Omega Werks

Vincent is a man of his word! After doing all the work to my car he inspected and promised to look after the car and all my questions. Ian was super helpful too. Great team of car lovers. My next car is definitely coming here for a full package of clear bra and ceramic pro.

Vincent is great to work with and have been going to him for many years now. He has applied clear bras on my past three cars and recently installed one on my newest car. There have been absolutely no issues on any of the cars and it always done its job protecting against rock chips. I did not have the ceramic pro coating on this car however will have it applied on my Wife’s new Audi next month along with a clear bra and tinting. I will add an update after this and am very confident that it will very positive.
If you are in the Bay Area and care about your car or need quality tinting Omega Werks is well worth visiting. You will really enjoy working with Vincent.

just picked up my spyder from omega werks in pleasanton today. i had custom frontal ppf installed and full body ceramic coating applied. it was a five day process.
my man, vincent tran, did the job. i’ve known vincent and used him for tinting and ppf since 2004. our relationship started with vincent with my first s2000. i’ve had two more since and a bunch of cars in between and since. and vincent’s business has grown as well. he had four new porsche’s — gt3’s, gt4’s and gts’s — in his shop last week, and had a ferrari speciale on the rack for paint correction and ppf went i was at the shop today.
vincent’s motto is he does every car like its his own. he still does all the wrapping on his own, but has guys that help him with prep and disassembly/​reassembly of body parts. he removes bumpers, vents from bumbers, porsche emblem, lights, etc to make sure every edge is tightly folded back and invisible. the car looks AMAZING.
if you’re in the bay area and looking for an ocd straight-​shooter to do your porsche consider vincent and omegawerks.

Vince put the paint protection film on my new car, he is a perfectionist with a true craftsmanship toward his work and he delivered above and beyond my expectation! You can tell that his main concern is delivering the best possible work while still manage to keep the cost competitive and reasonable.
Plus, he is probably one of the nicest guy that you’ll ever meet. Vince run a small shop and he is in high demand, there might be a wait to get you in, but it’s well worth it.

Vincent did an excellent job on my tint. He’s a super busy guy so make sure you get your appointment ahead of time. It was definitely worth the wait and I am super happy with the work he did. I am going back next week to get my car the ceramic coating.

Totally agree with everyone. I have added tinting & clear bras to all my cars from Omega for years, but never had a chance to write reviews. Vince is awesome and his work is perfect! He put so much attention room to details and the results are amazing… even after a few years!

Omega is a PRO on the Clear Bra service. It’s flawlessly done in a high quality fashion. Owner Vincent is an expert and frendly to explain every detail of the technology and service. I would highly recommend it to my friends.
Also consult for the Ceramic Pro as well. It’s a super cool permanent coating that can be applied after your Clear Bra service. Once you have it you never need any public car wash and auto-​detailing service again. I mean «permanent» and that’s it, no hassle for cleaning at all. The technology is really awesome, it’s top of the line and a state of the art. Just Google the technology!

Vince and his shop get consistently excellent referrals on the BMW forums I frequent, and since I am located in the Tri-​Valley area I decided to use him to install clear bra on the 2015 VW Golf R I recently purchased. I had him do the entire front of the car: the bumper, full hood, full fenders, and headlight covers, and had it edge wrapped. You have to look closely to see that there is any film there at all and there are only a couple of places that seams are visible at all (due to some design details on the bumper). The car looks excellent and you can add me to the list of those who will happily refer people to this business.

Man… this place really doesn’t need any more 5 star reviews to convince you to take your car here. But here I am adding one anyway.
Vincent is a a car-​film god. But it isn’t just his immense skill that makes this place completely worth your time and money. It’s the fact that he absolutely loves cars, be it his own or yours. What this means is that he will not let you take home a car that hasn’t been completed to perfection the way he would want his own car to look. I just got my first new car (a mk7 gti) last summer and have been babying it for months, trusting few to work on it, but Vincent is a guy I would trust to do absolutely ANYTHING to my car.
Setting up my appointment with him was a little bit difficult because he is so busy and often booked for the next month. A big part of this is because he essentially works alone, so once you get an appointment with him, definitely make sure you don’t change it.
I came in for a clear bra and since I was on a budget I went for his standard package which includes the application of precut bumper pieces, front half of the fenders, mirrors, headlights, and a third of the hood. Basically this package is precut, and covers all the major parts of your car that would get damaged by flying rocks. However since I didn’t want visible lines on my hood, I paid extra to get a custom cut piece to have the full hood covered. Compared to a couple other places I got quoted at, the standard package itself was much more coverage than every other place I looked into AND was cheaper.
After dropping off my car and confirming what I wanted (I opted to forego the fender pieces to avoid lines on the fender) I left, expecting the get the car back at the end of the work day. Unfortunately, he called at around 3:00 letting me know that it didn’t look like he would be able to finish at the promised time and would either have to work late to get it done that day, or I could pick it up tomorrow. A bit of a bummer, but I understood, because he said his employee/​helper had been unable to show up that day. When the car was picked up the next day, he showed me the work and it was absolutely perfect. Remember when I said that he would not give you a car back if it wasn’t in a condition he would want his own car? Well it seems the precut pieces for the bumper didn’t look good, so Vincent had decided to custom cut and cover my bumper the same way he had done for the hood. This option should have cost me close to double the amount of money, but he only charged me an additional $ 40 for the cost of materials for the headlights.
So much more I would love to say about this shop, but I don’t want to bore you all. In conclusion, I will be coming back here to get my car coated with ceramic pro, his latest feature, which will permanently protect the paint and allow you to never have to detail the car again. I can’t wait to work with Vincent again.

Vincent is the real deal… pays good attention to detail and delivers on time as promised! I’ll completely admit he is a bit more expensive than I expected, but you cannot complain about the results. Especially when it’s a custom cut one piece clear bra application to the front bumper and a one piece for the hood. Definitely worth it all! If you need a clear bra or window tinting, Vincent is your guy.

Add us to the list of very satisfied customers. Vince is meticulous, thorough and explains the process very well. Vince did an amazing job. It isn’t often that you meet someone who takes such pride in doing a good job. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Vince.

Recently did a full frontal clear bra and ¹⁄₃ roof. Also had my windows tinted. I made an appointment ~ 1 week ahead but Vince was already fully booked. He was nice enough to squeeze me in between his appointments. The downside was that I had to leave the car with him longer but I didn’t mind as long as the job was done right. The key is don’t rush him and let him take his time to perform the installation.
I’m happy with his work. He explained the process in details when I brought my car in, and went over his work after it was done.
Can’t wait for him to get trained on Opticoat. Will be back for that application for sure.

Vincent, thank you for another awesome tint job. Coming all the way out from San Francisco through yesterday’s big storm was worth it. Our 2015 Mini Cooper looks great with 40% ceramic tint all around.

Vincent is the most meticulous guy ever and really great work. He fit me in to redo the sloppy work from a top body shop. We have had tinting and clear bra from him with a few cars. We have been working with him for a few years now. He stays on top of the technology and is just perfection with cars.
We are extremely fussy with our cars and he exceeds our expectations. We have left expensive cars with him for longer than a week without incidents. Don’t let high end body shops do this work, they will not be at this level.
It’s 10 stars, the 5 doesn’t do its justice.

Came back here because I had a previous great experience and Vince always treated myself as a genuine customer. He took off someone else’s crappy job and replaced it with his stuff. Didn’t charge extra either. Second great experience I’ve had with him.

I admit, I have been slacking on reviews, but you can’t necessarily force and rush reviews, it’ll just be plain bad. Like how you can’t rush those at Omega Werks to finish faster. You want quality product? Patience is key.
I have debated for about, since I’ve gotten my car whether to tint the front 2 windows or not, and finally I have decided to take the plunge, and I have got to say, even if the film is still settling, it looks absolutely fabulous.
There were several shops in mind, a few in Oakland, and while I was still in SoCal for school a few there too. I realized that the only day I can visit the shops in Oakland is on weekend, and many aren’t opened then, so I hopped on Unilocal and did a search for shops that did window tinting near my workplace and Omega Werks was one of the top choices.
I debated on calling for like half an hour, but I’m glad I took the plunge. I believe it was Vince that answered the phone and I told him what I desired and he quoted me at $ 90 for both the front windows, (yes I know, you don’t have to explain), and I could come in on Monday morning since those two windows are fairly quick.
Come Monday morning, I drove by and dropped off my car. Yes he was bit late, but the process was seamless. I went for 30% since it looked like the factory matching ones were too dark and he said he would contact me after it was done. I waited outside for my co-​worker to pick me up to get to work.
I was honestly panicking since I don’t leave my car with other people for too long, and I debated on calling, but mind over matter, I held myself back and decided to wait while finishing up work at the office. After about 3 o’clock or so he contacts me and he says my car is ready, and I almost jumped out of my seat. I had my co-​worker drop me off and my car with the new tints looked exquisite.
When I got there Vince was on the phone with a client, but after he showed me the car and the problems they had while installing the film. Apparently I need to clean my car better: X, and I felt so bad because he said that on the side, when applying the film the water kept sucking the dirt out of the crease so they had to try again. And again. There was also a green sticker on my window switches to remind myself to roll down the windows for 3 – 5 days while the film cures.
Vince took me in to pay, and I tipped a small amount on top of the amount owed, and he said he couldn’t take it, but after insisting a few times, he took it and I thanked him for the service and the quote for my friend’s E90, when time comes he does want to get it taken care of.
I might have to go back to ask about the warp on the passenger door if it’s still there in a few days.
However Omega Werks deserves all the starts they earn. Honest day’s work earns an honest day’s pay. I have no doubt that this is quality top notch work.
Cheers!

If I could give Omega Werks more stars, I totally would. Great shop, great proprietor.
I found Vincent & Co. something like seven years ago on the internet car forums. Tons of enthusiasts recommended him for his meticulous and high quality of work on car tinting. Had one of my old coupes tinted. He did a perfect job, no skimping whatsoever.
Fast forward to today: Vincent’s reputation for great work still shines brightly here on Unilocal and elsewhere all over the forums. Brought our car in for a clear bra.
Seeing Vincent again and chatting with him went as if no time had passed at all. Very easy guy to communicate with, and of course, he really knows his stuff.
Throughout the process he was very communicative: sending pics via mms and calling me to discuss the options. In the end we didn’t go with the pre-​cut kit option due to some unsightly lines that would have been visible on our somewhat complicated front bumper. We went custom and it couldn’t have turned out better.
5 stars all the way.

I’ve been meaning to write a review for Vince ever since he tinted my BMW 335i a year ago but I couldn’t remember my password to Unilocal (until now).
My BMW looks amazing because of Vince. I couldn’t decide how dark to go and he made some recommendations. No regrets! To this day, I still admire his work. He is so detail oriented that the tint looks perfect.
It takes a couple hours for him to tint, so Vince dropped me off at a nearby plaza with a bookstore, a Starbucks, and some other random chain stores.
I will definitely be going back for my other cars in the future. It’s far for me (I live in SF) but so worth it.

Vincent does a detailed and thorough job and he goes the extra mile to get things done right. I’ve had 2 cars tinted by him. The first was in 2007 and the tint still looks brand new now. In the past month, I took my Tesla Model S for him to tint. I showed up on a Friday morning and he was not yet done with the vehicle from the previous day, so that delayed the work on my car. I would want him to take the appropriate time to do a great job on my car, so I didn’t fault him for running over with the previous car. He drove me to Enterprise (but they were all booked), so he drove me to BART. He spent a Saturday, which is usually not open, to finish up my car and it was a great job (no problems in the 4 – 5 weeks since install). When I went to pay with my credit card, he said he did NOT take those anymore. He just let me drive off with a promise to send a check, which I did the next day.
So everything was great except the NO credit cards issue. He should make that a little bit more explicit when he books the appointments.

Vincent is the man when it comes to window tint! As long as you’re not value shopping, there’s no need to look anywhere else. Not that his prices are bad, but I’m sure there’s cheaper alternatives out there. He’s also not the fastest around but he takes his time and gets it right the first time.
All the guys on the import forums recommended him for a reason. I drove all the way from SF to Livermore to have my first car tinted (35% front 35% rear) years ago based on recommendations from i-​club
Yes, he used to be in Livermore way back when in the pre-​Yelp days!
He tinted my lady’s Nissan ³⁵⁄₂₀ a few years later and did another awesome job. He even pointed out a tiny fleck of fiber from her fuzzy sweater that got stuck in the lower part of the rear window and offered to redo it. I could barely even see it & wouldn’t have noticed it if he hadn’t pointed it out. You won’t find that at many other shops. When her front window was later smashed by some loser in Stockton, he redid the tint at a fair price.
Vincent will be tinting my next Subaru when I need it done. If you’re looking for window tint, or a clear bra, don’t hesitate to give him a call!
