Best place for tint - south end?

Hello everyone, I'm looking to get my Evo tinted along with my gf's Integra so I thought I would see if anyone has had good experiences with any place around Kent/Auburn/Fife/Puyallup area. I'd like my Evo to leave with as many scratches as it has type of thing (none) Also what % is everyone going with these days, 15%? 20%? Cheers

Dealer Xpress in Auburn did a good job for me. I am running 5%.

I haven't been stopped for it yet, although when I was stopped for something else the cop mentioned it.

But I drive A LOT, really no problems.

Sweet, and hot damn 5% - If I remember correctly that means only 5% light passes through? Thanks for the info guys! My car needs a tint pretty bad.. but the gf won't let me do my car unless hers gets done first (or at the same time!)

Dealer Xpress is $160-180! Best price around plus lifetime warranty. They will charge you a little more for the BMW.

a little offtopic but, what are you guys paying for window tinting all the way around, excluding the windshield ofcourse? I got quoted $475 for some lifetime warranty tint. I did not think tinting was that expensive.

Is there much of a noticeable difference between 20% and 25%? I'm thinking 20% all the way around but dont know if it will be too dark.

Part of me is still thinking to keep it clear cause it makes the car look cleaner.
