Let's read what I wrote again.
*If* you demand an immediate resolution on a low-priority luxury service during a global health crisis, you
*are going to* *look like* a selfish, arrogant punk.
Nowhere did I call you anything.
I selected my words very carefully to make my message as clear as possible. If you choose to read it incorrectly, and are hurt by an accusation I didn't make, that's your choice, not mine.

My identity is not material to this discussion, but I have no affiliation with any tint shop and have never been to Virginia. If I was working for them, I'd cut you a check and suggest you take your business elsewhere in the future; old vehicles are more troublesome to work on than newer ones, and their owners often have a combination of unreasonable expectations and empty pockets that make them not worth the bother.

Wait a moment. You pretended to be someone else in order to kink the discussion? Dishonesty will not help you.
Sometimes people stop responding once they realize who they're dealing with, or that they're dealing with someone who is dishonest with them. If that happens to you, it might be time to reexamine your approach.

I'm not siding with anybody. Your post was titled, "Need some advice before i lose my cool on this tiny shop please.". I offered you measured advice on how to avoid losing your cool. In response, you lost your cool with me. Seems like there's a common factor here.

Perhaps this shop is closed and only occasionally checking email and voicemail messages.
Perhaps the owner, or an employee, or a family member caught the Covid.
Perhaps a beloved pet died. Perhaps a teenage son or daughter got into a bad car crash. Perhaps an elderly relative took ill.
Perhaps the owner is out of state on his first real vacation in many years, and the shop is running on a skeleton crew, with nobody there who has the authority to handle your situation.
Perhaps they simply don't want to deal with a customer they believe is demanding, difficult to deal with, and likely impossible to satisfy. I've had customers like that, and I fired every one of them. They are more trouble than they are worth.
Being a reasonable adult, you will, of course, have considered these possibilities before you choose your course of action.

And im getting the window redone elsewhere and putting the bill for that in my suit. Im also going after them for court fees as well. I have the warranty on paper they dont stand a chance in hell.
Let's talk about that for a moment.

You posted the above on 07/05.
Now, which is it? Did you file a civil suit "a week ago" (one week before 07/5), or were you on that date "about to" file a civil suit? If you were "about to" on July 5, you must have done it by now. Did you do it?
We need to know what is actually happening so we can give you the advice you asked for. Help us understand which of your statements are true and which are not true so we can help you get the result you want.

I suppose it is for some people, but I try not to do it. That's why I didn't call you any names. However, I do speak frankly to those whom I feel are mature enough to take constructive criticism without getting defensive or going on the attack. Sounds like we aren't quite there yet.
Well, I never lost a fight yet, but to be fair, the last fight I had was around 1986; in adulthood, I have made it a policy to not get into situations that require fighting. It's an approach I recommend you give serious consideration.
