As the Monterey Bay's only authorized LLumar SelectPro Dealer, we exclusively offer select lines of LLumar FormulaOne automotive window tints. Many inferior films use low quality materials or have color applied only to the surface, making them less durable and prone to fading. FormulaOne films start with a micro-thin sheet of deep-dyed polyethylene and UV blockers.

I recently made an Appointment 10/21 to tint my windows for my vehicle. They asked me if I wanted to come by to check their films and Of course the place offers the best tinting films Llumbar went to check them and was greeted by this gentlemen Casey friendly guy, he went into full detail of the process and helps you with your choices of films offered. Took my car in and casey did a super magnificent job to my car and the tint 10/10 worth every penny! I highly recommend for people who want their tint to be worth it.

AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE. Casey is a consummate professional. It's difficult to find people in Santa Cruz who will take care of you when it comes to customer service, but TGC is one you can count on. They do all kinds of vehicles, and their work is very tight, crisp, and clean. I will always come here for whatever needs I have as long as this team is working. Thanks for an awesome experience!

There was a confusion at first but Casey straightened and corrected it. He is a manager/installer for automotive dept and is very responsible nice person. He helped me to choose the right films for my car, answered all my questions, and installed UV protection/heat prevention films nicely. If you have any technical questions, I recommend you to ask Casey.

Went in to get my Honda Fit tinted a couple of weeks ago. Casey was the technician that worked on my car and he did an amazing job and was really helpful and knowledgeable on the selection of tints they carried. Really nice guy, even when I asked about a custom sized film for the roof of my car to protect it from my line of work, he said no problem and gave me a great deal on it. My commute there was 90 miles there and back and it was well worth it. Highly recommend them & am coming back if I ever need another car done.

I had explained to the estmator technician what I was wanting to achieve shade and privacy. He gave me 3 examples which i chose one of which is the one he would have recomended. The installer arrived on time and was very professional explained what he was to do and the results. The result was better than I could have expected. The street light outside my window was very much dimed to the point that it did not hinder me getting to sleep. (Highly recommend for day sleepers) and in the morning it was a soft experience when looking out I could have gone back to sleep.
The UV benefit is great and the thermal reduction in room temp was amazing. And the lifetime warranty was the topping on the cake. Thank you for the great and professional service I will recommend to my friends.

The folks at TGC have showed me the light, then beautifully and expertly subdued it with the best tinting film available on the market. Joe held my reluctant hand through the experience and offered his much needed expertise which yielded an end result that is nothing short of inspirational. The stunning overall appearance, cooler interior tempatures and added privacy will add value to my vehicle and keep those pesky UV rays from prematurely fading the upholstery.
The installer (I apologize I did not get their name) obviously has a very artistic, skilled and veterin hand to achieve such perfection and tight tolerances. I've had quite a few vehicles tinted over the years at a variety of derelict/questionable shops using subpar films that bubbled, wrinkled, changed color and had to be replaced which lead me to my wariness about going through another disappointing experience.
I couldn't have been more pleasantly wrong and with TGC's transferable warranty, I couldn't be more at ease. Stellar performance! Great customer support and experience. Top marks! You have gained a customer for life! Disclaimer: I did not receive any compensation, discount or products for my review. I am a real, genuine, full price paying, customer who couldn't have been happier or more satisfied with the service and professionalism I received.
