Re: Got a ticket - Advice needed

The ticket for tint is actually $50 in MN, BUT there is a $83 surcharge which makes it $133, just their way of fucking you over. I was stopped numerous times for this same reason, I paid it the first few times (being stubborn), then I just took it all off (except my back window).

Even my neighbor who is a Hwy Patrol stopped me, gave me a warning, and said that he would give me a ticket next time. After that I just took it off, which I must say is a pain in the ass, even with the right tools.

Just pay it, the only way you are getting out of it is if you remove it all and bring your car down there and show them. Pictures might work but your change is a lot less with them. They are really cracking down on tint in MN, my buddy and I were just stopped in his 2008 1 ton Ford truck the other day, his tint was 35%, the cop was driving the other way and whipped around and got us. Crazy.
