Argued with tinter who left strips untinted near mirrior area

Guys need help here.
Yesterday i had my car tinted. Everything looks good except two front windows, he cut the tint right where the inner mirror plastic cover ends up but as you know there is still some glass area if you look more deeply(from outside you barely can see it) I told him about that and he said that it's "accepteble".
Please guys help me i dont know how it's suppose to be in proper way.
Since i paid 207 bucks for tint i'm not really pleased with it. Any issues "accepteble" for that price??? I need advice ASAP.

what kind of advice do you need??? you paid for a service and if you don't like it than you take it back and you get it fixed. simple as that.

if your window is closed and you can see any part of the window not tinted the slightest bit, they did a $hitty job so go back and get it done properly

^just felt like being ignorant....If you paid 210 and you werent satisified its only right for you to go back to the tinting place to get your problem corrected...Last time I checked, all tinting businesses offer a warranty on tints? am i not correct?

Yeah I'm not sure what kinda deal you can get with a warranty for $100...it cost me $100 for the job then extra for a lifetime warranty. And prices are different everywhere. You can't tell him he's idiot if you dont even know the details.....gotta agree with 86.

I paid $235 with the windsheild stripe and that was about 3 1/2 years ago and its still perfect. My buddy went a few weeks later to a different place and paid $200 flat with the stripe.

I went with my friend to tint his car, $200 for 20% all around. My friend wasnt happy with the rear window had them re-do it, wasnt happy with the front right saying there was too much of a gap, and they re-did it AGAIN.

Well worth $200
