> [@GranMassaX](#): > > 35% on the evo and I’ve never been bothered (never had a problem with no front plate either) for 4+ years… so much for cops targeting imports ;D Same here. How much to strip the tint I have now (35%) from all four doors, sunroof, and rear windshield…and get 20% in place of it? How much for 20% on all four doors, rear window (one piece), sunroof, and a strip on the top part of the front windshield where the OEM “tint” is. How long is your warranty? What kind of tint do you use? Let me know. Thanks. ---

> [@chris88z24](#): > > True, but there is a MUCH less chance of getting stopped with 35. I know a lot of officers go by the “If I can see in the car I won’t pull them over” rule. If you get pulled over for any other reason, and they feel like being a dick, they can pull out there handy-dandy little machines and stick it on your window and give you a ticket regardless… bastards :angry2 ---

Yeah cops can be real asshole when they want to be, but techincaly for a very discreet tint you can fight a ticket in court if the cop failed to use a tint meter (obviously if your tints like 5% he doesnt really need one) Acctualy any tint that did not come on the car from factory is considered illegal… Granted the cop could lie and say he did im just putting it out there. Most cops are not gonna be doucehbags and pull you over for tint unless your doing something stupid or something else is wrong on your car… like if they heard the loud obnoxious RAWR of joeys vtech when he dident have a muffler ;D I’ve been hasseld for my tint once, once, but that was that douchebag colonie cop, but im going darker next year, probably 15% in the back and 20-25% up front ---
