Default Window tinting?

Looking for a reputable window tinting shop in NoVA, preferably in Arlington or Alexandria.

Any recommendations?

I used TNT Tint when I got my m3 years ago. At the time they were operating out of Martin Motorsports in Alexandria. Not sure if they are still there or not.

Yes. get it dark enough so that people on the outside cannot see in. this makes you mysterious and even badass and gives you a psychological advantage over others. men will fear you. women will desire you.

I've been doing some survey research the last couple of years while commuting 45 miles each way, every day. I've determined that the darker the window tint, the more likely you'll be driving like a dumbass. So please be careful.

Lol this is for the wagon. It gets pretty warm inside with all those panes of glass, I'm hoping some tint will help keep the heat out.
