Did mine at Bellevue Auto Tint...bit pricey ($240 after tax) but he takes his time and does a really good job. Have had it for over a year and half with no issues. Also ditto on the no shave stuff....he did it in such a way that you don't see the edge at the top.

I only got 35% though (super light I know) but i've never had any harassment about it which makes me happy

Prestige doesn't file down the tint but they have a smaller cut than other shops. $175 is what I've gotten for us at Prestige. Just mention Andrew on evolutionm for the price.

Last post Oct 26th, hmmm. I too am looking for a good tint place in SeaTac and I'll check out the recommendations here. When I was living in San Diego, I went to Tint Devil on Mira Mar Road. Excellent work. It was about $50/window, so 7 "windows". The rear was a few dollars more as they had to remove the rear wiper assembly. Do the math. Expensive? Depends. I bought the HP True Grey: http://www.1-2tint.com/true_grey/true_grey.htm and was eternally happy. High quality film. High quality installation. Some people like purple bubble tint. Not me.

I went to Aspen downtown. I was treated VERY well. As a matter of fact, he was supposed to be closed before I could make it but he stayed open longer to get my car in. He has been in buisness for over 20 years so his Lifetime garuntee should actually have some meaning. Compared to a shop offereing liftime gaurantee that has only been open a few months. He can file the edges for you but you don't need it. I did not get it and it goes all the way to edge completley and totally even. 100% quality and I am really picky. I have only had the tint a little over a year but it is still 100% as it should be. He offers a decent price as well. I remmeber it being cheaper then most of the other places I called. I paid a little more to have the highest quality materials.

HOPE THIS LINK WORKS...

EDIT: NVM, here is the website: www.aspentinting.com

My tint done at Prestige is wonderful. It wasn't filed but you couldn't tell; the cut line is that small. Still going for $175 with high quality tint + lifetime warranty for you guys. The deal won't be around much longer though.

you think there might be a reason that alot of cars sport VTR stickers. I wouldnt even think of having another shop work on my evo. they do great work at a very reasonable price.
