Theres a car audio shop on South Main. If your comming from Broadway plaza its on the right after you cross Ygnacio Valley and the Shell station. These dudes are legit and they also do tint.

Yeah, you can just pull up to Pedro and have him and his buddies hook you up on the spot [:D]

if you are willing to travel to pleasanton, call up Omega Tintwerks and talk to Huy. Let him know steve with the audi refered you, he'll give you a good price. (925) 227-1322 great work and lifetime warranty, also a good friend. [;)]

They are not the closest to you but in Livermore is the staple for the area. Rocky Mountain Window Tint. They use the Formula One window tint by 3M which is the best stuff out there.

I had my other s4 tinted by rocky mountain window tint, and those guys are the real deal. Can't say enough about how professional and curteous those guys are. Unfortunately, the guys at Walnut Creek Customs did a crappy job. Every window has bubbles and streaks, fuzz and dust, etc... i haven't gone back to have them re-do it, but i'm completely disappointed. The shop is "high-end", and i expected to pay a little bit more than usual, but i thought i would also be treated and given service better than usual...kind of a bummer. Anyhow, i'll post up when i go back to these dudes and have them re-tint the windows.
Mo- i wanna say that this place is under new ownership, so you probably went in before the new guys came in.

Holy crap [eek] sorry bro. I thought their work would be top notch based on their car audio installs I have seen. I would go back there and have them do a complete 360 turn around or even do a removal and refund. I feel so bad now [:(] for even mentioning that place.

don't trip mo...i thought the same thing. there were a few 911 turbos in there, and an aston martin so i thought it was going to be cool. Honestly, i think it's probably just a flukey thing, and they probably should've made the extra effort to do a good job, but the way that i look at it is that i'm gonna have them remove all of the tint, and go darker (i did 35 up front, 20 everywhere else...i'm gonna go 20 up front and whatever the next shade down everywhere else). if they don't get it right on the 2nd time, i'll just ask for my money back. again, don't sweat it mo, it's not your fault. i just want to make sure that anybody else in the area makes sure they know what's up...i'll post up after i get them to fix mine.
