Tint Shops in NoVA/MD?

Group install .. Yeah if your car doesn't catch fire, we will use you as a warning .
Good get together. We are so closeby, I'm up for an impromptu anytime.

When I read your post my brain shorted to "yum groupinstall" so I think it's a sign that I need to take a break and get away from the desk.

If only it were as easy as: yum groupinstall "Dash Cam"

For another tint installer recommendation, if you are open to a bit of a hike; Dr. Tint in Hagerstown is awesome. They did my Tesla, every single piece of glass (all doors, hatch, pano roof panels, and windshield) for $505 installed. 3M Crystalline, we rubbed the 3M logo off two days after the install to ensure the job was perfect and that I was getting the product I paid for. Awesome team at Dr. Tint, if you are open to the drive up to Hagerstown

BTW, I would be in for a Dashcam install meetup, I have wanted to install the Blackvue 650 2ch for over a year, just nervous on doing it without real help.

$505 for all around 3M Crystalline - is a very good price.

That's an awesome price to tint everything with 3m Crystalline. Do you have pics of the tint and %? A contact at Dr Tint? Thanks!

I'm a bit up the road from you guys (Philly Area) but if this happens and it's after I take delivery in August I'd make the trip. Have family I could crash with in Arlington.

I got 50% all around, it is the only 3M Crystalline they have in house. Hagerstown isn't a high end tint area, so they keep their high end stock limited.

The owner usually answers the phone and I am the only Tesla they have ever done, so they will know the quote well. I just looked at the quote again and the total was $502 not $505. The car is currently at the Rockville Service center, Red Signature 85, if any one is close and wants to see it in person. It should be sitting outside for the next couple of days. The look is awesome, the windows suppress significant heat, and while I was nervous tinting the front windshield, my wife loves the glare reduction.

That looks really good! Darker than I was expecting for 50, but I really like it.

I couldn't get the best pictures. The tint looks much darker in the pictures than it actually is, the tint is still see through in the sun and I think is the perfect shade. Also, 50% is the only legal shade after you account for manufactures tint. The installer did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend the 3M Crystalline to anyone that is looking for tint. 50% was perfect for meas well.

Picking up on an old thread.... but asking for the No. VA area, specifically around Ashburn, VA.

I think I’ve narrowed it down to Photosync or Llumar FormulaOne Pinnacle. A friend of mine recommended LA Tint in Sterling, but I don’t think they do Photosync. I will call them tomorrow to confirm.

The Pinnacle is approx. $450, which from these discussions seems like a reasonable price. How does this compare with Photosync (which seems to be the favorite on this forum) in terms of price and performance? Pretty close? Also, does anyone have recommendations for an installer for Photosync?

One of my auto detailer friends recommended TLC auto detail out in Loudoun. They do photosync but they qouted me a price of my $900 for my S. In manassass there is LA Tint which quoted me $650.

Unfortunately the LA Tint in Sterling does not do Photosync. In fact, the guy I spoke to never heard of it. LOL. I'll probably just stick with Pinnacle then.

TLC Auto Detail out in Dulles, approx. $900 for Photosync

TLC Auto Detail out in Dulles, approx. $900 for Photosync

The $900 is for the Model S. It’s $1200 for the 3. They say that the back window is much bigger and they use only one sheet so the cost is higher.
