Default Window tinter in Boise?

Want to get my car tinted but down here in Mt. Home the locals can't tint the rear with 1 piece. The guy told me today probably 3 pieces! Can anyone recommend a good tint shop in Boise that can do a 1 piece tint in the rear 5% and 20 on the sides? Thanks in advance

Yeah, Ace Auto Glass SUCKS. They can tint the rear hatch in 2 pieces, but they do a poor job at hiding the seam (they try to match it with a defrost line, but they have to freehand it). Only had the tint for a year, and it's beginning to peel on the driver's side.

The dude with a mullet who tinted my car actually did a poor job the first time around and I had him re-do the passenger side window. He was all upset but I wasn't hearing his lame excuses. I don't care if they aren't called "bubbles" in tint-speak, just FIX THEM. What a tool.

Thanks Tony, I'll call them this afternoon and see if I can bring my car in next week. Sorry to hear that Night....the though of spending your hard earned cash on something that is half asses just pisses me off. Hopefully Sunset can get it in one piece!
