Default Tinter in New Orleans Area

Need a tinter in the New Orleans area. Spoke to my guy today and he just tints right over the matrix. Says sometimes the white dots show and sometimes not. He has done several of my other vehicles in the past and all came out great, but don't want to risk it with the vette.

Also, if using vinyl to cover matrix, does it go inside or outside the glass?

How much is everyone paying? I was quoted $199 for tint, no vinyl.

Then there's "Sun Guard" in Picayune, on Hwy-11, about 45-50 miles from N.O. He did mine, pretty good with the dot matrix, but not perfect. 601-799-2648, their number....
