Went to Topp It Customs today here down in Marietta, Ga... left my car there around 2, guy said it'd be done by 4. Well, thanks to my t-mobie phone, which is such a great providor frown.gif, I didn't get the message he left me at 2:35 until 3:55 that the tint guy was in an accident and wouldn't be able to make it.

However, he says he can refer me to a buddy of his up the road who might be able to get it done today. So, I drive over there and talk to the guy. It's about 4:40... tells me to come back around 7... but, when I asked him how much he wanted for the job... got a nice surprise... he wanted $30 less than the other guy... so sweet.

We agree to do 35% all the way around, the legal limit is either 32% or 35%, I couldn't remember, so I went with the 35% to be safe. Well, I go get the car, and he put 30% all the way around.

It looks sick, the dark black on silver, but it's not legal. It's a stupid reason for a cop to pull you over, but where I live, Acworth and Kennesaw city police will pull me over... so, gotta go back and get it re-done rolleyes.gif

LOL....ha...ha...that funny! Man you're freaking out over nothing. Cops don't normally pull people over for tints unless your tints are extremely dark....and even if you did get pull over and you were found over by 2% over, they are not going to write you a ticket, unless you're being an ass when they pull you over. The only thing they might do, they might give you a warning or something.

If you don't belive me look at my car, my tints are like 15% or something i can't really remember and i've been pull over many times, and they never say anything about my tints. Just put your frickin' windows down or something....relax its not that serious buddy wink.gif

I agree w/ Ricochet! 35% isn't a big deal. I bought mine with 35% already on the windows...but they were so light looking they didnt even look tinted so I had them re-done to 20%. Ive been pulled over once or twice & have had no problems wink.gif

But...you gotta go with whatever makes you feel safer! biggrin.gif Guess it all depends on the cop & how much of an ass he wants to be that day lol
