Re: Window Tint
Not arguing the fact that its frustrating to the car owners, as I have recieved more than one ticket for tint myself back in the day. One big reason that they sweat you for super dark tint is officer safety. If the officer can't see in the car, they get very nervous during a traffic stop, since they don't know they won't be staring down the barrel of a gun when the window comes down. Just my .02

Re: Window Tint
Yeah im sure ill be fine. But there are those cops out there that want to be buttholes and give u tickets when it is legal. I know 50% tint isnt that much but i'd rather pay once rather than have to pay multiple times to get it redone and pay for the ticket if a cop decides to give me one.

Re: Window Tint
A guy at my work had his tinted illegal on his Grand Prix. He said he gets a ticket about every year and said that he looks at it like a fee to have dark windows because he doesn't mind paying...... After he told me that he got tickets 4 times in one month, then decided to get it tinted legally lol..
Like the one guy said earlier, they can only check the rear windows if you roll it down. All you have to say is that your rear windows don't roll down..... Going by the state inspection book, only the drivers side window has to go down... So there's nothing for him to argue about. He can't reach inside and roll it down himself... So you can get the fronts tinted legally and the rears illegally and you won't get a ticket aslong as you don't roll them down for the cop.

Re: Window Tint
The Same thing happened to Me in Colonial Heights those lazy assholes have nothing better to do with they're time. I have an Interga and I've been pulled twice for window tint I have 20% all around. To me Its a B/S law. Why would you like your car hot inside.. Why would you want people seeing the expensive Jdm items and stereo shit in your car maybe a wallet or cell phone.. I'm not paying for tint that doesnt serve a purpose (I.E) 50-35. Me I say to hell with em I'll pay the damn 110 dollar fine

Re: Window Tint
never heard that in my life. i have 3 friends that are cops. they arent ass holes about it. the only way they pull you over is if your doing something obviously wrong, speeding, loud ass exhaust etc... chesapeake cops are strict, but i guess where you guys are they are worse?

Re: Window Tint
I think you guys should start posting up pics.
I have 35% all the way around and its ok in the daytime but at night its totally dark because it had the factory tinted glass and plus my interior is black too.
I backed down out of the 50% in the front and 35% in the back, or 35% in the front and 20% in the back.. because I thought 2 different tints would look dumb
don't get tint that is 50%.. waste of money
