Default Tint in North Jersey?

Anyone know of a decent tint shop in northern NJ? (Bergen County a plus) I plan on doing 20% all around. Prices would be helpful too

Just a heads up on the front window tint. My XB is fully tinted and I just got failed on inspection for having the driver and front passenger window tinted. No tint is allowed in NJ. It ____es me off, because the cops don't really push it, but if they do pull you over they will give you a ticket for it, and if your car is due for inspection they will fail it for any tint.

good luck,

Yeah, I'm aware of the no-front-window-tint thing... I could easily get a medical variance from my dermatologist though. NJ does allow for that.

IceNine - not to change the subject or anything, but where did you get your supercharger done?

Liberty Toyota on the PA/NJ border

www.libertytoyota.com

Highly recommend 'em. Took a little longer than 8 hours. Keith, the service manager there, is the nicest guy you'll ever meet. Mine was the first TC they ever did, which kind of turned me off at first... But he said he has the reflasher (which he did) and all the stuff necessary.

Bottom line, glad I took it there. The guy who did the install said it was "very straightforward."

They charge like $65/hr labor for Scions, which is cheap compared to my area ($92+). If you go there, talk to Keith Robinson, tell him you got a glowing recommendation from Karl Weckstrom.

i got my mazda6 done at sam's window tinting in hawthorne
its right on goffle road
i dont have their number
but they're work is perfect
they dont cut the tints with a razor blade
they look up your car on the comp
and they laser cut the film to your windows specs
it comes out perfect and the guys are cool
my mazda came out to 225 for back windows and two front
i highly recommend them and im getting my scion done
maybe we can all meet up and get it done together whoever's around
