FYI folks: There is another Scion show in the works for sometime in July at Halterman's in East Stroudsburg. They're having the show as part of the grand opening for their new larger building and lot. More details to come soon.

Yo bigJim and torchedPerformance86...This is Ryan from Shades of Gray. What's up with all your negativity torwards me? First of all torched...if you had problems like you're saying with your GTI...even if you're from allentown, we would 100% stand behind everything we do, we would have fixed any window that has "bubbles" or "peeling". When did you get it done? Did you give us the chance to correct any mistakes? Mistakes happen in the tint profession. It's an imperfect process because it's an aftermarket application. When something goes wrong...that's what warranties are for! LLumar is a great product, infact it's regarded as the best in the industry. And if you supposedly know of any other TC's that have had issues...did you ask them if we tried to rectify the situation? Wether something is computer cut or handcut is completely irrelevant...that depends on the skill of the tinter. Computer cut is an expense to the business...and that's it. We don't charge more for that. It just saves us time and waste. The templates are hand designed off the factory specs. If something doesn't fit for some reason, thats where the skill of the tinter comes into play to correct flaws in any template. Hand cutting is great too...but takes more time. Still can be a stand-out job! AND to briefly educate you 2...the TC inner molding...the one you dont see, the one that doesn't do anything possitive for the design of the door panel and window set up accept collect a little extra harsh dust...has the tenancy to collect gritty material and scratch tint down the road. We want our product looking great years down the road, and for our customers to be happy always with our install...so that's the extra step we go to assure a satisfactory service. So next time you have issues with someone, or just feel like talking trash on someone you don't think is paying attention...send private messages! Don't bash businesses that don't deserve negative rep on public forums!
BTW...nice meeting you today tmrepp! Get me some pics!
Ryan

Cool, since you're a business on here, you may want to become a premium member.

Would love to. We already have the SCION banner hanging in our main bay! We tried setting it up before...to become a vendor, but never got the info we requested. We tint several Scion's a week...just check out our Scion page of our site and you'll see what I mean...and most of them say they're from SCIONLIFE.com. Let's get that going.

Ryan, nice meeting you too. I just wanted to say, that Ryan wanted to rectify any problem with a tint job that he did. He's not here to cause bs drama, but only to get to the bottom of what happened with Rob's GTI.
