Worth the drive to go to WindowKote in St pete....727 522 5722 ask for Phil. This is who we use at my dealership. They put a lifetime warranty on the tint so if it ever ***** up they will fix it no questions asked for free.

I was looking into Auto Trim Design, but wasnt sure what their warranty was and if their prices were decent. I know they do alot of local police cars or something of that nature. I'll call ATD and the place in st. pete and see what prices they give me. Thanks guys.

what ever you do do not go to sunguard in port charlotte..... they are complete dicks... i got my windows tinted there and had small bubbles in the passengers side window that they refused to fix.... and a hair that was curled up in between the tint and the rear window (that was very noticible) which they also refused to fix or offer any money back..... their mistake has made them loose thousands of dollars on my other vehicles as well as multiple friends vehicles.....200 bucks a job adds up fast and everytime somebody askes me where to get it done i tell them not there.....so beware
