Contact Vs motorsports, they have a guy who comes in and tints while you wait. He is very anal and did my old 335i and my m3 both came out great, and pricing isn't bad as well

VS works. Most Chicago guys see Nino at Umbra Tinting in Schaumburg. Seriously 90% of the members on here use him - at least on the E90post side.
