Question Window Tint In East Bay?

Anybody recommend a good tint shop with great prices in the east bay? More specifically Livermore/Concord/WC/PH or even Benicia.

Vince @ Omega Tintwerks in pleasonton

(925) 227-1322
3723 Old Santa Rita Rd, #16, Pleasanton, CA 94588

You can search his shop here and a lot of people recommend him.

IMO, Vince is a perfectionist, he will take his time to get the job done right the first time, and he won't let you leave unless he has done the absolute best that he can on your windows.

Yep, heard great things. I'm assuming he won't tint the two front windows on a two door coupe though? How is his pricing?

He'll tint whatever you want him to, you just run the risk of getting cited etc. He won't be held responsible for tinting it, as it should be. right?

Pricing depends if you want the Metallic tint or Ceramic tint.

Ceramic is suppose to be better, it won't interfere w/ your radio, cell phone and car alarm. Not that metallic tint really effs with it a whole lot anyways in certain areas.

I used to have a car w/ metallic tint. In certain areas in the city my car alarm wouldn't work until I was 5-10ft away from my car. Now with the ceramic tint, I can use my remote from a good block away consistently.

What does Vince charge roughly at Omega? Any I-Club discount? Have a few vehicles I'd love to bring to him...
