Many customers reported significant delays in receiving their orders, with some waiting months or even close to a year without getting their products. People also expressed dissatisfaction with the product quality, describing it as damaged, cheap, or not matching the advertised description. Attempts to get refunds or cancel orders were largely unsuccessful, as the company often stopped responding to emails and other communications.

Ordered them late September 2024 and…no show

Ordered them late September 2024 and they still haven't arrived. Don't waste your money on this company. After emailing in early november, they said they are still working on the order. It's now December and no sign of them.

Deceiving marketing & Possible Scamming

First of all, the Instagram videos which are what really sell this product are very deceiving. They make the tint pieces look like they just cling to the window via static or some other method. What they don’t show is that you have to put strips of gummy adhesive at the top of each window in order to get the piece to stick. This took well over an hour to install.
I ordered a full package set of window tints, and I was expecting to receive a front windshield tint piece with it, since on their website it showed fully blacked out cars with all windows tinted. This is very deceiving. I received my order with no front windshield piece, and when I sent an email to the company’s customer support saying I never received the front windshield piece, they wrote back saying that there is no front windshield tint included in the package. There is also no way apparently to buy a single front windshield tint piece. I was very disappointed, as the idea of a removable front windshield tint piece was literally my main reason for even buying the package and any tints from this company to begin with.
Knowing all of this now, I would have saved my money and spent it on having traditional tint placed on my car windows. This product isn’t worth it.
Finally, today, weeks after I had already paid for and received my order, I got an email saying thanks for a new order, and my bank account had a charge from the company for $29.99. I never made a new order with this company, nor will I ever, so this is a huge red flag for me. I’m not sure if this company is doing some scamming or what is going on, but I reached out to their customer service immediately via email and will be disputing the new charge with my bank.
I don’t recommend this company’s product, and I would use caution with monitoring for any mysterious and random charges if you do make a purchase from them.

SCAM COMPANY!! STAY AWAY!!

Tint is crap quality, it catches at the bottom when rolling up the window which then permanently creases the tint. It bows out and wont stay flush. In sunlight it has a cloudy haze and terrible optics. instructions provided are vauge. I requested a refund as stated in their ad that if you are not satisfied just request within 30 days. I was told they would only send an exchange. Then they charged my account a random $30 which I disputed as fraud. Stay far away from this scam company. You have been warned.

Scam company

Scam company. I received the tints but they don't fit. No reply after numerous attempts to contact them. Then, they try to charge me $30 for nothing. I'm contacting CC company for a fraud complaint.

Hot Garbage.

I was really excited about trying out this product for my 2017 mustang. I bought the full window package and I waited about 3 weeks for it to finally arrive. When it did, there was little to no instructions on how to install it. The vinyl was easily scratched just by using my fingernail with wedge it in between the rubber grommet and the window itself. It didn't sit flush with the window and bubbled out. The rear windshield was the worst as it collapsed in on itself just by the sheer weight of the plastic. The tiny strip of double sided adhesive wasn't enough for it to hold it in place. The only thing that actually held was the rear quarter windows. Absolutely would never recommend this product. Save your money and get a real window tint by a professional. This is hot garbage and ultimately ended up there.

Terrible company

Terrible company. It’s a scam. I ordered tints to try out because there is a 30 day “risk free” money back guarantee policy for returns. The product arrived damaged with scratches and creases. I asked for a refund and they said they can only do a replacement. Which is not what the risk free policy said. Then they said they changed the policy a few days ago when I placed the order a month ago. Then they tried to charge my $30 for the $30 day warranty without telling me anything. I’m disputing everything. Do not trust this company. It’s a big scam.

Do not fall for this treachery, the devil is in them....

The absolute worst experience that I have ever had with any company. They say the fit will not be a problem and they will fix it if anything is wrong, when something is wrong and they get confronted they will not reply to emails. Mind you the only way to contact these people is by email, no other way. Why is this being allowed to happen? This company is basically stealing from everyone who orders from them and in return they get a shitty ass product that doesn't fit and is as cloudy as all get out. Better business bureau needs to shut them down and give us our money back. So, I ordered two different vehicles on one order, guess thats too much for them to handle because I only received one vehicle that didn't fit and nothing else on the other one. I was surely charged for it though, Im gonna dispute the charge with my bank maybe I can get some money back that way.

Very stylish

Works wonders when you need to travel with children. I think they fit for most models unless you drive a sports car with odd window shape you should be fine.

Fraud Business

Fraud Business. Don't use! Order number 15632 was ordered on October 12, 2024. I have reached out with email and through your Instagram account as requested on your posts on social media. I haven’t received my order or any communications. I have requested that they fully refund my account immediately. No answer. No Order received.

Ordered tint to "try out risk free" as website claimed, but got scammed

Ordered tint. Got it but it did not fit. After they offered an exchange but I just want my money back. I only bought because the website claimed "NOT BLOWN AWAY? TRY INSTATINT RISK FREE, buy without any risk and worry about your money."

I am beyond unsatisfied. This company's customer service lies and is a scam. If you can reply to me and give me back my money I will write a positive review. But please do not lie to customers.

Quite possibly the most terrible service I've had

Useless. When ordered I was told 2/3 weeks. Fast forward a little over 5 weeks and nothing. I've sent countless messages via Instagram and all I get back is the typical 'We aim to resolve this as quick as we can' BS. They've now just stopped replying to me all together now.

Please, save yourself the hassle and just get your windows tinted the normal way. Company is useless and just want your money.

The product does not work on the new…

The product does not work on the new Bronco years 2021 and on, as the door is frameless, the tint material is too short for the window and does not go into the door enough to pass the weatherstrip. When the window is wound down the tint material binds on itself and kinks, destroying the product.
