Need a good tint guy in SA

Anyone know of a good tint guy in SA with reasonable prices? Not too keen on having the dealer do it and the Mother's Tint commercials make me not want to go there...

Had my last couple done at customs sounds on San Pedro - planning on heading back there when my M3 arrives unless I get it down at the dealership in Austin (couldn't handle San Antonio BMW anymore).

BMW of SA has definitely taken a turn for the worse since being acquired by Principle Auto. The service manager and many of the better service advisors have left. Case in point, my M4 needed and oil change the can resistor recall and I had a rattle from the exhaust. Called them for an appointment and the nearest was 1 month away. I waited the month and dropped the car off at 0730. Not a peep from them all day so I called back at 1845. They said that they wouldn't be able to even look at my car for about a week! The appointment is just an appointment to drop the car off and get a loaner and then they get to your car when they can. That is ridiculous! To their credit, I spoke with the service manager and he got things moving but they have still had my car for 6 days...

I don't trust them to get the tint done....may take a month. I may have to start driving to Austin for service.

Good to hear they are consistent from sales through service... Definitely take a look at Custom Sounds. Had my current truck and gtr done by them - both holding up well and look good. No affiliation, just a satisfied customer. Good luck (with the tint and BMWSA)

ETA if you come across another shop let us know - always good to have options!

Space, did you ever get your tint done? I can take care of you with premium ceramic tint and a veteran installer. Your car will be in good hands where I'm at. Shoot me a pm or post here...
