My husband gets lots of his work trucks tinted here. So I knew I was walking into a reputable place. I brought my new 2-dr 428I BMW for basic tint all the way around. These guys not only did a fabulous job, but they left the inside of my car as I left it, clean! WIth other tint companies in my past experiences, I found leftover tint, dirt and water marks from all the mess. Prices are average and installation time is quick and efficient. VIP does an exceptional job! Thank you. read more

I was very happy with the work and the service I received. I messaged them on Yelp and received a response in approximately an hour. I set up my appointment during lunch hours and by time I got off work my car was done. I went in unsure of what I wanted other than "dark" and JD showed me several options. I love the choice I went with. It's exactly what I was looking for plus I have a lifetime warranty. My car feels new to me again. Thank you for great work! I have already referred someone to the Glendora location. read more

Took my car to get some tinting on the front windows. Came in around 12, made an appointment at 2 and was in and out of the shop within 15-20 min at most. JD was super friendly and informative. Definitely don't know much about cars so JD took the time to simplify and explain everything to me detail by detail. Will definitely be coming back soon to do the tint on my windshield! Great customer service! read more

Got my husband's car windows tinted here as it didn't come with any tint off the lot. After doing some research, i found VIP auto customs. These guys were very professional and got the car done that day. Even though they were busy, they stayed open past their business hours and got the car looking great! They have excellent quality paper, and guaranteed that it will never peel or bubble! read more

It started with a phone call. I was calling around to get some quotes to get my windows tinted. I am a sales consultant and do phone sales. I was really impressed with Robert. He was nice and very informative. I told him he was the first shop that popped up on Yelp so I wanted to call around to check other guys pricing. He was very understanding and didn't push me. I called around and got cheaper quotes from other places. I like to ask questions. The other guys were rushed and gave me very little info, just prices. They were rude and quick to try to get me into their place. Even tho I was quoted cheaper at 4 other places, I couldn't forget how nice Robert was. I called back to schedule an appointment. I got JD. He also was very nice and informative and addressed my questions . He gave me a good deal. He went the extra mile and arranged for me to drop off my car and he would take me to work (right down the street). They also picked me up in my car and I gave them a ride back to the shop. They do more than tints and I will definitely be back for their quality work, quality products and top notch customer service. You get what you pay for. Tints are definitely not something to go cheap on. Plus their warranty is great! If I had 1 bad thing to say would be, I had a car wash right before taking it in. I found a few drips and drops of maybe liquid adhesive on the body and on the inside of my car door panels. Nothing horrible, they cleaned right up. Thank You for the VIP Service! I will be back for more and have already referred my co-workers! read more

I had an alarm issue with my Nissan Altima. I called him up to troubleshoot and he suggested that I bring it in. We quickly went over the issue and he told me the means of fixing it, whether I wanted to do it myself or have him do it. Within minutes I solved my own issue and he didn't charge me a cent for the help. He's extremely honest and thoughtful, and I'll aim to do future business with him. read more

I've been a long time customer of another shop in temple city, they've always treated me good but their pricing has been a little high lately. Someone recommended VIP and I came by a little hesitant, JD helped me out and he was not only knowledgeable, helpful but also patient while I made my decision. The crew pulled my ride in and had it done before I could decide who to call to pick me up, my car came back clean and the tint looked great. I really wanted to hate this place because of my loyalty but JD and the guys did an fantastic job and my car looks amazing. I wouldn't hesitate to send anyone to these guys, don't wait and call JD! Tell him I sent you and it'll be an awkward moment when he doesn't even realize who I am haha read more

Great service! Found them because of Groupon! The Groupon did not include front driver and passenger window but I got a great deal to include front windows! I made it early for my appointment and was serviced quickly and out within an hour. I was hoping they took longer because they had a big flat screen with Netflix, Django was just getting good! I would highly recommend them! read more

VIP Auto Customs - Happy with my tint work! - Auto Customization Near Me - Pasadena, California

I have paased by VIP many times and never had the need for their skills and services. Through Yelp, I dIscovered Robert and JD at VIP. They were tremendously helpful and friendly, and their prices were quite reasonable with a great warranty. I took my new car there, and they did such a good job, we decided to upgrade my wife's alarm and tinting as well. Thank you, Robert and JD PS Nice bike, JD. read more

Back in early March before the hot weather moved in (and the stay at home order) I decided to re-tint my car. I bought my car used about 8 years ago - and it came with window tint that was showing its age. I had no experience or knowledge of how car tinting service's and pricing - so I did some online research and got quotes from a few different shops via Yelp app. Robert Jr. at VIP Auto responded to my questions quickly, provided lots of great info, answered my many questions, and scheduled me for an initial consultation within a few days. When I went to the shop, the owner Robert Sr. explained the solutions and pricing - again answering my many many questions (I asked a lot). I decided to go ahead and do the tinting with VIP the next day - they got me on the schedule as the first appointment of the day on a Saturday. It took just a few hours - and my car was ready for pick-up with its new tinting by mid-day. As a first-time tinting customer, I'm very happy with the service and results I got. Especially now we're into summer, I definitely notice it feels cooler in my car interior. My steering wheel used to get really hot and my arms would feel like they were burning up in the sun. Now the new tinting cuts down on heat/UV and gives my car a more updated look. I recommend VIP Auto - what I especially appreciated was the attentiveness to my many questions and willingness to explain things to me thoroughly with no sales pressure. Another thing I noticed while I was in the office, all the customers that came in were greeted and treated with courtesy. And they all seemed happy to be there. read more

Very personable staff, a super nice people. I waited for my window tint and they provided WiFi, TV, comfortable sofa and good conversation. I got Crystalline 3M clear, and after a day sitting in a hot parking lot, my car really is much cooler now than before. (I mean the temperature.) And looking out of my windows is like looking out of good sunglasses. I won't take a star off for the bathroom bc it's an auto shop, so I wasn't expecting a hotel style experience there, but it needs a dusting. (The hotel bathroom experience is at Bistange Brothers, an auto body shop, btw.) read more

Got my 2013 Tacoma tinted here about 6 months ago. Used the coupon on yelp and got a discount. They are a little pricier than G5 in Alhambra even with the discount but the job quality is definitely worth it. Good customer service! they will definitely take care of you. (especially if you're a girl)! Will come back here again read more

After checking out Yelp reviews and watching the video for VIP Auto Customs, I decided to check out this place despite having been given recommendations for other tinting services. I am extremely happy with my decision to try somewhere new. Jae-D was able to get me a same day appointment and see me immediately. I was immediately greeted by the team at JIP and Jae-D explored the different options for me. He ensured that I would be making an informed decision that took my budget and needs into account. I chose the 3M color stable at 20% all around. They have a small lounge area with cool air, refreshments, television and a view of the crew working on my car. The entire process flew by, I felt like I had just finished watching one news telecast and they were already done with my car. I drove in at 4:00pm and headed out by 5:15pm.. AMAZING! Everybody there was extremely friendly. The owner made sure I felt comfortable by introducing himself to me and asking me if I wanted any refreshments. Like I said, Jae-D made sure I was well informed before making a decision and was cool throughout the entire process. They offer a superior product and great service... considering those two, I believe I got a good deal! Best of all, my car looks great. Thank you Yelp, Yelp reviewers, and everybody at VIP Auto Customs! This was a seamless and superb experience. read more

A well deserved 5 stars. I asked around and this shop was recommended so i read their yelp reviews which were pretty consistently good. I had a pretty big job. I bought an alarm, electric lock actuators and an aftermarket power window kit on line and needed it all installed in my 1985 Toyota RV. Plus i wanted tints. The manager JD kept me informed of the progress and showed me where to find bottled water for me and my dog while we waited. I had read online how difficult the windows are so i was prepared to wait a while and brought a book to read. Rene and Oscar did a really beautiful job installing everything. Not easy on an old truck! The windows glide silently, the tints are perfect, the alarm and locks work perfectly and give me a sense of security. When they were testing everything at the end of the install they found my reverse lights weren't working. I have a rear camera and aftermarket system installed someplace else and they had done it wrong! These guys found the problem and fixed that too. Overall, the BEST experience I've ever had with anything automotive or RV related. Everyone was professional, kind and knowledgable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! I heart VIP AUTO CUSTOMS! read more

This business is very professional. The manager takes special care to discuss all tint options so that customers are comfortable with their decisions. I worked with J.D., and he was patient in answering all of my questions. My tint looks great and I am super pleased with it! -L. Lujan read more

CAN I GIVE THESE GUYS 6 STARS!! V I P did such a great job on my car last year, I brought both of my cars to be detailed this time. Rob, the owner, is a great guy. He's been at the same location for over 19 years. He and his crew were professional, courteous, and knowledgeable about the products and services they offered. They did an A+ job on detailing both of my cars. I was very impressed. Want your car to be taken care of? Definitely bring it over to V I P Auto Customs. read more

The guys here are really chill, I brought my dashboard piece in to see if they could replace it. He showed me what to do , had me help out which was really cool. Definitely come here read more

Went here to first get my front windows tinted on my Q5 Audi....they did a great job that I brought back my Infiniti and had them tint all the windows, change the radio and add a back up camera! Very professional and clean! Thanks JD read more

I just bought a 2012 black Honda 2-door Civic and was told by the salesman to go to California Tint to get my windows tinted, I called and then was told that I could come in after I hang up and there would not be too long of a wait. There were only 2 cars ahead of me - if I could get there in about 1/2 an hour. I jumped in the car and headed over and was then told that I had 10 cars ahead of me and that they couldn't guarantee that I would be done until at least 3pm (mind you it was only 9:30am). I was disappointed and decided to go to the place that I had gotten my CRX and CRV tinted before. Couldn't remember the name of the place however it was off Altadena just south of the 210 freeway. I was pleased with the way they installed the tinting with my other cars - I decided to hit them up again. I arrived and met Will, who explained very thoroughly the differences with the 3M Scotchtint products and color. I told him that I wanted as dark as I could get without it being illegal. He suggested dark for the back half and medium for the door windows. I was able to use the coupon that was advertised here on the Yelp page and he did tell me that it would take 2 hours to do the tinting. Thank goodness for iPhones and work. There was free wi-fi in the place and plugs to plug in my laptop so that I could do some work. Exactly 2 hours later they were done and I was very pleased with the outcome. My car was taken to another level with the tinted windows! I only had 1 hiccup in the whole event and that was after the tinting was done, my battery needed to be recharged; not sure what happened there. They charged the battery however the settings for the brakes and power steering were not reset. The screen asked to have these settings checked and the owner and the guy that did the tinting wasn't quite sure why this was happening. The owner Roger (I think that was his name), drove the car around the block and when he returned he stated that the settings were fixed and that I shouldn't have a problem. Cool! He did state that if I had any issues that I could come back to them and see if they could fix it...I didn't need to...everything is in perfect order. The windows look great, the car looks awesome and I'm happy! read more

Robert, and the guys over at V.I.P. Center did an awesome job on my CUSTOM installation of a Clear Bra on my 1986 Civic. I came in, and he got right to work on it. I've been coming to V.I.P. for years, for all of my custom car needs, and the guys over there never let me down. Thx Robert! Barry read more

I think this is my first ever Yelp review. This place was grrrrrreeeaat! I got the FX 3M film for my wife's 2010 Ford Fusion for all the back windows in a classy "limo" tint for her birthday and we love it! Customer service was outstanding, the shop was friendly and inviting, complete with comfortable leather couch to wait on. We even left to take a coffee break while it was getting done (was told it would take approx. 1.5 hours) and by the time we came back about an hour later the car was ready!!! I will definitely come back for my car once I'm ready to tint it as well! Thanks team! read more

VIP gave me VIP treatment while I got my tint done. They offered me Netflix to feed my addiction while I wait & eat breakfast on their comfy couch & TV trays. Just like home! Plus they offered me a car wash for additional cost so my new tint can pop!!! Love the new windows! read more

Both Robert Sr and Robert Jr were awesome. With the summer on its way and the heat in LA, it was time for tinted windows. I own a Nissan Altima Coupe which had the three rear windows tinted however it was not to my liking. After doing a search on Yelp I gave VIP Auto Customs a call and i'm glad I did. I showed up and spoke with Robert Jr. I explained to him what I needed and they were able to meet my expectations. The XPEL film they use is definitely of high quality and the heat rejection is great. Best of all their quality of work in unmatched. You can tell they take pride in their work. Give these guys a call. They also offer great quality paint protection. Thanks Robert Sr and Robert Jr. read more

This Wednesday I took my car to get my windows tinted with the guys at VIP. First off this is the third car i take to them, and I always leave so happy with the way my car looks when they finish. They said it would take 1 hour and a half but they were done in less than an hour which I was very pleased with. I recommend everyone to come to these guy not only do they do a great job but they are fast and FRIENDLY! good customer service is always a huge plus ! read more

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. The guys at VIP Auto Customs are awesome. I needed a sub/amp installed today and they were able to do it within 15 minutes of me calling them. The installation was very clean and done VERY quickly. The pricing was very reasonable. Also, I had a tail light out and the guys had a spare one around and replaced it for me. Great customer service. I would definitely come to this place again, and probably will in the near future to get my windows tinted. read more

Reaaaallllllly good service! Was able to help me with something that normally would have costed 90 bucks at an Audi dealership! Highly recommend! read more

Called in at 11AM and managed to get an appointment the same day at 3PM. Came for a basic tint, but upgraded to a better film. Didn't feel pressured or upsold at all. The waiting area was a little cluttered and dirty, but that's completely unrelated to the quality of work provided. Came in at 3PM, left at 4PM with dark carbon tints on 5 windows. Looks great, fast service, free WiFi, comfy couch, what else can you ask for? read more

JT, thanks man. I appreciate your most wonderful customer service. I enjoyed feeling welcomed @ your establishment. I especially appreciated the way you backed your services 100%. While finding a very very minor flaw in my front tint that was off by just a hairline, I couldn't believe that you were willing to redo the entire tint if I desired. To the naked eye I must say, your work was exceptional. Nevertheless I write my review after having serviced my 7-Series, ML350, & my daughters Sentra! See you next time! read more

My wife and I just bought an older jeep Cherokee that definitely needed some tinting. We decided to come to VIP and was greeted by JD who have us options, but also cared about what we wanted and could afford. Once we decided he took our jeep right in and when completed we were very happy and more than satisfied! Our jeep looks so much better, and the follow up in the process by JD made the wait fky by! great job you guys and thanks!! Daniel and Pamela G. read more

They did a great job tinting my Subaru! I called and they were able to make an appointment for me the following day. it was quick and they did an excellent job. I researched pricing for other businesses in the area and they were competitive, but perhaps a tad more expensive. I was ok with this because I knew I was getting the best quality tint product and service. They also did a great job of educating me on the different types of tinting, as well as the levels of darkness (i.e. limo, dark, medium, etc.) and how they correspond to our California state laws. Overall, I had a good experience here and I'm happy with the job. I would definitely recommend VIP. read more

Went in this morning no appointment and dropped off my car had it done by 2 pm. Dropped off at 11 am before work. Did an awesome job on the tint!

I give this place an A+. Found a groupon for tints, they said it was for the back windows only and said I could upgrade for an additional price. We worked it out so I do my front windows also. JD is a great manager and Robert offers wonderful customer service. They impressed me with their service, with their lounge/waiting room, and they're work. They did a clean job and in the time frame I informed them I needed it done. Unless something happens with my tints, I would, and will, recommend them to others. Very happy with my experience. read more

VIP Auto Customs is by far one of the best place to go to. I've been going to VIP for over ten years and I'm always satisfied on all my cars. Customer Service is awesome by the tint guys Oscar and Rene, and the best of the best by JD! JD always takes good care of me and will give you the best quality work. I'm very picky with my tint, and JD and his crew always do the best work. Also, lifetime warranty is key to me and quality work. Thank you VIP for everything you do and the quality work! read more

Very helpful, and informative staff. The manager Will did an excellent job at explaining the differences between the films they had available for tint.
