Ideally East London but I don't mind travelling a bit for a decent job. I have searched, these in Kent seem to get good reviews, anyone used them?

Any other suggestions appreciated.

On appearances that looks a really dodgy outfit. Anyone used them?

I've not used them myself, I do know of a few guys I used to work with that have with no problems, just said they're a bit on the pricey side

There is another I drove by earlier ... On Romford Road, directly opposite Little Ilford Lane (by A406), not sure how far away you are from them though

EDITED :

Kream Developments in Rainham (I picked up my Cayenne from these guys), VERY good, and remembered they do Window Tinting.

First impressions/instincts are often correct. Due to naming and shaming rules I've sent you a PM. I think that kind of says it all.

What I've learned, when you do choose a tinting company make sure you see examples of their work first and speak to the tinter.

Also in the end I had a good experience with Pentagon in Reading, pleasant people to deal with. They are a co-op and there is a Pentagon in East London. So perhaps drop by that branch and see their work.

This outfit have a nice website and lots of Youtube videos, never used them and a bit far from you:

Another tip, use a tint shop that only does tinting and not a jack of all trades outfit that also does stereos/alloys/exhausts.
