Default "Sun Control Man" tinting? anyone heard of 'em?

Searched but had no luck... my parents are going to pay for tint for me for Xmas, and my mom went to a place in Williamsburg out on 2nd street apparently called Sun Control Man, according to the guy they talked to they've been there for a while and apparently he seemed pretty into his work but I was just wondering if anyone has heard anything good/bad about the place.

Also he apparently recommended to my mom that I use SunTek film, which I've never heard of but that shouldn't be a suprise because I've never checked out the different tint brands out there.

I know there are a lot of places farther down the peninsula that have been recommended in the past, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this place. I'm going to have to make an appointment and come back from VT to do it some weekend so if I don't have to drive all the way down the peninsula it'd be nice (my family lives in williamsburg)

or are there any other places in or around williamsburg that you'd recommend?

I had my GT and GTO done at Willie's Mobile Tinting in NN behind Hooters.

I'm not sure if it's the same guy as it was when it was "Reflections", but they did shitty work.

I don't know specifically about his work(guy in Williamsburg), but Willie did mine 15% for $165.

yeah i've heard willie does good work from a few people, but i'd rather just get it done before I head back to VT so I don't have to come back for it, and I was planning on heading back friday and this guy can get my car done by then
