Gulf Coast Auto's work on our 2022 Taycan Turbo was a 10/10, A++++++. We asked for ceramic coating, tint, wheels and calipers painted. The car turned out even better than we imagined. John Gray, the owner, was friendly and was always available to speak if we had any questions or wanted updates. John's dedication to best quality work and client satisfaction is truly remarkable. If you are looking to get the most detailed and highest quality work done on your vehicle, stop searching now and give John a call. You WILL NOT be disappointed!!!

XPEL PPF

We have used John for a multitude of vehicle protection services from window tinting, paint correction, and paint protection films. He and his technicians are crafts at their work and will do their best to exceed your expectations.

Model 3 with XPEL Prime XR

Just had my Model 3 tinted with XPEL Prime XR at Gulf Coast and they did a great job. Amazing work around the windows, they shave the tint around the glass since the window is frameless there is no line making the tint look factory. Also they tint the large back window in one piece which is more difficult but looks perfect. Some shops only tint to the defroster line which is not a good look. Since the shop is about an hour from my house I had to hang out but they took care of my car right away. Comfortable waiting room with drinks, snacks and a nice couch to relax on if you are stuck like me. Looking forward to doing business with them again.

I drove over 700miles round trip to have John and his guys do my tint and paint protection film. I think the trip was worth it. Fantastic work with an attention to detail that I have to applaud. You can tell when people enjoy the work they do. These guys (and gal) have a good time and their work shows it. If you're curious about Feynlab products I can say one thing. The product applied to my windshield made bug guts just brush right off with the swipe of a finger. It's mind boggling stuff. Fantastic shop with very skilled craftsmen.

Edge of film at the hood and front fender.  So precise!

My new car was the unfortunate recipient of a shoddy PPF and tint job from the dealership. Many places with dust caught under the film, and the panel edges were crooked and left too much paint exposed. The tint had many large bubbles that would likely never completely go away. I was kinda stuck though, because I had purchased this car out of town, had flown in to take delivery and drive it back to Houston, so I wasn't too keen on driving all the way back just to have them attempt to fix it and mess it up again. John to the rescue! He called the installer at the dealership and sent photos of the many defects, and they agreed to pay him for re-doing it all. What a night and day difference. Not a single bubble in sight, no specks, and alignment was impeccable. Ditto regarding the tint. I also got a ceramic coating, and it is so smooth. For comparison, I've had PPF done by a couple other places in town, and Gulf Coast Auto Shield is hands down the best. Plus, their prices are VERY reasonable, much better than what I had paid the dealer! Most PPF places showcase their work with photos of the entire car or most of it, which is an inadequate demonstration of job quality. At the dealer, my car looked great from far away too. I've included a couple of up close photos to show how precision of the film alignment. It's probably difficult to see the film edges in the photos, even in person it's difficult! The best way to assess the quality is to visit the shop and see for yourself in person, truly amazing. John is the owner, he answers the phone himself, and takes pride in his shop and his work. He is very dedicated, staying after hours and going the extra mile. From advocating on my behalf to the dealer, to the flawless job on my car, to the prompt communication, working after hours to get my car back on time (even though I said "no rush"), this shop is just incredible. I can't recommend them highly enough. Fantastic place!!

See all

The owner (John) was very friendly and gave me all the options without pressuring me into a particular product.

After moving to Houston, I quickly realized that finding people who truly take pride in their work…read morecan be a challenge. Perhaps it's a generational shift, but after dealing with various contractors, lawn services, restaurants and repair shops, many businesses do the absolute minimum, just enough not get fired. However, Manny at NTouch Autotint & Accent is a breath of fresh air. He is a true professional who delivers high-quality work in a timely manner. While his excellent rating drew me in, but what really impressed me was how gracefully he handled the only two low reviews he's received which told me everything I needed to know about his character. My wife and I are thrilled with the work he performed on her vehicle. If you want someone you can trust with your car, someone who actually cares about the quality of their work, Manny is the person to call. Thank you, Manny--please keep up the exceptional work. You've earned a customer for life.

I called and made an appointment. He said he only takes cash or zelle which also did not bother me…read more I showed up five minutes before the time and walked to the door. I pulled on it and it was locked. I looked to see an "open" sign or light or anything and pulled again. I started to walk back to my car and the door opens and he looks at me and says "why did you pull on my door like that?". I said "I have an appointment". He said "you did not have to pull on my door like that". No "good morning" no "thank you for coming to get work done" just straight confrontation. I just flashed a peace sign and said "have a good day man". I own my own company and I can tell you how I treat my customers matters. I dont know if he did not want to do the work or what but I am just left scratching my head. maybe I am an isolated incident but just so you know.
