They have done my cars since 2002 and I've never had a bad experience. Their job performance and quality of workmanship are second to none. Had two of my cars tinted there today and I couldn't be happier with how they came out. I highly recommend them to anyone who is expecting the best you can get.

I just had them tint my Audi A3 at the Dumont shop, and I am beyond satisfied. The precision, craftsmanship, and customer service are as phenomenal today as they were back then. Sam’s is a true local staple. 10/10 recommendation!

I have been using Sam for almost 10 years on all my vehicles. Sam is an absolute pleasure to say the least! He was extremely accommodating and flexible getting me scheduled. Once the truck arrived he knocked everything out in an hour and a half! Truck came out looking like it was manufactured with the tints.
