    Oh snap!

    I *totally* forgot to pay my tint ticket! I better jump on that tomorrow.


    You know, I won't take my tint off. It's 5% all around, and I love my privacy. However, I ride around with the windows down alot, and my windows are always down, my lights turned on and my keys on my dash WHENEVER I get pulled over. I have to respect the need for safety, both the cop's and mine.

    Cops can still give you a ticket for illegal window tint... all they have to do is ask you to roll one of your front windows up a little bit after being stopped.

    she's just saying she has them down alot so they aren't even noticed as being dark but if she does get pulled over she has them down so they can see in....not saying she won't get a ticket, just that it helps them and they are more likely to let you go...i got pulled over every week by suwanee for my 17% tint...twice by the same cop because i changed wheels and he didn't recognize the car, lol...each time i was let go.

    cops can't make you do anything. All of the times i've been pulled over i rolled my windows down, both of them, and dealt witht he cop. 2/3 of them asked me to roll my windows up (cuz they couldn't give me tickets for what they had planned) and I said no, and they gave me bullshit threat/stories and what not and i still said no and they just left me alone. 1 of'em followed me for a while even pulling up next to me as he saw me leaning over in my car (was about to roll up my passenger window), and i looked up and GRINNED at his ass and started laughing and then left it down. good shit.

    that ticket probably just doubled if you forgot to pay it.
    i forgot a fuckin seat belt ticket cause i was in class, and when i payed it the next day, the bitch was like $90. city clerk probably thought i was gonna kill her cause i flipped the fuck out about it.

    5% isn't shit. and if they gave a tint ticket for that....they're gay.
    i think 5% is like limo tint or some shit.

    nope, it reads backwards...but for some reason J.C whitney would always sell their tint with the numbers reversed.

    32% is the law, as in maximum of 32% of light is blocked or 68% of light passes through.

    What? No. 75% is nothing. That allows 75% of the light through.

    25% is MUCH darker as it only allows 25% of the light through. 5% would be almost black as it only allows 5% of the light through.
