haven't had it done yet but i am going to have it done at ziebart. I have had alot of friends get their cars done at ziebart on manhiem road near Franklyn park. they all said the service was good. one had an issue with the tint not sticking but it was determined that the previous owner had put rainex antifog on the window and that was causing the issue. I am planing on haveing them do my window tint on my fit with 35% on all windows. I hope this gives you some direction and let me know what choice you make and how it worked for you

Easiest way to find a good shop: ask if they use computer cut tint. Don't let somebody cut the tint with a razor blade on your window. This ain't the 90s.

Might be $20-50 pricier but UMBRA does a great job and do use computer cut tints with warranty (lifetime on film/tint) Chicago Window Tinting | Umbra Window Tinting, Clear bra & vinyl graphics

bumping this thread since I just had Umbra tint my fit. Cost for full coverage + windshield strip using FormulaOne Pinnacle (ceramic) tint was $375. The install looks great, no bubbles, peeling, streaks, scratches, or rolling. I was given full warranty paperwork along with my receipt. Not to mention, I was going to grab a cab to Woodfield mall while I waited, but he insisted I take his car!

Full recommendation for Umbra. Excellent install quality, professional, and a real nice guy.
