Unfortunately, the guy thought I said dark all the way around when I said go light in the front two and medium on the back.

I can get them replaced for free when and if I get pulled over. Got it in writing.

How long do you guys think it will take to get pulled over?

What % are they? I have 5% on mine and have no trouble with the cops here.

Yeah but California is like texas you can make it for about 2 weeks on too dark of a tint before that dickhead state trooper pulls you over because he thinks you are either illegal or a drug dealer.

here im pretty sure no one would bother you about limo tint on the windshield... the only thing cops around here care about are "them damn thumpers"

limo tint on your straight-piped mustangs windshield=not a problem
turn the subs up enough that the next car over can hear= $150 ticket

I have no idea what percent they are, but they're dark. Hell, I would pull myself over.

i think there should be a sticker on your window that says what percent they are..............or that's what the place i got mine tinted at did.

No sticker kid.

It's a hole in the wall place I guess. $120.00 to take off all the old tint (just had the back three windows) and add new tint all the way around except the windshield.

I was quoted 180 for a fucking ford escort with no tint on it right now.

^you guys are getting ripped off. My friend sorta knows the owner, but even the place by my parent's house (no hook up whatsoever) would have done it for $170.00. Removal and install.

Warranty is there because they made the mistake.

$200 CDN for removal of old tint and application of new, one-shade-under-limo black on the 3 rear windows, including disassembly and reassembly of the hatch. Had it done 3 weeks ago.

yeah I paid $200 CDN for tinting on my 4dr bmw 325, best $200 I ever spent appearancewise.. it's dark but not really dark... probably 20%?

my FD has NO TINT, like wtf. How's that happen. so it's getting tinted in the spring.

And I wonder if they can redo the factory gold tint on my 10AE, it's got some scratches in it now.

I went for about 1.5 years on too dark tint.

I was warned then about it by a local cop, but no ticket.

Been about another 6 months since then, no problems.

just lower your window when you see a cop.....let him see you and see if you fit any profiles.........

So far, so good

It's getting cold, but I still lower the windows when I see one.
