Default Melbournites, I Need a Good Tint Shop

Is the Shadey Lady still the best in town or should I go some where else? I'm hoping to get it down some time this week.

Explicit Customs on 192 adjacent to the Melbourne Sq. mall. Bill is the only one to touch my cars for tint. I will pm his # when I get home tonight.

Woah! If you hadn't commented, Lou, I wouldn't have even considered that place. I was out running some errands today and drove by it. There were all kinds of retarded cars out front and a bunch of teenie boppers running around.

Are you going to be at Doubles on Wednesday? If so, I'll stop by and show you the new ride.

I'm just as picky as Lou when it comes to people touching my cars.

I may come out there Wednesday but I won't have the car with me because she has no tires on it. I sold the BFG drag radials that I just put on there and ordered some MT 315 drags but they are out of stock.

So I am sporting some 16X8 salad shooters on the back until they come in.

What did you get Cassie?

I won't be mowing faces until the weekend.

I didn't know Shady Lady was still in business but
they did one of my cars back in '87 and the tint is
still hanging tough. Of course the people and the
product are probably both different today....

:yup: They're still around. I had them do a car for me about 4 years ago. It looked great. That's why I was thinking about going back to them.

Bill @ Explicit takes great pride in his window tint. While you're there you can check out his body dropped fullsize with an LT1/T56 swap and his 02 Silverado with an aluminum 5.7 LS1 swap. Definately good people.

I actually got quotes from both places and they were exactly the same. Since you all have had good luck with Explicit, I'll give them a try. Thanks for the recommendation.

Lou, I'll call your cell and see if you're at Doubles on Wednesday. It's not far from my parents' house and you know the Pac clan always has to represent.

I will be up there around 6:30 it has been awhile since I have been there. I will be in stealth mode with the truck so drinking beer and eating sounds like a plan.
