Default Tint shops in NN (yes, another thread)

Before everyone jumps all over me, I searched and went through all the results and the only names I heard come up for places in Newport News was Willie's Mobile, Just Tint, and someone made a reference to a place named Stuart's Tint which I think is supposed to be in the NN area.

Anyone know of any other tint shops in NN area that are worth calling? I don't want to go on the other side of the water, unless TNT is open on weekends because a lot of people seem to like them as well. Plus what can I expect to pay for 20-35% tint on a sedan at these places?

Seemed like a lot of people were happy with Willie's, but sounds like he's a little expensive too.

Main things I'm worried about is the dot-matrix at the top of the rear window, looking for a place that can tint that or at least put a strip of black vinyl over it or something. Other than that, want a 1 piece rear, and the 3rd brake light REMOVED and not just cut around.

thanks in advance..

i had my formula tinted by a place over in norfolk. they did 5% all around. 1 piece rear, and it has a life time warrenty. oh, it was 140. which isnt bad. TNT wouldnt do mine, they said they would only go 35% all around. if you want the name of the place, pm me. i dont wanna toss out their name, since its kinda illegal to do anything darker than 35%

I had my suburban tinted by willies. I was not impressed at all. I had it done 20% and the tint quality is not as nice as my truck which I had done a few years ago at solar pro. It doesnt match my factory tint like I requested. It has no bubbles or anything just dont like the tint he put on.Go to bay custom. I've seen some good work come out of there

I had my tint done at bay custom too. It turned out great and the price was good considering it took him 4 hours to scrape the old stuff off.
