Tinted my windows

Finally got my windows tinted after months of having my car. I will post pics tomorrow. I wanted to let some local people know that Top Edge of Smithtown NY took care of me and like always did a fantastic job. If any one needs their windows done I highly recommend them.

It's funny you should say this. The guy who did my tint is top notch and has not screwed up one of the 10 cars he has done for me. My last car was an Acura TL and he needed to intall the molestrip I believe it was called. This time he said he had to remove the inside molding strip in the window jam to install the tint. I trust him. Will let you know if any thing is scratched.
