Fresh Tint
Well, I finally, got my car in to Mingo, here in Houston,and everyone this guy does great work, I had the crap old tint removed and everything redone, along with wrapping the lower facia on the back and mirrors, and had all the rear tail and marker lights tinted. The pics do not do justice to the job he did, I highly recommend this guy.

Looks like he did one heck of a job. Wish we had someone around here that was really good at installing tint on the C5s.

I had mine done just under 2 years ago at a supposed to be reputable shop, it looked pretty bad and was getting worse, I was really glad to have it finally done right, it was always bugging me, what I respected about him was he won't even attempt to do the tint unless its sunny, he told me this was due to the rear dots.

Glad you got a good job also. Read the many horror stories on here. I picked my guys brain good and watched the whole time. It seems that most of the bad jobs are either rushed or they just don't know what they are doing. My guy said that the doors are harder than the back glass as far as shrinking properly.

Agree. Unless of course it is a vert. In my case the windows are rarely ever seen. I have a great looking tint on my car but if the top has to be up then the car stays in the garage for the most part. I don't think I even have a photo of my windows but it reminds me to take one this weekend!
