I had the front side windows tinted to match the rear windows, and a light tint placed on the windshield to reduce UV rays and IR damage. The windshield tint is not noticeable and seems to be a common aftermarket installation; particularly in areas that get a lot of sun. During a very warm month of March, it seemed like it kept the interior cooler, putting less strain on the A/C. Gabe also applied PPF over the front of the vehicle and tailgate as well as door cups. It's nice knowing these surfaces are protected from rocks, and anything that could chip the paint. A lifetime ceramic coating was placed over the top of everything to promote a lasting shine and protection for all surfaces. This is the third vehicle that Gabe has provided this service for me, and he always does a great job. High attention to detail, dependable timelines and a fair price. His new shop in Marina is very nice and reflects his quality oriented business.

I spent some time researching for the best place to tint my windows in the area. I came across…read moreElite Auto Spa and read a lot of great reviews online. I gave them a call because I had questions about ceramic window tint. I spoke with Gabriel who was very patient and super knowledgeable. I didn't feel rushed or felt like he was just trying to book a sale. Gabriel took his time and really explained the whole process and how ceramic window tint works. I booked my appointment and the service provided was top notch! Gabriel and his team did a fantastic job with the tint on my Toyota Tacoma! If you're reading this as I was before pouring over reviews looking for a reputable place. I 100% recommend Elite Auto Spa!

The team at Elite are very friendly and highly professional, they take the time to do the job right and wrap all the edges. They did a fantastic job all the way around including correcting any minor flaws in the surfaces found as they were working on the car. Additionally their prices are very fair, their price for "full body" with ceramic coating was only about 20% more than the dealer for a "front only" and full ceramic coating.

They are fast, professional, thorough, detail oriented and do amazing work!! I recently had them detail a truck I've owned for 14 years that I was going to list for sale.

They did such an amazing job breathing life back into it, I almost didn't recognize it and was blown away at the finished product! Not one square inch was overlooked! I highly recommend Anthony and his staff and can not say enough good things about the extreme quality and level they operate at!

First of all I can't even put into words how disappointing I am with this business. I contacted him…read morefor a full detail inside and out. I let him know how bad in condition my car was. He gave me a quote and in the middle of the work he texted me saying it was going to be an additional $100 because of how hard the work seemed. I agreed I would give him an extra $100 if all work was done properly and no work was done half way. He was 20 minutes late for the appointment and was late to drop off my vehicle even though he said he was on his way. There was MULTIPLE spots that were missed and could be taken off with even my nail scratching it off. I sent him all the photos and let him know I was very disappointed on everything that was done inside. My mats weren't even vacuumed at all and spots that could be taken care of weren't. He let me know he wouldn't take care of the spots because I refused to give him the additional $100 he asked for after giving me the original price he gave me from the start. I was polite on letting him know I just wanted all the missed work that was not done which I paid for $400 dollars and he REFUSED. He kept mentioning how dirty my car was as if I didn't know that and was asking for his service for that reason. I am beyond disappointed and very frustrated on not getting the service I was promised for and on top of that for the owner not owning up to his mistakes and coming back to clean the spots HE missed. Attached are all the pictures AFTER the detail was done. If you want a good work when paying a lot of money please take your business somewhere else. This guy does not know how to treat his customers nor run a small business of his own. Update : June 4th 2020 He has blocked my number and will not return my voicemails I left when I called him from another number. DO NOT EVER TRUST THIS GUY FOR DETAILING

When I moved to Monterey…read morePeninsula nearly four years ago I was able to find an independent service shop ( C&C) for my Porsche --they recommended Matt at PAD with the observation that his appointment waiting time was long-- and for good reason: he's a magician and worth the wait. Over the years and 3 services on 3 different cars I can say unequivocally, he's one of the best on the Peninsula if not The Best. Fairly priced, fanatic attention to detail Matt is going to make sure car look showroom new. I've had him do ceramic coating on my 911, Cayenne etc to keep my beauties always looking great. I've even had him to "emergency" looks at little parking lot scratches --and amazing buffing to take out the offending lines in my paint.

Car came out, I was watching them wipe it down.. then they said my car was ready.. I looked inside.. nothing was vacuumed! I picked up all four of my mats and put it on the seats to show them.. management came out to check.. I'm sure he was furious too! He told me to wait again, and took my car in for a second cleaning/vacuuming.. I was on my lunch break, this was a total inconvenience and time consuming! If the job was done right the first time.. no one's time would've been wasted! The time and effort that their employees put into this sucks. My advice for the businesses: have management come out and inspect vehicle and approving it before taking customers' money/letting customers drive off the lot. So many workers, but quality of work needs improvement. This could be a management issue.
