Tint Shop question

Okay i called a local (kinda) tint shop today and asked them some questions. they said it would be 160 dollars plus tax, which i think sounds pretty good. it has a lifetime warranty, which is what i am askin about. The guy said he has been tinting for like 10 years but this shop has only been around for a year. My question is, if they have been open for a year is it too risky to go there since i dont know how long they will be there to fix my tint if i need it. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

i don't know about that one, you really can never tell. hopefully he put so much money in the business that he'll have to stay in the store or he'll go bankrupt.

I dont know what sounds fishy about that... the guy has 10 years of experience... just get the guy to type and sign a real document that says they will honor it.

I'd jump on it. Should be fine.

yea price is right and as long as you can get documentation of the lifetime warranty they will have to honor it. whether in business or refund if they go bankrupt.
