I went to Lorenzo's in the Bronx and he did an awesome job tinting my GS at 35%. I don't think he offers 25% or 30% so you may have to opt for 20% if you feel 35% is not dark enough. You can also try to PM the member, GSoup, as he knows a guy that can do it for cheap around NYC.

$300 or $350... I forget. He used Madico film, which is a hybrid type of film and is supposedly just as good, if not better, than ceramic film.

Yeah, I have heard of Lorezo's before. My neighbor recommended them to me last year, but couldn't remember the name.

I know they do top quality work, but I was hoping to spend closer to $200 as opposed to $350. The difference is taking away from other mods like new springs, rims and tires.

PM GSoup, his guy is on Dyckman and it was around $100, I have a guy who did mine (30% front, limo rear) on 172nd and Jerome in the Bx for $100 as well... Both shops did quality work and come with a guarantee....
