Window Tint
Adding window tint to your vehicle not only looks fantastic but keeps your car cool in the summer and protects you and your interior from UV damage.
Messenger Motorworks offers high-quality window tint installation using premium films and modern techniques for a look that lasts.
We pride ourselves in being one of the elite tint shops in the area. In addition to constantly working on improving the work environment to reduce contamination, we utilize a CNC plotter to cut our tint patterns. This in combination with our wet-install process ensures a perfect fit every time with no risk to your vehicle.
Messenger Motorworks currently offers two types of films, both leaders in their respective categories. Our standard tint is a metal-free, non-reflective carbon film with a lifetime warranty; this is a very high-quality film that is color-stable and offers good heat rejection. Our premium film is a nanoceramic material that leads the industry in color, heat rejection and infrared ray rejection.
