Recommendations on Tint Shop

Looking for a meticulous, experienced tinter. I have seen so many jobs guys consider quality to find terrible cut lines, or pre cut films used, trying to find someone that does really quality work. Crystaline is film that has come highly recommended, or Huper Optic. Thought id give you guys shout and see if any tinters you guys have done really good work. Im looking for someone preferably in the San Diego, Orange County Area. May travel closer to LA if need be. Thanks in advance.

You are probably better off posting in the Regional forums. Just talking out of my own experience. I ended up doing my tints 1,300 miles away from home where i had no idea where to go or who to trust, when I posted in the regional sub forum I got tons of input, including responses from tint shops themselves. G/L!

I second that. Looking for a good shop as well in the OC area. Looking for SunTek CXP, since I hear it does not affect Comfort Access, as reported by other 1M owners.

I'm here in San Diego. When you find one, let me know too. I had a really good guy do it to my E46 in 2006 but not sure if he's still in business.

San Diego Tint in Sorrento Valley (http://sdtint.com/) did both my BMW's as well as my co-workers car. I've been very happy with them and had 0 issues with my tint.

If you're near Ranch Bernardo or Scripps Ranch, PM me. We can meet at a Starbucks somewhere so you can check out my tint first hand.
