I know this is an old post, but folks look here for tips. Here's one, I had my 87 Coupe done in August 09 at Midway Chevrolet on Bell Rd + I-17. They had a sale for $129.99, plus $20 more for a visor stripe across the top of the windshield. That's half price and I got a good quality Solar Guard tint and an excellent fit. Went legal 35% on side door windows and 20% on the fast-back, so I can still see out at night. Too dark can actually absorb more heat and the medium reflects the same UV and keeps the car just as cool in our AZ summers. At Midway, ask for the Accessories manager. 602-387-7572.

Friday I met with Chris from A Darker Shade again with the C6 at the Chads house and once again Chris did a fantastic job on my new ride.
If you call him for tint be sure to tell him your with ACE and he'll take care of you, I know I he will be my first choice from now on!

Maybe it has to do with the amount of business they have in May, June and thru the summer months. If you're going to get it done maybe a little planning and getting it done in Jan or Feb when a ton of others aren't calling em too.

I called Chris and left a message. No call back. I'm self employed and I understand business needs but failure to return a call is inexcusable. I'll be calling someone else tomorrow.

In Chris' defense I think the last time he didn't call back he was out of town on a family emergency or some such thing.

I feel your pain but I sure hope you get the same quality and price.

I used JR at Supreme Tint. Great service and excellent work. 602.550.8468

I had the same issue more than once with Chris that you did.

I just had my Z tinted and I'm very happy with the quick response to my call, the courtesy of the owner and the quality of the material and care he took in making the back window "primo". I went with a non metalic, carbon material.

I'd never even think to give this a try after watching what he goes through.

As it turns out, he's been in the biz for over 20 years and spoke at length about the days when there wasn't any of those little dots (frit?) around the border of the glass and how one of the most difficult ones are the C4 back window.
In his experience THE most difficult is a Porsche 944 back window.

In spite of how may percieve me, and I can't imagine why...lol, this time I'd like to pass along "a good thing":

Always good to get a personal recommendation John!

[LastC3]

John .... what side of town is he on .....??? I have an air bubble forming a run on my back window ... don't know if they can repair or replace ...??

thx for the lead .....

[az-gold]

He covers the whole valley.

I met up with him on the west side at Accurate Auto Glass's shop at 91st Ave and Peoria.

I'd give him a call and see what he says in any case.

I cant recall the name of the guy that did my C4, but he did a great job. I have his bus. cards in my C4 and will have them with me at the Sonic this PM. He lives in the queen Creek area. He removed the old tint and put the new stuff on with a warentee for $140.00.

[LastC3]

any update on this topic ......... my lil bubble run is running up the back window .... not only a little annoying ... but looks like hell as well .????

I have Huper Drei on ALL my cars. There's simply not a better tint on the market for heat rejection. None.

I get it done at Danny's Carousel (I know the manager). Call and ask for Bryce at the Bell Rd / 91st Ave(?) store, tell him Greg Childs sent you. Great guys there.

There's really no reason to put junk tint on a Vette. Huper is the good stuff (got it on my house as well).

X2 for Bryce at Danny's Carwash.
101 and Bell. Just got mine done. Was around $300 for back and both sides. Not 100% sure on exact price since insurance was involved.
