more
