    Default Window Tint

    So i've been pulled over twice now for my tint in the past three weeks. Luckily i've gotten away with 2 warnings. My tint is reading at 17%. I tried googling for specifics on the laws. Can i just re-tint my 2 front windows to 35% and keep the
    hatch and quarter windows 17%? Whats up with the sudden crack down? The state patrol that pulled me over this morning not only made me late for work but blocked traffic on 400 in an intersection and then proceeded to turn on his siren...WTF

    The law came into effect again, 35% is legal. You can retint your front windows 35% and keep the rest 17%. Your two front windows is all the police are concerned about.

    Technically the new law states that its all the windows that they can test, but after seeing their tester you know they cant test one that doesn't roll down.

    I got pulled over with my wife while we were on out anniversary trip.. mine registered 17 also, which I think means we both had 20% installed.

    I am stripping mine tomorrow and having my friend Cory at Radioactive redo them for me at the legal limit.

    In the end its not worth the trouble of having them a little bit darker.

    Luckilly I have had it on my car for about 2 years and have never had any issues. I guess alot has to do with the area as well, Roswell/Alpharetta seems to have better shit to do then worry about my tint
