Best place to get window tinted in SF Bay Area??

For those of you live in Bay Area, especially around Silicon Valley, where would you recommend to have my C300 tinted??
Also, for the trunk lip spoiler, what body shop would you guys recommend??
I am considering either paying $300+shipping from mymecedes.com and install myself or order the unpainted CF one from ebay for about $100 and have local body shop paint & install..

I've had 4 cars through there and these guys are absolutely amazing. Very knowledgeable, reliable, and make this process painless. They also do replacement windshields and rear windows - they received calls from other tint shops (that messed up tints) asking for replacement rear windows and these guys came through for even them. Very confident in there work, and would go again anytime.

Also heard a lot of good words about Rocky Mountain Wint Tint @ Antioch (
www.rockymountainwindowtint.com). They are one of the few that are pretty good with tinting dotted matrix edges.

I just need to find time to setup an appointment with them.

I agree with AZN, Sonic MS is the best place to paint, install, and ordering stuff.

BTW, what do you guys think of 35% front side/25% rear/side tint?
