I have always had Llumar tint on all my cars and have always loved it. I'm getting ready to tint the new car this week, but have been told about a few other companies out there.
All I care about is that it doesn't do any of the following:
1) Fade
2) Crack
3) Peel
4) Interfere with Nav
5) The installer MUST microedge all the windows as well. This is a must, as it's the only way I like my windows tinted.

I got LLumar too. Go w/ FormulaOne Pinnacle tint buddy.
Micro edging will be done by that ArtofTint guy in NY, supposedly does tint for high-end cars like Lambo, Ferrari and all. I think he used SolarGuard tint.

So it's either Llumar or Huber Optik. Good to know. Nobody picked Solar Gard or SunTek. I guess I'll go with Llumar, which is what I've always had. Thanks.

I can see what a difficult decision this must be for you Cal...I mean, we all want the darkest tint for you so you dont continue to scare young children on the road anymore...I say just use LIMO TINT...
