    Great job! Dropped off my car in the morning and picked it up in the afternoon with wireless CarPlay and backup camera system! They did a great job. I really liked, that this is what this place did because saw a lot of reviews of other places where batteries would die and stuff if the job wasn't done correctly. Well it has been a couple months. Have had no issues, the install looks and works great. Pricing was competitive, location was perfect for me, and it professional install. I thought the staff was friendly during my interactions, had no issues, and would definitely recommend to a friend or relative in need of a sound system/radio upgrade job. Got a new to me used 2008 Tundra. Was in desperate need of an upgraded radio as i didn't want anyone breaking in to steal one of these cheap devices you buy off amazon. Looking at installing car radios now seems like a giant hassle, compared to back in the day. Am very happy I had the pros at Shelby's tackle the task.

    This is the Android Car Play head unit. Looks great, doesn't it!

    Shelby's Car Stereo & Alarm do great work. Their finished product is always outstanding. The car tech, Jose is his name I believe, sat in the car explaining the different functions of my Car Play head unit. The Viper car alarm works outstanding also. I've been here at Shelby's several times now and have never been let down. Come to Shelby's for your vehicle's sound and alarm systems, you won't regret it!

    They hooked me up!

    These folks did a great job installing my new Droid deck, alpine speakers and amp! My first time with an entire system! They really did right by veteran and the front desk lady had foxy hair and a great attitude. The installer really made sure everything was clean and neat, and I could tell he really took pride in his work. Happy I went there for service.

    The very ignorant reply I got from Shelby's Car Stereo , STILL trying to blame me instead of their install

    And now the owner WHO I WAS WORKING WITH Is mad about a bad review What do you expect lady? I've had better installs and customer service from the guys who work in alleys in downtown LA for HALF the cost If you care about your car, your money, or the service that will be provided Go else where This install was a couple hundred bucks , not a huge deal But the service after an issue arose shows what these people think about their clients

    I had them tint my windows on my S560 Mercedes, made my car cooler inside. And look nice too.

    My bf had an alarm system installed in his car by you mostly so he would have the remote to unlock the doors. Can we bring the car in to disable the alarm? We think it's draining the battery.

    yes, you can.

I reached out through Yelp and got a quick response with a straightforward quote, no sales pressure, and they even offered a cash discount. When I brought my truck in, they took the time to clearly explain all the tint options, percentages, and what would work best with my factory tint. I ended up going with 20% all around and couldn't be happier with the result. The installation looks clean and professional, and the ceramic tint is noticeably high quality. They also back their work with a warranty, which gave me extra confidence. Overall, great communication, fair pricing, and quality work. I'd definitely recommend Pro Window Tinting to anyone looking for window tint in Long Beach.

He reassured me it would be fine and I'm glad I trusted him. It only took about 40 minutes which was surprisingly fast. The tint looks really clean on my new car and exactly how I wanted it. Based on my past experience and this visit, the quality here is consistently great. Fast, friendly service and I'll definitely keep coming back.

However, once the service was done I noticed this crack in my windshield. When I asked the lady that worked there what happened she said it was already there. NEGATIVE! I told them when we went over the imperfections there was no crack or else it would've been stated. The crack is extremely noticeable and wasn't there prior. They "checked the cameras" and couldn't prove it was there before. I spoke to the owner who said he would get back to me as soon as possible to resolve this issue, it's been 2 weeks and no response still. I get accidents happen but unfortunately, the owner never followed up with me. I expected better communication and accountability, especially after damage was caused to my vehicle while it was in their care. Mistakes can happen, but what matters is how a business handles them afterward. In this situation, I felt completely ignored and left to deal with the damage on my own. I would strongly recommend considering other options if you're looking for a shop that stands behind its work and takes responsibility when something goes wrong UPDATE: it looks like the windshield was previously cracked & we did not know. However, when operating a business I feel communication is key and reaching out should not take 2 and a half weeks. Once my review was posted then a response was sent.

    I want to start off by thanking Steve and his team for their efforts…read more Steve immediately reached out to me to resolve my issue regarding the defects in my wrap. We went over the problems together in detail and in the end he rectified my concerns, but also went above and beyond. He had my entire hood rewrapped and it gave my car a completely fresh look, which wasn't necessary (along with patching some scratches I've made myself, as a favor); even more so, Steve's extra efforts made this entire situation not only go smoothly but it made me feel like he truly wanted to address my concern. He truly herd me out and did what most business owners rarely do these days and that's go above and beyond to ensure their work and customer satisfaction is meet to high standards. Steve, I'd like to commend you for your customer-centric values you've instilled in your business and its operations. I can tell that you have great honor and pride in your work, as well as ensuring customer satisfaction in every project you and your team take on. I've never experienced such grace from a business owner regarding any issues I've had (small or large), as I did with Steve. I'm grateful for your kindness and integrity. I look forward to doing business with Elevance in the future, and recommending others as well. Thank you! (I'll be adding photos shortly) five+ stars

Steve was knowledgeable, patient, and very informative when helping me choose the right tint. I especially appreciated how conscientious he was about California tint laws. He explained what would and would not be compliant and helped me get as much privacy as possible on the front driver and passenger windows while staying within the legal requirements. The finished tint looks great, and the front windows are dark enough for the privacy I wanted without going overboard. While I was there, Steve also repaired some curb rash on one of my wheels. It came out great as well. Steve is professional, confident in his work, and clearly takes pride in doing things properly. Excellent workmanship and customer service. I would definitely recommend Elevance and will return in the future.

I'd had bids from other installer, but my first phone conversation with owner Marvel (super nice guy) at Platinum I knew I was making the right choice. He was extremely thorough and helpful in his explanations and submitted a competitive estimate immediately after our call. On the day I dropped my car off Marvel spent well over an hour going over the various options to confirm what I wanted, did not try to upsell me (even downsold me on one option). He kept me updated throughout the process and I picked up the car today and it looks gorgeous. Am really pleased with the results, and also with the follow-up. Am bringing the car back in two weeks for a first wash and (in the unlikely event) touchup, if necessary. They are very clear about maintenance/washing, annual shop visit, etc, and I feel comfortable that if there turn out to be any issues, they'll stand behind their work.

Although his shop is fairly new, Marvel brings years of industry experience and a deep passion for his craft. He took the time to clearly explain the entire process, demonstrating a level of precision and professionalism that sets him apart--his process is truly dialed in. Marvel tinted all the windows, including the windshield, using Llumar IRX nano ceramic film, one of the highest-performing tints on the market. He is an authorized Llumar dealer, which gives you peace of mind knowing you're getting genuine, warrantied film--not like some shops that claim to use Llumar but apply generic products from unbranded boxes. He's honest, straightforward, and doesn't push unnecessary upgrades. His attention to detail is second to none, and he's committed to delivering flawless results, even making adjustments if something doesn't meet his own high standards. If you're looking for professional, high-quality tint work from someone who truly cares about the end result, I highly recommend platinum Motorworks
