I didnt have a choice because it was sitting in the showroom with them already but the quality is spot on. It even gets a label with the % of tint so there is no issue with the police and iv liked them so far.

The plus side is the warranty.

Window tint should in no way effect the warranty whether it is installed at port or aftermarket. Most reputable shops with a quality brand tint will come with a lifetime warranty against bubbles and fading, so if the tint you are getting only lasts the manufactures warranty you may be not getting as good of a deal as aftermarket.

My frs actually had tint and i told them to take it off or Im walking. I told them I could drive down the street and get legal tint for $200 best quality with lifetime warranty. I opted for ceramic tint though because summer in GA is too hot for me.

PS. $399 for legal regular tint just silly
