Anybody know of a good tint shop around SoCal that will do 30 % tint? I have called around and most only carry either 35% or 20%. I think 35% is a little too light and 20% is way too dark for me. I called a mobile tint place called OC Tinting that does 30% Johnson tint for $199 but I do not know of anybody that has experience with them. So anybody know of a good one? Thanks in advance.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND ASTRO ECLIPSE

THEY SCRATCHED MY WINDOW (DRIVER SIDE) AND CLAIMED THAT IT WAS LIKE THAT WHEN I TOOK MY CAR IN...BULLSHIT!!!! I WASHED MY CAR ALMOST EVERY WEEK WHEN I FIRST GOT IT AND PAID ATTENTION TO EVERY LITTLE THING. HOW COULD NOT NOTICE ABOUT THE SCRATCH ON MY WINDOW, ESPECIALLY ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THESE GUYS ARE SHADY. I WOULD NEVER GO BACK TO THEM AGAIN.

BTW, THEY ARE NOT SPECIALIZED IN CAR TINTING...THEY ARE MORE FOR BUSINESS/HOME WINDOW TINTING.

I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE GO TO ASTRO ECLIPSE!!!!! BEWARE...
