I highly recommend getting all of your stereo needs taken care of from these guys. Amazing work and it sounds great. Don't bother with Foss audio and especially Car Toys. Car…

Raphael has always gone above and beyond when working on any of mine and my families vehicles. Swift and reliable services at a reasonable cost. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else at all. Hands down best in town for tint and paint corrections.

Got my GR Corolla tinted here 2 months ago and it still looks just as perfect. Rafa helped me with the whole process. I showed up on an impulsive whim as I live right down the road, and seeing the shop there had been sitting in the back of my mind for years. Really glad I went.
Rafa was patient, kind, and knowledgeable about absolutely everything I had questions about. He explained the difference between ceramic tint, and normal tint, what is legal in the state of WA, and showed me examples from his own vehicle in different lighting, to the vehicles they were working on in the shop to make sure I was confident in my choice before I committed.
I left my car, and got it back hours later looking perfect. I highly recommend them to my friends and anyone looking to get a tint done on their vehicle.
