Default Tints in Chicago

Looking for a good tint shop with good service that knows how to tint a 997 properly in the city. I live in the Loop area.

He does great work. Does paint protection film too. His buddy at Lustr (Ivan) does all the detailing services.

If you don't want to come out to the burbs, maybe Nino can recommend a shop in the loop area.

Ivan does mobile detailing, too, FYI.

Happy new year!

Im right off 290 so the drive to Schaumburg shouldn't be too bad especially if this weather stays above the 40's.

I'll call them tomorrow and get a quote. I'm thinking 35%. I don't want drug dealer dark.

He has them all, including the ceramic tints. Warranties his work for life.

Nino did my ceramic window and rear taillight tint too. He and Ivan at LUSTR have a good thing going there. Supermode, Ivan did my paint correction you saw and detailed my wheels. I have him scheduled already for a spring refresh.

Thanks for the Umbra recommendation. I got them done last week and I love the results! Nino is a good guy.

Shaded Days in Lake Bluff is great. Mark is very honest and straightforward. I also HIGHLY recommend Lustr for detailing/paint correction. Been going to Ivan for years.

I keep hearing good things about Lustr. I haven't detailed my car since I got it so I should be making an appointment with them soon.

My annual appt with Ivan at LUSTR is this first week in April. He's filling up fast so book soon if you want to get it done before summer.
