Any Good window tint places in North Dallas?

Looking for a good place near my work (Addison) to get decent window tints for a good price (100-200$). I just moved here from Chicago, and I know it's not hot for you Texans yet, but it's already getting to me. Any suggestions would be appreciated, Thanks!

It's a bit of a drive from Addison but go to Tritek in Garland. Any car enthusiast will tell you they are hands down the best in the DFW. I've had all my cars tinted there since my first car back in high school. Also, they can go lower than 35 if that's an option you're looking for. They offer multi-year warranties as well as lifetime if you need any of those type of options. I believe they offer ceramic tinting too if you want to get really fancy.

Tritek in Garland has done all of my window tinting on my cars. Really solid work and they are car enthusiasts as well.

I spent $300 on Formula One Pinnacle tint at Sun Busters in Austin. It's all ceramic and all you have to do is use a heat gun on the different types for the product to sell itself. It's a bit pricey, but has a lifetime warranty and is OUTSTANDING at keeping out the heat. My car is really really cool at all times in the sun.

Once I go down to one sticker in November, I'm having my windshield done with clear ceramic. It's absolutely worth every penny. Only downside is it does not go quite as dark as other tints, but it's still dark enough. Keeping the heat out was my goal.

I know this doesn't help you location wise for tint, but I wanted to just share my experience with using ceramic tint and I don't think I will use any other now.

I've had two Outbacks done there ( Coit / Plano Parkway).... Seems to be quality job..we had to slightly change material due to a supply shortage, so if you go there be sure to call ahead and verify that they have the grade you are interested in.

I did the same. My rear window looks a bit funny, I need to take it to them to see if its the tint or something else. either way lifetime warranty so no big deal.
