Default Window Tinting

I'm looking to get mine done very soon, any recommendations in the Lynnwood /Everett /Mill Creek area?

Also any suggestions of % of tint? I don't want to black it out, just a modest tinting!??????

Thanks Wes

Nice car guy that works out of his shop at his home. Done 4 of my cars of the years. Has done quite a few vettes and other nice rigs. He will likely recommend the 20% (or maybe it's 15% or 25% can't exactly remember). 35% is better for night-time driving but the 20% looks killer on my Grand National and Vette. Tell 'em Dan with the GN sent ya.

Howdy fellow GTG gang member. I was very impressed by Andy at Prestige Window Tinting in Lynnwood. He did my vette and spent a lot of time making sure the rear glass came out perfect (lots of heat shrinking to get it to conform back there). http://www.prestigetinting.com/

I went with 20%, which is a little darker than the 35% allowed in WA but I love the looks of it and it is awesome in the daylight. The only time I don't care for the 20% is when I am driving on unlit side streets after dark as it makes it hard to see pedestrians. When driving in these areas, i roll down my window when turning.

Best of luck.
