    i removed mine before my court date... took several photos and showed the judge. Fine was only $75 and just retinted it legal limit after that

    Does it make any difference if you purchased the tint when the tint laws were removed. GA's indecisiveness better not cost me money.

    nope... I had mine tinted when they got rid of the law. Even had the receipt. He did lower my fine for taking it off though.


    I wouldnt worry about it.... i had 15% and drove around for 8 months before some cop had nothing better to do than to pull me over.

    sucks, both smyrna and cobb co charges about $80, i know cuz i got one from both. 2nd one convinced me to get it taken care of. walked into court day of my hearing, spent less than a min telling the prosecutor i'd had it taken care of, he said it was dropped, w/o inspection cuz he'd take my word for it

    I went almost a year w/ 15% and no problems. It just depends the mood of the cop really. Most never really gave me any problems.

    as long as ur not in an old black out beater than u are usually straight. His tint was like less than 5 up front and the rear... thats why he got busted. 15 and up should be ok as long as the cop isn't PMSin.

    this is really stupid... someone that is going to shoot a cop.. isnt going to stop when they pull you over. Also if someone was doing something illegal they would just constantly pay the fine and leave the tint. Note that lots of cop cars have rediculously dark tint cops = hypocrits
