Tint in Seattle Area

Has anyone gotten their M3 tinted in the Seattle area? BMW of Seattle recommended AccuTint. I am interested in hearing experiences people have had with them or other shops. I am particularly concerned with how the rear dot-matrix section is handled. If done by someone without experience it can look very sloppy.

If you still need help on the tint, shoot me a PM. Since I know the owner of the AccuTint, I can get you a better deal. I did my tint on my e90 there and my friends too. They do offer a life time warranty and cheaper price than doing it through the dealer.

The rear windshield is a PITA to tint because of the dot matrix. Make sure they black vinyl that part.

I recently got my tint done and the rear is very sloppy due to the dot matrix, the tint guy said he tried everything he could but the tint won't stick, any ideas guys?
