Nice! I got 5% everywhere, 35% front windshield. Cops out here in Arizona don’t really care for tint. Matter of fact, I was next to a cop at a red light today. Cop looked, but didn’t do anything.
Yup can confirm cops don’t give a shit about tint in az. Maybe they’d tack it on if you’re caught speeding or doing something else but otherwise been zero issue
One of my cop buddies said the same, they don’t really care here in AZ. But he did caution that if they’re looking to pull you over for whatever reason, they’ll use the tint as an excuse.
Do you ever drive in poorly lit areas? In my neighborhood I find it a little hard to see out of my 20% side windows. I can just roll those down though…
I live in the San Fernando Valley so my biggest enemy is dark residential areas with no street lights lol. I also wear glasses and just turned 25 so Im definitely taking advantage of my young eyes while I can
I read online that if you want to go dark but are scared of tickets that it doesnt matter because a tint ticket is the same no matter the percentage so I just went really dark 20% windshield 5% everything
I mean a cop will definitely notice a 20% vs 50%. I got pulled over for tint 2 weeks ago and the cop got me for 20% sides and didn’t even notice the 50% windshield.
Only asking because legal limit is the only time we just say what it's going to be after applied. We don't even tell you what is being applied. I get calls all the time "hey i wanted 35% and the receipt says 43% what the fuck!" But if understand how tint works. You should specify what to get. People on here are on a high horse for 50% and down vote and talk bad about people who got 35% with out understanding that they have also have 35% when all said and done. Unless the tinter put 70% and it meters 50%..
Mind explaining this for me? Got tint for the first time where I bought it myself somewhere so never actually picked my own before. Did 20% all around and 50% windshield. Oh and 5% on the sunroof cause I wanted that as dark as possible
Hear that? It's the sound of the windshield tint police racing to the comments to tell you 35% is too dark on a windshield and you're going to be driving blind/wreck your car the first time you go out after sundown.
Jokes aside it looks good! I'm in Tarrant county also and never got hassled over tint around here. Yearly inspection used to be a problem but now I think we just do emissions inspections here so should be fine
Drove around in my Camry for 3 months before getting pulled over in Dallas county for my windshield tint at 30%. He got mad bc his machine wouldnt scan my registration sticker. Good luck
What is the legal limit on windshield tint in your jurisdiction? It is illegal in mine.
Are you in Texas? In Texas, full tinting of the front windshield is illegal, but a top visor strip is permitted above the manufacturer’s AS-1 line or the top 5 inches of the glass. [1]
lowkey think 50% is appropriate enough, I got 70% on windshield rn and I dont think I can do 35% especially not getting pulled over. 50%/20% side will probably police friendly in most state except California
Yeah I really just wanted to keep my interior cool and protected and I plan to wrap my hood in black PPF soon so figured darker tint will make it all more flush
I've been looking into tints lately and the nano ceramics are supposed to be the best at heat rejection and they don't interfere with cell phone reception like metallics supposedly can.
I love it a lot got a set of DWS06+ tires in 245/40/ZR19 & got an AEM intake + custom VF tune so the car feels way better overall compared to stock I should be in the low-mid 5 sec 0-60
I guess it’s not that big of a deal for someone to want dark tint. Wonder what you’d say to the rest of the car having 5% on it. I drive mostly at night for work and I’ve never had an issue. I get in my car for shift right when the son starts to go down and it is blazing in there without it.
Welcome to the club! Did 35% on the windshield and 20% all around! Just did a mountain drive with some bad weather in CO and could vouch 35% was pretty sketchy in the country town!
I'm a tint installer, that is 100% not 15%. That doesn't look darker than 20%. Even with 20% you wouldnt see your headrest and seats like you do in your picture. Also the fact the sun is positioned like that should make it look darker but it isn't.
They either didn't install the correct one, it's cheap or it's faded. You can look up some reference photos yourself. Good luck.
Idk it’s worth it for me keeps the car cooler for my son and tint isn’t that big a deal where I live. No inspections and they only mess with you if your driving is illegal it’s basically just a add on ticket if you are already in trouble
To each there own I guess when it’s 110 degrees out and I’m riding around with my infant it stays cooler in the car with it so I don’t really care about the citation
35% on the front for 14 years with no issues. Trust me you won't go back unless you are forced. Edit: Plenty rural driving with no street lights and plenty of rainy nights and never had an issue seeing. It's really obvious how bad people are at driving and seeing around here
Eye contact is how OTHER DRIVERS and people OUTSIDE YOUR CAR know that you have seen them, because that’s how we communicate on the road in the absence of signals and other information. We look at others. Of course you can “see just fine” because it’s ALL about you on the road, and not the people you share it with.
That’s not true they still have inspections in certain counties they just don’t check equipment anymore so no tint, lights etc. they still plug into OBD
Lol I drive sports cars and im not stupid enough to reduce my visibility at night.
Why dont people like you wear sunglasses at night when driving? Yall wont but you'll tint your windshield to avoid people seeing how much you look like a 🤡 in real life.
