Charlestown drivers don’t have to settle for a quick, cheap job. MarxModified AutoStyling installs premium GeoShield window film, wraps with Avery Dennison, 3M, KPMF and ORAFOL, wires custom lighting so it looks factory, and fits styling parts like splitters, spoilers and carbon fiber trim. We tint to Maryland law when your car is registered there, so you leave legal.

Window tinting for Charlestown drivers

We install two GeoShield films. C2 Carbon is a great-looking tint at a great price. Apex Ultra Ceramic blocks up to 96% of infrared heat, even in its lightest shade. Both block over 99% of UV rays and come with a lifetime warranty. We never install dyed tint.

Legal window tint in Maryland

Maryland allows 35% on the front side, rear side and back windows of passenger cars. On multipurpose vehicles like SUVs, vans and pickups, the windows behind the driver can go darker. The windshield can be tinted above the AS-1 line.

For a Maryland-registered car we recommend 35% all around. Go with Apex Ultra Ceramic 35% for the most heat rejection, or C2 Carbon 35% for a great look at a lower price. The law that applies is the one in the state where your car is registered, so a Delaware-registered car follows Delaware’s limits instead. See tint laws by state or try the tint visualizer.

Custom car lighting in Charlestown

We design and install custom 12-volt lighting for cars, trucks, Jeeps and SUVs from Charlestown. Go with one clean color, or choose color-changing lights you control from your phone.

  • Rock lights: waterproof LED pods in the wheel wells and along the frame, from 4 pod kits up to 16 pods or more.
  • Underglow: LED strips under the body that put a glow around the whole car.
  • Light bars and spot lights: bumper, grille, roof and A-pillar mounted lights for the trail.
  • LED headlights and fog lights: brighter, whiter upgrades for better visibility at night.
  • Grille and accent lighting: grille lights, light-up badges and color-changing snake eye or demon eye accents.
  • Interior ambient lighting: LED accents on the doors, dash and footwells.
  • Work truck lighting: cab lights, strobes and warning lights for work, plow and service trucks, plus a clean, labeled switch panel to run it all.

Every circuit gets its own fuse, high-draw lights run through a relay, outside connections are sealed against water, mud and road salt, and wires are routed out of sight. Got a messy kit someone else put in? We’ll redo it the right way. Every lighting install comes with our 1-year craftsmanship warranty plus the manufacturer’s warranty on the lights. Read our lighting guide.

Keeping your lights street legal in Maryland

Maryland has its own rules for aftermarket lighting, so check them before you drive. As a rule of thumb, never run red lights facing forward, leave flashing blue, red and green to emergency vehicles, and save light bars, rock lights and underglow for off-road, parked or at the show. We’ll help you set up switches so your show lighting stays off on the road.

Car accessories and styling parts in Charlestown

Accessories are where a car starts to feel like yours. We install exterior and interior styling parts on cars, trucks and SUVs from Charlestown:

  • Front lips and splitters: a lower, more aggressive front end.
  • Side skirts, rear diffusers and rear lips: a sleeker side profile and a sportier rear.
  • Spoilers and wings: from subtle trunk lips to full spoilers, including add-on wicker bills.
  • Window louvers: side and rear louvers for a classic muscle car look.
  • Carbon fiber trim: mirror caps, door handles, trunk lips and more.
  • Grilles, badges and bumpers: replacement grilles, blacked-out or debadged emblems, and aftermarket bumpers.
