Spoke to Garrett on the phone a few times. He was very friendly and patient. We waited a couple months for the on-site movie theater renovation to be complete before making the trek out there with 2 cars. It's was a 45 minute drive each way and since we'd be waiting for both cars to be finished, we wanted to be comfortable while we waited. Garrett verified our insurance and got all the approvals while I was on the phone with him before we went to the shop, nice! Here's our story.
We arrived on time and met by office staff then the owner. We talked about the type and darkness of the tint and the type of windshield to be used. I thought it was going to go sideways for a minute because he sounded a bit defensive, but then I realized, he is a nice guy, talkative, informative, cares about his business and wants his customers to be totally informed (totally) and know what they are getting. This is a good thing.
We handed over the keys and were immediately invited to the lobby of the movie theater. Now, this isn't an AMC or Harkins type lobby or theater, it's a bit smaller, so keep your expectations realistic. On the other hand, it's pretty incredible! They have a glass-front refrigerator full of water and a variety of canned sodas, tons of candy, a freezer case full of ice cream, coffees, popcorn and more. Oh yea!! And unlike the regular movies, EVERYTHING HERE IS FREE! Sweet (literally!). Okay, re-raise those expectations, it was amazing! The movie E.T. was being played, great throwback! The theater itself only holds about 12-16 people. At least it did when I was there. I think they are expanding it. It's dark in there. Ya, it's a theater, I know it's supposed to be dark. But I mean, it's crazy dark, don't miss the seat with your back-side and accidentally end up on the floor because you can't see. True story! The seats are comfortable and recline. Ya, many regular theaters don't even do that. They each have a cup holder and ..... wait, I'm reviewing an auto-glass place and going on about the in-house movie theater,....bottom line, this was awesome, now onto the glass stuff.
The owner walked me through the various types of glass they offer, where they come from, the high-end adhesive they use, how the industry works, how many cars they do, his future plans, etc, etc. He was super talkative and since I'm not exactly "concise" myself, our conversation was, let's say "robust" and lasted a while; I enjoyed it. The glass in the first car was installed beautifully. Super clean job, the moldings all look great, fit is spot-on, rear-view mirror is perfect, rock solid. They gave good instructions on removing the tape, washing the car, etc for the next few days. It's been a couple weeks and all is still excellent. I used the "free tint" offer on a different car from the one they did the windshield in. It was super cool they were cool with me doing that (ya, 2-cools in one sentence, worth it). The tint guy was awesome! He tinted with the darkness percentage I requested and did a fantastic job! The borders are excellent, close and tight. The tint is smooth and clear and dark. Super high quality job. I instantly noticed a temperature difference and have gotten tons of compliments on how the car looks, people love the tint and so do I. I added a picture, check it out, it's the Deep Impact Blue Mustang GT Premium, you guessed it, with the dark tint.
Alright, the wrap up. Why wouldn't you go to this place to get your windshield replaced or windows tinted? They offer a great cashback deal or free tinting, they allow you to mix and match, they offer a huge movie theater with comfy seats to keep you cool and comfortable while you wait and they offer free teeth rotting, sugar-coma inducing, delicious goodies while you wait,...as much as you want,.... and they are friendly and do a great job on cars. Worth the wait? Yup. Worth the drive? Yup. Do I recommend them? Yelp!! read more
