AFS is absolutely amazing! I was really unsure of who to trust when it came to getting ppf and ceramic coating done on my new Nissan Z. The entire team at AFS made me feel so welcomed and comfortable through the entire process. The team members who work at the desk are super friendly and explained the process in detail. They showed us their entire facility which is so beautiful, clean and organized. I love that they take videos of their work and are willing to provide the video to the customer. AFS is definitely a trust worthy facility for your car needs! I really appreciate how quickly they were able to complete the process. It only took a few days and they did a beautiful job. Thank you to the entire team, you are all awesome!The icing on the cake was the fact that the videographer used the Tokyo Drift song from Fast and Furious as the music in the video of the work being done on my car. It happens to be my favorite Fast and Furious movie! Thanks again. 😁

Definitely recommend this place for all of your car pampering services. They did a matte black wrap on my car and my rims. I give it a 10/10. The detailing came out perfect and I will for sure bring my other vehicles here in the near future! The customer service is by far the best I’ve dealt with. Ask for Tammy!

This business gave me FIVE STAR SERVICE from the very first web inquiry!!! Emily contacted me efficiently and professionally as soon as I sent a web question. Her knowledge, patience, and impeccable customer service encouraged me to choose them among a sea of competitors. Once I actually visited the shop, I met with Tammy. She was informative and enthusiastic about the services I chose and went over them again with me to explain how to maintain my vehicle. She and the techs worked with me regarding when I could drop off and pick up my vehicle and even assisted in coordinatIng a window chip repair service to have something repaired in time to deliver my vehicle in the time estimated. The technicians treated my car with great care and they did an amazing job with the PPF, tinting, and ceramic coating. I am beyond pleased with the service and products of this business. 100% would recommend them for your tint/PPF/coating/wrap needs!!!!!

I wrapped my Tesla at Afs. I also did ceramic coating as well. I am so happy with the results. They are honest and really specialist in what they do. Afs does thorough job as they take out panel tuck wrap/ppf to the behind the panel to keep it strong and covering panels. This is a lot of work when you compare to just putting film on a standing car. For sure it will make the film long lasting and also there will be no unprotected parts. Ceramic coating makes car really slick and easier to clean. I am following their advice and always hand washing my car. I would recommend everyone to Afs only.Enjoy your Car!!!

The team at AFS North location is wonderful to talk and work with. My contact was Tammy and she was very sweet, informative, and took the time to answer my questions throughout the whole experience. She was always available and gave great incite on what would be best for our GX 460. Seth was also helpful and made sure everything worked out.They have a follow up process where you can take your vehicle back in two weeks and they’ll make sure their work is close to perfect. If there is an issue they’ll resolve it.I’ve been to other well known auto detailing places in Houston and would definitely recommend AFS North hands down. You will not be disappointed.

Before yesterday, we had them apply film protection on the front of our Model Y and ceramic coating on the entire car. Yesterday, they applied tint to the all windows and windshield. We are extremely pleased with the 'perfect' job. The staff and technicians are professionals with top workmanship skills. Kudos to Seth and Tammy and the entire team.

Prior to tinting my window, Tammy at the front desk did an AMAZING walking through the process with me and what to expect. On top of that, she mentioned a sale I wasn't aware about, which helped me save a bit! The tint job on my car was done perfectly in such a short amount of time. Thank y'all so much!

Seth, and the boys at AFS, are amazing. The quality of their work, and attention to detail, are second to none.The pride they have in their standard of care was evident, but what stood out the most was the quality of people, and family atmosphere, that Seth has created there. They’re all just really good dudes, who enjoy their line of work, and it manifests in the final product, which you get to enjoy.I highly recommend AFS to anyone who wants top-shelf work done, and only wishes to take their business to quality people. If those two factors are high on your priority list, as they topped mine, then there’s no place else like AFS.Thanks, boys!

If anyone is looking for tint or PPF work done I HIGHLY recommend AFS (Auto Film Specialists) located next to the Tesla service center on Hwy 45.Seth Hua in particular was amazing with answering my every question, giving suggestions without being pushy, and walking me through the process start to finish. He even worked around my awkward schedule and made sure my M3 was charged properly while in his care.Can’t say enough awesome things about Seth and his team. Give them a call today!!!

Needed a side panel and front bumper wrap replacement with ceramic coat for my model Y. Didn’t have anyone local for this (relo’d from SoCal recently) and AFS happened to be next to the SC. Checked them out and they had great reviews. Was able to see them work on the cars as the shop is in a side section of the showroom. They did a great job-very professional and knowledgeable. Definitely recommend!

AFS (Auto Film Specialists) North Houston did a very professional tint job on my 2022 Tesla Model Y. They provide a fast and easy online reservation and payment system.

I went to Auto Film Specialists for some track stickers for the car. Seth took great care of me and definitely went above and beyond, even for such a small service. He was great to speak with, and he was very flexible on hours, as I was only able to come by the shop at a specific time. I would definitely recommend Auto Film Specialists and Seth to everyone!

Absolutely love this shop and glad I had my work done here. If you are purchasing a Tesla just drop it off next door, they share a building. Had tint, PPF, and stek dynoshield installed. Only issue I had was the dynoshield had a wave in it (known manufacturer issue). Called AFS and they are taking care of it. That’s why you go to a quality shop like this, the warranty and service is the real value. Would definitely recommend.

THE BEST Auto wrap in the nation. Honestly 5 stars doesn't speak enough for the quality and customer service that I have experienced. Looking at their website, I was afraid that my Toyota would not have as much love as those other high end vehicles that they do, yet don't fear.AFS treatment was beyond high quality service, attention to detail, and superb customer service. Ask for Seth, and then I'll suspect you will be staring at your fantastic car like I am.

Seth was awesome to work with. Professional, knowledgeable and courteous. He installed some coilovers from Unplugged Performance on my Model Y LR and my car looks & drives better than it did from the factory. I can’t say enough positive things about trusting someone like Seth and AFS with your car. Thank you again for all your hard work!

Seth and his team were outstanding from day one. We brought our vehicle over for paint protection and window tinting shortly after picking it up from the dealership. Seth personally helped us inspect the vehicle and pointed out a few dings that we were able to get the dealership to fix.The communication was fantastic from the moment we dropped off our car until we picked it up.The quality of the work exceeded our expectations.10/10 would recommend Auto Film Specialist for all of your wrap/ paint protection/ tinting needs.

Window tinting installed for Tesla Model 3.Seth and co. were friendly & professional.They stand behind their work and encouraged me to come in at any time if I have any issues, which gives me peace of mind on my investment. They even offered for me to come in every year if I ever needed help removing annual registration sticker from the windshield without damaging the crystalline film.Would definitely use their services again.

I came in for a window tint and wrap inquiry and I was so happy with detailed knowledge I received from Emily. She was willing to help and take the time to explain the benefits, process, costs of window tinting. She gave me a new perspective on wraps as well. I am so glad I inquired with Auto film specialists and have Emily there to help me along the way. She was a joy, friendly and very professional.

I have use their service twice this past year and I was never disappointed. A year ago Audi (old employee) was honest and professional about my PPF and Ceramic Coating. He kept me posted and sent photos on each process. He made the experience smooth and stress free.Recently, another car hit my side fender and luckily enough it only went through the Xpel PPF. When the XPel PPF was removed, there was no dent or paint damage which made the decision to get another Xpel PPF a no brainer. This time around Seth help me out. He was professional and honest as well which made the second time even easier. This place is always top notch and their work is amazing. If you want your car to be treated with the utmost respect, then this is the right place.

Shout-out to Mike and Audi at Auto Film Specialists.I don't normally do reviews but when a company does top-notch service and exemplary business, then they deserve all the praises. I admit I was apprehensive at first making a major change to my "baby". However, the AFS team did a tremendous job and turned my ride into a gorgeous one. They breathed new life to my car that I get a thrill just looking at it with its new skin (Inozetek Midnight Red with gloss black highlights in the right places), even in the garage standing still. A fitting Father's Day gift from my loving wife... 😄If you are like me who's on the fence, don't be, you won't be sorry. I'm smiling ear-to-ear (behind the COVID mask). You can trust the guys at AFS to do a great job.Thanks again Mike and Audi... I know where to take my next project... Take care and more power. 👍👏

First, I want to say that I am not one to write reviews but I feel compelled to write one for these guys.. Afs has given me probably the best customer service experience that I have ever received. In particular Audi, he is The Man in my book. He took really good care of me and my New Model Y. I highly recommend going to see Audi if you need anything done to your car, you will not be disappointed. Audi and his team do incredible work. Thank You Audi and the guys who helped on my car. I would give 10 stars if I could.

They are pros! Two years ago I trusted them on my '19 F-150 (70% 3M crystalline) and just last week, I trusted them again to take care of my new Tesla M3. For the Tesla, we opted for full front XPEL ppf, 70% 3M crystalline, 30% 3m ceramic tint and they wrapped my console in white to perfectly match my Tesla's white interior.To make a long story short, what really stands out to me is their customer service. When I got my truck tinted 2 years ago, the installer at the north location wasn't satisfied with the job he did so they asked me if I would be ok coming back when a more experienced installer could make sure it was done right. Rare to find a business that will even admit that! On my Tesla, I show up on the wrong date (totally my fault) for a quality check up and they didn't even hesitate to fit me in. In fact, they were so nice about fitting me in that they didn't even tell me that I was the one at fault (I found out on my own after the fact). Lastly, Audi is the man... Period..DO NOT GO ANYWHERE ELSE TO GET A FILM ETC. BEST IN HOUSTON IMO.

I was very impressed by the work done by AFS. The communication was great. I had the full front done with rocker panels and windows tinted on a Model Y. I dropped it off on a Friday and it was ready to pick up on Saturday. I highly recommend AFS. They seem like real car guys that take pride in their work.

Seth at AFS did an amazing and flawless job on my car! I came to AFS to get my Tesla Model 3 de-chromed, brake calipers painted, and mainly to install my air suspension. It was my first time there and my first time getting air suspension for any car -- right away, Seth greeted me and took his time to walk me through all of the components and made sure I understood step by step of the whole process. He even went above and beyond my expectations and beautifully custom wrapped my air tank! (see pics) The quality and customer service was definitely top notched!I plan on bringing my car back to Seth and AFS for future mods and services. Most definitely recommend this shop for any type of services for you car -- they are very passionate and very knowledgeable of what they do.

I got my 2018 GTS worked on at AFS, and the quality and value was great. I highly recommend anyone looking to get protective work on their vehicle done come here. They are very diligent with their work. For my GTS, I had paint correction, ceramic coating and PPF done. I also had some minor, cosmetic bumper work done, and AFS was able to do this as well! Car looks almost brand new!I worked with Seth and he kept me updated on progress and sent me pictures throughout the entire process. I am a very satisfied customer and will definitely be coming back. Thanks, AFS!

We would not take our car anywhere but to AFS!! Excellent people and thorough with their job. Audi is a fantastic person and is not a pushy sales guy. He gives you all the information and even encourages you to do online research before deciding the direction one wants to go. We had our 2021 Model X windshield installed with 3M film CIR 70, and CR70 on all windows, rear shield and sunroof. The work is flawless!!We did not want anymore tinting but just keep the sun out.Great people, great service, great work!

This place provides a high-end product with truly exceptional service. The team took the time to answer my many, many questions and made sure that I fully understood every step of the process.After waiting more than a year for my brand new C8 Corvette, I was nervous bout leaving my new baby in a stranger’s hands but they very quickly earned trust and made me feel comfortable that they have as much respect for my vehicle as I do. If you have any doubts, just look at the high-end vehicles that other customers trust them with.The services aren’t cheap but I definitely feel like I got good value for my money and, as I said earlier, the service is top notch they stand behind their work. AFS will be my go-to tint, PPF, ceramic, etc. installer from now on.
