Where to get windows tinted in Burlington, MA area?

Where should I get my windows tinted in the Framingham, MA area?

I have heard decent things about Tint-King in Billerica... anyone have any experience there? Or any other suggestions?

Thanks!

Been to Tint King back in spring 2012, had good service and no issues with the quality to date. The location of the business is not your typical store front, they are in a townhouse type condo using the garage in the rear.

What tint level can you get in MA without having to worry about flunking inspection or harassment from officer friendly?

Thanks!

I went to tint king. Very reasonable. I was happy with the job they did, and they stood by their work. Small shop in a weird location, but if you can get by that, you'll be just fine

Solar Solutions in Bedford. 3 cars done there so far. From last time I compared, more reasonable pricing than Tint King. 35% visibility all around is legal in MA.

Just went to Solar Solutions today for my F30, they are fast, professional, and do a great job. Quoted me $180.
I was in and out in about an hour.
Very impressed by their work for the $$$

What tint level did you get and can you post a picture as I don't know what the MA acceptable looks like vs what you need a doctors note for.

If you've done your homework and know which kind and brand of tint you'd like for your car, that can determine where you go for tinting. Most tint shops carry only one, maybe two, brands. Tint King carries four or five. I got exactly the tint types and brands I wanted on my car and TK did an excellent job. If you don't particularly know or care about what the different types or brands are, then just go to the cheapest place that does a decent job. TK is the best known and best respected tint shop in the region, and they've been around a long time. Randy, one of the tint techs who work there, won first prize in an international tint competition in 2013. He did my F30 in June and I have no complaints.

No, I have no financial interest in TK.

I did one step darker, above legal, and it def blurs the line between legal and illegal. It still looks good and I don't think cops will be giving me shit anytime soon.
will post a pic soon
