Hey guys,

I just wanted to give a quick review on some tinting that I got done from this small shop that is run by a father and son. I just got my E90 not too long ago and thought I would need to get some tinting done. After much debate, I decided to get 35 on the rear 5 and 50 on the front two.

So this place is relatively unknown but for people who have been there, the reviews for this shop has been great. I thought this would be a good chance to support the small shops who do good work and pay attention to the small details that some of the larger shops neglect. Alright, so from the beginning, I called the shop and the phone was picked up by Paul (the dad) and I scheduled an appointment. Ronny (the son) was my main contact for the job and I had my car tinted to very next day.

I came into the shop via the back (since their main entrance is by the back) and drove into the shop. It took all but 40mins to get all my windows tinted as they had 4 guys (Paul, Ronny and two other workers) doing all the tints on all my windows.

They washed, wiped and dried all my windows before doing any work and had their machine ready to make the proper dimensions for my windows. They guarantee no purple will come out and that if anything should happen, they will warranty and fix it up right away.

After all was done, Ronny gave me an extremely good deal. Let's just say it was much better than what N-Motion offers and without the huge wait in how long it takes them to apply your tint (3-4 hours). He gave me a quick brief on how to take care of my tint and what I should or should not do in the next couple days. He then gave me a warranty card from the manufacturer and everything was completed.

So far, the tint has been GREAT and it looks awesome thus far. I will take pictures as soon as I can but I definitely would recommend this shop to anyone that is thinking of tinting their windows. The shop info is as follows:

PH Solar Window Tinting Ltd.
1045 Kingsway St.
Vancouver, BC
Canada V5V 3C7

Store #: 604-649-5669
Ronny's #: 604-879-8797

If you were to make an appointment or had any questions, going through Ronny would be the best way (IHMO). Tell Ronny that Chris w/ the E90 or from Revscene sent you and he'll most likely give you the best deal.

Post your opinions or your own reviews of this shop if you have one!

*Edit:
Price for rear 5 is around 170 (N-Motion is 200)
Price for rear 3 is around 160 (N-Motion is 180)

Remember, this is a cash only place but they'll give you a warranty card. You'll save on the taxes. This may already be the discounted price so you'll probably want to go into the shop yourself and do the name drop face to face rather than over the phone. I think the more windows you tint, the better price he'll give.
