Option A: Tint Back window and quarter windows 20% and the driver/passenger windows legal at 35% Fully Legal Option B: Tint all windows at 20% Illegal for the driver/passenger window Option C: Tint all windows at 35% Fully Legal I'm worried that option A will look funny with darker back windows Does anyone have some pics of a set up like that? Any other pics of ur tint jobs would be greatly appreciated. Thanks __________________ In order to live, you must be willing to die. 06 Torch Red GT: pypes axleback, o/r H pipe.

Cops may not care, but there is alsay that one bastard/bitch that will give you one, I had 35% tint and got stopped (it registered as 28% due to the factory tint) and got slamed with a $50 ticket, oh yeah, this was after 6 months and a few cops looking at my car with the tints and not caring, till a bitch of a cop stopped me.

All my friends just have the factory tint so they never get bothered with it. Is it hard to see out the back with that 5% tint at night? __________________ In order to live, you must be willing to die. 06 Torch Red GT: pypes axleback, o/r H pipe.

My daily driver truck is tinted with 2 layers of 5% on the back and 20% on the sides. I just like my windows dark as hell and am very used to it now. __________________ View and purchase my pics: http://erinmayphotography.exposuremanager.com/g/ Eleanor Desktop - http://erinmayphotography.exposurema...ormoonposter13

Between night driving, reflection and potential hassle, option A is worthy of a lot of consideration. I did legal 35 driver/pass and 15 quarter and rear (ceramic) and got the aesthetics I wanted. Unless you are a vampire.....

I like C, I have 50's all around (got a ticket for 35's) I'm missing the back window since I'm having it replaced, but 50's pretty dark, espcially when you tint the whole front Windshield
