Question Detailers and tint installers in DFW?

Need a detail on my truck and tint for my wife's MB.

My truck hasn't had a good detail in a couple of years, so it has a bunch of small scratches/swirls, the hood is getting a bit dull, chrome wheels need a good cleaning etc. etc. I'll probably take car of the interior myself when I'm putting in Dynamat, or something similar, in the next few months so detailing the exterior is what I really need right now.

The 08 MB C350 needs a tint which will last a long time and the person installing needs to know what he is doing. It's my wife's car, so it needs to be perfect for a long time, you know... Thinking about going slightly darker than legal, too.

I know there are at least some detailers on here, but for the life of me I can't think of the names right now , but feel free to chime in and/or PM me prices. Location is not necessarily a deciding factor, but the closer to Denton, the better, of course. Being mobile is a plus.

Thanks!

Flexshield in Denton is VERY good. My next choice would be tritek if i was in dallas. If you go to Flexshield tell them Patrick from Frostys in the GXP sent you and ask to see the WoW box!

And yes, Brian aka Badcomp for a hellacious detail!

Thanks! I actually was referred to them a few weeks ago regarding the vinyl wrap on the roof of my daughter's MB. Haven't gone there yet, so I guess I'll pay them a visit. Need to call Tritek, too, I guess...

For some reason it never showed up as a missed call or a voicemail until this morning. The voicemail is there but no missed call. I'll give you a call shortly, my apologies.

Thanks for the call earlier today, Brian! Let's see what we can do.

Haven't needed tinting done in a while, but damn...

Tritek quoted 149 for three year warranty film or 199 for better grade film with lifetime warranty film whereas FlexShield said 179 or 369.

Speaking of which, I havent gotten tint done in a long time as well. I need to remove the driver and passenger tint and replace with legal tint on my TA. Anyone have a ballpark figure for that in Houston?

I've used Tritek for my last few tints with great results.
