Tint Pros 2025 Paint Protection & Restyling Highlights
As 2025 comes to a close, our team at Tint Pros is taking a moment to reflect on what has been one of our most exciting and rewarding years yet. From high-profile builds to everyday drivers, this year reinforced why Tint Pros continues to be recognized as the best car paint protection shop in Minneapolis, and why so many vehicle owners trust us with their vehicles.
From Teslas to exotics, SUVs to sports cars, one thing remained constant in 2025: every project received the same obsessive attention to detail and craftsmanship.
2025 Highlight: Tesla & Cybertruck Protection Became a Defining Part of Our Year
Throughout 2025, Tesla owners continued to choose Tint Pros not just for protection, but for a complete visual upgrade. By combining paint protection film and ceramic coatings, drivers were able to safeguard their vehicles while enhancing gloss, depth, and overall presence. The added shine and hydrophobic performance of a ceramic coating gave Teslas a richer finish and easier long-term maintenance.
With Tesla paint known for being softer and more vulnerable, many owners turned to paint protection film as the ultimate solution. Tint Pros offers PPF in gloss, matte, and color finishes, making it possible to protect the vehicle while adding individuality and style. From full-body PPF and track-package coverage to stealth matte transformations, each build delivered protection that performs just as good as it looks.
That same approach carried into one of 2025’s biggest trends, color PPF Cybertruck transformations. As Cybertrucks arrived in Minneapolis, owners trusted our team to protect the stainless exterior while completely redefining its appearance. Using premium color PPF, we created bold satin and high-gloss finishes that added personality without sacrificing durability. These Cybertruck builds quickly became some of the most eye-catching projects in our shop and a defining part of our year.
2025 Projects Across Every Make & Model
While Teslas are a big part of our identity, 2025 showcased the full range of what Tint Pros can do. This year, we worked on:
- Luxury SUVs and full-size trucks
- Performance sports cars
- Daily drivers and family vehicles
- Custom builds and show-ready rides
From subtle protection to full visual transformations, our gallery tells the story best. Check out our project gallery to see the wide variety of makes and models we’ve had the privilege of working on throughout Minneapolis and the surrounding areas.
Why Tint Pros Stood Out In 2025
One reason Tint Pros stands out is our ability to handle everything in-house. In 2025, our most popular services included:
- Paint Protection Film (PPF) – high gloss, matte, and color PPF Minneapolis drivers love for both protection and style
- Ceramic Coatings – delivering long-term gloss, hydrophobic performance, and easier maintenance
- Car Window Tint Minneapolis customers rely on for heat rejection, UV protection, and comfort
- Vinyl Wraps & Color Changes – from subtle tones to bold, head-turning finishes
Whether a customer came in for protection, customization, or a full transformation, our goal stayed the same: elevate the vehicle and protect the investment.
2025 Highlight: Paint Protection, WindowTint & Elite Customization
Escalade Transformation for Cubs Player Will Castro
One standout project from 2025 was an incredible Cadillac Escalade build for Will Castro, formerly with the Minnesota Twins and now representing the Chicago Cubs. We’re incredibly grateful for the continued trust in another build, and this one truly came out next level.
This Escalade received:
- 3M Satin Dark Grey wrap
- Gloss Black roof
- Ceramic window tint
- Red caliper paint
- Gloss Black powder-coated wheels
- Full ceramic coating
Projects like this perfectly reflect what Tint Pros does best, blending protection, performance, and unmistakable style.
Honda Pilot Blacked Out with Matte PPF, Ceramic Tint & More
This Honda Pilot was taken far beyond stock with a full transformation built around protection and style. Wrapped in UltraFit matte black paint protection film, finished with ceramic tint, a full chrome delete, smoked head and taillight PPF, and red caliper paint for the perfect contrast, every detail was dialed in. Gloss black powder-coated wheels and a ceramic coating tied it all together, delivering next-level durability with an aggressive, head-turning finish.
Fuchsia Vinyl Wrap with Powder Coating, Lip Kit & Ceramic Coating
This build was all about bold personality and flawless execution. Finished in a gloss fuchsia vinyl wrap with black accents, paired with yellow caliper paint, gloss black powder-coated wheels, and a lower lip kit with wrap-matched stripes, every detail was intentional. A custom reflective “Stud Budz” decal, ceramic coating, and a starlight headliner by Saint Nordic completed the transformation, delivering a show-stopping look with lasting protection.
Projects like this reflected the level of trust and visibility Tint Pros saw in 2025, with repeat and high-profile clients continuing to return for their next build.
