As most of you know I just removed my 15% tint for a violation. So when it warms up i am getting legal 35% put back on the fronts. My question is should I have him go over the rest of the windows with 35% too. I'm trying to make the interior as dark as possible while being legal. (All rear windows can be painted black according to Mo law) Or do you think that would look stupid? Just throwing some ideas around.

Should have rolled them down going by a cop!

 

If you go 35% on the fronts, it would look best to leave the backs alone. It looks a bit funny when the front is too much lighter than the back. That sucks that you got the ticket, but does the ticket require the removal also. If not i would just pay the fine and be careful not to get caught again.

 

My set up is in my gallery. 35 front windshield, 20 front sides and 5 backs

 

The ticket did not require removal, but I figure with the price of another ticket, I can just get it fixed right. I have a summer internship with a big employer, and I don't need any other offenses on my record for them to question me about. Although I wouldn't think window tint would be a serious offense.

I have 20% on the front and two layers of 5% on the sides, rear, and front brow. I like it so dark you can't see in. Thats just my taste tho.

 

That is what I did and to be honest I could have gone darker on the rears. Fronts @ 50% is legal where I live and I think I have 35%. I really want to tint the windsheild but the hassle of the inspection sticker going on and off has kept me away from that. I dont think it looks funny at all, but everyone has their own taste.

My sig picture is without tint. The trailer picture is the only one with tint.

 

I would just go with the 35% on the sides and call it a day.

I have 20% on the side windows on my 04, 50% is legal in WI, and I have been lucky enough not to have gotten caught yet. My work truck has 15% on the side windows and rear on both the truck and topper. It is a HUGE PITA trying to hook up to a trailer especially at night with that dark of tint, and its almost as hard even without the topper on.

 

No I would not paint the rear windows black.

i have 35% on my front door windows and 35% over my factory tint on the rear side windows. This is the same setup i had on my explorer. I think it looks fantastic and wouldnt do it any other way!!!!!!! Go for it. You will be very happy.

 

Dude down here in Texas your front windows cant be darker than 20%. Will I took my BMW to go get inspected and the stupid mechanic was going to pass it, but then he tested my window tint on the front doors and he saw that they were 12. So what does SHERLOCK do? He finds a loose piece of the tint on both sides of the corner windows and peels it off so he can pass me and he can get his $$$. I was pissed . then he still failed me cuz he couldn't take all the tint off. So he tried to charge me. So i left but before i did I threw a brick threw the windshield of his pretty trans am

 

I have 8% all around and an extra layer of 5% over the 8% on my back window.The cops here in FL don't mess with you unless you're driving like an idiot or have mirrored tint!

 

Your truck looks great. Do you have any more pics directly side on in the sun so I can see the difference between the front and back windows? I'm afraid that the fronts will look light and the back will look too dark. Seems to look good on your truck.
