they're more expensive than the average place, but with tint you get what you pay for. 250+

I bought a groupon earlier this year thinking I was going to put on my FRS. I ended up not using it since the car comes with just enough tint for my liking. It's for 5 window tinting at Rob's Glass Tinting, a value of $275. If anyone is interested in buying it from me, let me know. I got it for $99. Expires Apr 17, 2013.

Reviews are pretty good (also, check out their pics. they got a whole bunch of nba players getting their tints done there): http://www.yelp.com/biz/robs-glass-t...-culver-city-3
Here's the groupon deal i got: http://www.groupon.com/deals/robs-glass-tinting

How did you get hustled?

I want to know because if I find a valid reason to why I want to return the Groupon, I can get my money back. Apparently, they only accept returns if the business is at fault for your dissatisfaction. So much for their "Groupon Promise".. It's not as easy as they make it sound to return. I bought it in the first place because I thought it would've been hassle-free but I was wrong.

I'll call in to see if they try to hustle me as well and if they do, ka-ching! I get my money back from Groupon.

Wow great reviews. I might jump on this groupon.. I doubt this company would shaft you because you used a Groupon considering its repuation would be at risk. 4.5star and 54 reviews is pretty damn good.

edit: on their website they have some 99$ special so the groupon may not save anything.

The web special deal is actually a better deal. You get premium Greystone film as opposed to the groupon which is their cheaper film. If you bought the groupon the price to upgrade to the premium film is $60, bringing the total to $159. I was told the deal runs till the end of the year, but if you buy the voucher you can bring your car in anytime after and it never expires.
