Created a Yelp just to give Umbra a review. First off, I was coming in from out of town in part to get my windows tinted on my Passat. I didn't realize how booked up this place is until I called, but Nino understood I was coming in from out of town and opened up a slot for me. He had me come in right when the shop opened at 9am even though he had another appointment at 10am. He was done by 11:30am.... Amazing. So far the tints look perfect and I can rest easy with a lifetime guarantee from FormulaOne. Especially since FormulaOne has several locations that will honor the guarantee. You can tell this place knows what they are doing and do it right. Highly recommended. read more

Excellent service! Called in earlier this week and was able to book for today. Went with the ceramic window tints & couldn't be happier for how it came out on my 2020 corolla. Nikola was straight to the point, friendly, and made everything super simple. Would recommend this place to anyone looking to get vehicle tints. read more

I'm not surprised that Umbra has so many good reviews. Guys are PROs at they do. I brought my new car to tint windows and clear bra installation. Everything was done quick and the quality of work is perfect. read more

This is the place to go for Tints, clear bra, and much more! I had recently ordered custom cut Lamin-X for my 2016 VW Golf SE's fog lights! Nino asked me to come in around closing and took care of the install in 15 minutes tops. Excellent job and highly recommend it to anyone in the market to give their car some style! read more

In Oct. 2012, I took my Mazda 3 in for 35% all around initially and Nino and George did a great job. Both were very friendly and did not mind me hanging out with them while they worked. They were both friendly people and fun to chat with. 2 months later, I received a "front window tint ticket" from the local police (argh!) and explained the matter to Nino. All I can say is Nino was very understanding and kindly book me in between his busy schedule the next day to adjust my front two windows to 50% at no charge! Now that's providing excellent customer service! Overall, Nino is a great guy, knowledgeable, and very experienced in his work. Definitely the place to go to get your car windows tinted! read more

Over the past few years, I have been to a few different tinting establishments across Indiana and Illinois. As I now live in Northern Illinois, I was in need of a new tint shop close to me when I bought my 2014 Camaro. I found Umbra on Yelp and saw that it had a 5 star rating (unheard of!). I will say that this is the BEST place I have even been for tinting! The owner is not only the nicest of guys, but he also knows EXACTLY what he is doing. His service was timely and he did a literal perfect job on my new car. He was price competitively as well, but I guarantee for the quality of service I got, I will never consider anyone else in the tinting business. I give it 5 stars, because I cannot give it more. Literally awesome and I encourage everyone to try here before anyone else. Thank you! read more

We tinted both of our cars (a Lexus IS and a Porsche 911) and these guys did an amazing job. The tint used, Pinnacle Formula One, is outstanding. The edges and the cut is done to perfection. I think this is the best tint shop to go to, in the Schaumburg area. read more

I wouldn't go anywhere else. Nino does an excellent and professional job everytime. I've used him for multiple cars and various applications. No one compares. He's competitively priced and provides lifetime warranty on all his work. read more

Where do I begin ??? If you have read the previous reviews, it's no surprise that I'm rating this 5 Stars. I wish I could rate it higher. Getting an appointment was easy, but don't be surprised if you may to wait a couple of weeks. Initially, I contacted him via email. The reply was returned lightning quick. The wait is worth it !!! Nino and his associate are very courteous and professional. They did 35% all around and it looks gorgeous !!! I had to wait for it in their comfortable waiting room. They completed their exceptional work in about 2 hours. Don't be blinded by other window tinters. Just go to Umbra and you'll NEVER look at another place. read more

Great experience from start to finish with Nino, very responsive via yelp or phone. We're very happy with the tint! He was even willing to try to repair a scuff on the factory tint, when we were leaving, our second car had a plastic "skid-plate" hanging down and he offered his help and vehicle ramps to solve the problem. UNSURPASSED SERVICE, I HIGHLY RECOMMENDED UMBRA!! read more

Good people, great work and fair prices. And they have a lifetime warranty. Making an appointment was easy. Dropped the car off first thing in the morning and by the afternoon it was done. read more

After several months of trying to coordinate getting my vehicle tinted, it's finally done! To no fault of Umbra, I live quite a distance away so I have to plan my trips. I was finally able to get in and the service is on par with other reviewers. Nino delivered excellent service and the tint is top quality. I went with 30% all around and am very happy. Thank you Umbra!! read more

I had my 2012 BMW coupe tinted today at Umbra's. Nino was great to work with, and was even able to get me in before my scheduled appointment for Wednesday. He knew I was anxious to get them done:) He was very thorough in explaining how the tint would be applied, and answered all of my questions. The waiting area is comfortable, with a tv, movies to watch, magazines, water. He let me know that it will take about 10 days for the tint to fully settle, and if there are any issues or concerns, to let him know. I chose Umbra based solely on the Yelp reviews. Very professional and courteous. read more

I'm so happy with my windows. I made a last minute appointment and they were able to get it done and they did a great job. They made the process super easy and game me their honest opinion on how dark I could get away with. I would definitely recommend Umbra. read more

Ok, I got my windows on my 2009 Ford Fusion done in April of 2012. Got 35% done all around, and I am very pleased with the results. The job took a little under 3 hrs, and Nino was happy to let me watch as he did his work. The tint has held up great in the oppressive heat of this Summer. No flaws of any kind. I'm going to get my Father to get his new 2012 Fusion tinted here! read more

Coming to Umbra was a pretty easy decision. I wanted to get tints for my 2010 WRX Hatch so I started calling places in the Chicago land area. Some places want $300+ for handcut tints. Some places ask under $200 but the reviews aren't too good. At Umbra, I was able to get laser cut tints (35% all around) with a lifetime warranty for $220! Amazing deal so I went ahead and called to make an appointment. The place is a little bit hard to find but it is extremely clean on the inside, something that should not be overlooked at a place that does tints. Nino, the owner, is very friendly and courteous. He was pretty quick as it took him less than two hours to do the entire thing. I waited about a week to write the review to give the tints times to set and I am extremely satisfied with his work. Flawless. Definitely recommend taking your car here if you're considering getting your windows tinted. read more

Ive had issues with a darker film on rear its bubbled and didn't apply well due to issues the business simply couldnt fix unless there was a solid film that wasnt transparent to cover portions that hadnt stuck well. I am going in again for the 3rd time to look into why this non transparent film didnt "take" to rear tint...it turned out the business was just as professional as the prior times. The situation was resolved and I would recommend 100% Each car is finicky and was glad the business told me so... read more

Nino was awesome!! Took both my 2013 Chrysler 300 and my husbands 2013 Honda accord in to get 35% all around. It was a great installation and the customer service was awesome!! The tints are all guaranteed for life. Highly recommend Umbra!!!! Don't go anywhere else, not worth the risk. --Time was about 1.5hrs per car in winter during the week (although I'd guess the summer or weekends are more jammed as other reviewers suggest) --he gives a lifetime guarantee card to replace any flaw at any time --he gives a certification that the tints are within state law to show police if you ever get hassled I created this yelp account just to leave this feedback. read more

This is THE BEST place to get tints! My husband did a detailed research on places that do tints before he took his new car here. He made an appointment waited four weeks to get his done - that's how busy they are! They are professional and the quality is unbeatable. There is a reason why they have so many 5 star reviews! read more

After doing my research online I finally decided to go with Umbra and couldn't be happier. Nino is an honest guy who knows what he does. He uses high quality tints, and everything is computer cut. No bubbles at all. Definitely a five-star place and highly recommended. read more

Umbra Window Tinting - 2017 Odyssey - Home Window Tinting Near Me - Schaumburg, Illinois

Excellent quality and performance. If you want the best tint for your car, this is it. It's laser cut and perfectly installed. I had a Subaru tinted in 2011 and in five years of ownership, there was NO bubbling or fading. Now I just got my Tesla done and it looks perfect. The ceramic tint really keeps the temps down and makes the car look really good, not to mention protect the interior. read more

I was extremely careful finding a reputable place to tint my new car. I had tints on my old car done by someone who also did a great job. For some reason, I wanted not just great, but someone who I can trust. My friend recommended me to this place and I did a quick Yelp search and realized how good Nino treats his customers and how good of a job he does. I emailed Nino for some quotes as I only needed the front 2 windows tinted. He quoted be $200 for the Pinnacle series and more importantly he ensured me that they do not need to remove the door panel on my Rx450h. His weekends are booked a month out, so I decided to come on a weekday. You pay a $50 deposit to hold onto the date as expected. When I arrived, Nino was nothing short of amazing. He went over his products and I decided to go with the Pinnacle's. 1.5 hours later we were done and a few days later, I noticed a small scuff scratch on the small passenger side window. I emailed Nino and he called me right away telling me to use a magic eraser to remove the scuff. A few days later I noticed some imperfection on my driver side window and dust bubbles on the passenger side window. I emailed Nino and worked out a date to bring it back to him. He replaced both of the tints without hesitation and now after curing, everything looks amazing. Although all the reviews here seems to say 100% bubble free and perfect...so far I can see 1 small dust bubble in 3/4 windows, but they definitely do not bother me. I know how hard it is to have a 100% dust free tint job. More importantly, I know if it bothers me, Nino will have my back. Definitely come here. The price of the tints here cost more $$$ than other tint shops, but they use great products and their reputation alone is worth it. read more

I found this place on Yelp and I am glad that I found them. I got an appointment and they went over the different types of film that I could choose from. They got my car done quickly and I am so glad to have my windows tinted again. Amazing how much easier it is to see with the sun going up or coming down. I would strongly encourage getting a band on your front window. The other benefit in getting your windows tinted beyond sun and security is that it helps protect your vehicle if someone try's to break in as the tint holds the glass together. This place also offers a warrant with their tint which is a huge plus! read more

Will have to post a review after the tint's been on for a little while, but was nothing but pleased with the service. Nino is a great guy and I felt appreciated. It's rare these days to get a handshake and a "thanks for your business." Ironically, I was at Spokes this week as well and received the same treatment there! read more

Job was done fast. Did it a few months ago and everything looks great! Black Acura TL looks perfect!

Very accomodating and Nino even offer his car for me to do my business while he is doing my tint job.. that's very exeptional attitude you cn't find in most shops.. he even redo some of my windows for free because it is covered by warranty.. everything was fixed and worth the wait. 5 stars for you sir. read more

Should be 10 stars! I'm a repeat customer - 3 times now. Don't bring you car anywhere else. Service is above and beyond, the work is A++++. Nino was able to get me in quickly and did an outstanding job. read more

Nino does great work at a competitive price in a timely manner. He had helpful advice about the window tint law and suggested the most economical route to making my car compliant. read more

I recently got my windows tinted by Umbra and I was very impressed by the quality of their work and the customer service provided. When I tried making an appointment they were booked solid till the beginning of August however if I dropped my car off first thing on 6/7 and didn't stick around their shop they could get me in within two weeks of when I originally called. This was fine by me. I dropped the car off at 8am and got it back around 3pm. When I got the car back I inspected their work to look for any bubbles or marks as requested by them and it looked perfect. The quality of the film they used was top notch and looks great on my car. I went with 35% since it is the legal tint and I couldn't be happier with the choice. I would definitely recommend these guys for their quality work, service and expertise. I am considering getting a clear bra installed on the car. read more

Nino is a master of his craft! Nice guy! Great WORK!!

This review is very overdue. Umbra did a great job with my windows. The price was reasonable and the work was done quickly! I would definitely recommend Umbra window tinting. read more

I'm very pleased with the tint job that was done on my Chrysler 300. The customer service that i received from beginning (20+ emails with questions. lol) to the finish product was outstanding. When I arrived, I still was unsure of the type of tint that I wanted. I wanted the windows to be dark but not to dark (I picked 30). He explained the different types and grades of tints. Nino also talked about the process. The color was perfect. Just what I wanted. I highly recommend Umbra Window Tinting. Nino definitely stands behind his work. read more
