Ok, so I got my car back. I'll tell my first impressions.

1- I had it done yesterday, so I wanted to avoid traffic by going the local route via directions from mapquest. It was more confusing than it had to be if some cities would just put a sign up in the correct manner telling you what street you're on. So, not knowing where this place is made it a real ***** to get to, and it's in an awful location in terms of accesibility.

2- It's pretty much a one-man show, Russian immigrant (or somewhere else that has a Slavic accent). Rents out space from a car repair shop, but in his corner he'll show you all of his options which are plenty. I chose 15% privacy from the work he did on his on car which I thought looked pretty sweet (I later found out that BMWs have tint already which made his windows even darker. But it's dark enough for me still).

3- Picked up my ride today, windows looked fabulous and I was definately satisfied. The red on my SC looks ridiculous now. He left all the warranty info in my glovebox. Paid 186 with tax and I'd recommend him to anyone. It's just a ****ing hassle to get to.

When saying "All around", does it mean all windows except for the front windshield? I'm a little gun shy tinting the rear window because of fear of damaging the defroster. Anyone tinted their rear window without problem?

Dont worry about the rear window, it will be perfectly fine. And yes usually people leave the front non-tinted due to it being illegal and attracts cops attention more than if you go before the legal 35% tint limit.
