No prior experience, but I've heard nothing but excellent reviews about Tropic Window Tinting, I believe they are in Union, NJ.

Let us know if any of the guys you see on TV actually work on your car. One of my good friends in the hip-hop industry gets alot of work done there - and I heard the only time you see Remy or someone we see on TV alot work on your car is when you drop at least $25k or more in work with them.

I've driven past their shop a few times, only to get work done at my friend's stereo shop in Holbrook, NY.

haha well a girl picked up the phone and scheduled me in for something and i dont think ive ever seen her on the show. she said she has a guy come in to do the tinting and the rate was really good(200 to tint everything). But i assume since its such a big name they cant screw something up. Hopefully those aren't my last words.

Caution - since they have so much work, they are using freelancers to do much of the low end stuff. Who knows who'll tint you. Best of luck.

went to tropic and made an appointment for next Wednesday. They seem like good people and the pictures all over their wall with just about every exotic car ever with their tint on it didn't hurt. The owner( I think it was the owner) was working on a 535 as I walked in. So they instantly had my business.

Yeah they've been in business over 15 years and they've done ALOT of high end cars. You cannot go wrong with them. If you had a problem with Unique, then you'd have a 1-2hr drive on your hands depending on traffic + tolls.
