haha yea dont get me wrong, AWESOME place for audio, had a custom enclosure done on mine. just dont go there for tints

they did offer to redo it, but if i went back it would have been the 3rd time... and the drive for me was not worth it

I actually don't have his number. I see him every week at the Friday night drive. I will outreach to his crew and ask for his contact info and provide it to you.

He's about to cash out! I'd like his info as well. Sounds like he's in SC though, it'd give me a good excuse to go down there

Would love to get the vinyl guy number as well. Please let me know.

Maybe if there's enough of us he'd be willing to come our way a bit

That would be great if he could. I'm sure if there were like, 4 or 5 of us he'd do it. And I have a couple friends (non fr-s/brz owners) who also need their windows tinted, so that's another 2 at least.... Window tint group buy. He'd probably go home with like, $1000+ cash in his pocket.

Wow!! Ok everybody, I'm in discussion with this guy to set up some sort of tint day. Will create a thread separately so this can be arranged if he's down.

I called Omega yesterday, how much did u guys pay for all 5 windows??

smmmurf · 02-10-2013, 03:34 PM

Vince Tran @ Omega Tintwerks. Best quality work I have seen!

Paid $300 for my STI a long time ago, almost $400 for my dad's new Plug-in Prius but it has 7 huge windows. lol

BigFatFlip · 02-10-2013, 05:03 PM

For the folks who've already got theirs done, do you guys get some "startburst" or light refraction at night from lights. I think its from the thin "line" bubbles that form between the tint and the rear defrosters? The guy I went to insists that he can't do anything about it since the defrosters on our cars are on the thicker side. This was my first tint job, just just trying to gauge his BS...

Are you talking about how any lights in your rearview mirror get spread out up and down the back window, almost aligned with the defroster lines? If that's what your talking about then I get that on this car and a previous car I had tinted. I thought it was just one of the things that comes with having tinted windows.
