i know tint % is deffrent form state to state.....but umm for those of you that have tints or had tints....how often did you get pulled over? and dont they just kinda tell you "thats illegal".....well i guess they can jsut give you a ticket.


i deff want the rear pitch black
actully i want everyhtign pitch black.

so prolly anywhere from $100 to $200 for professional
casue im deff not doin it myself



Well, I HAD my windows 5% all around. I had it like that for 2 years
I have been pulled over many times and no one ever said anything
about it. I recently had some bad luck and a cop wanted to be a
dick and decided to give me a ticket. Not a big deal "fix it" ticket.

EDIT: and no he did not say that is illegal, he used a film machine
to test the thickness of the film. But like i said i have been pulled
over 7+ times in the last 2 years and they never said anything about it.

anything more than 150.00 is wasting your money for window tint.
Here in Texas its about 130.00 and that is a fair price. I have done it
myself only because when inspection time comes around i have to
remove it and re-apply it. So i decided to do it, the window tint cost
30.00?? If that and the application process is easy.

If i were you just to be safe i would do 5% on the rear three windows,
and somewhere around 25-35% for the fronts. But if you dont think it
will be a big deal go ahead and do 5% all around, i did for 2 years and
never had anyone say anything.

Hope this helps.
