Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
If you get it removed then they drop the ticket. I have gotten pulled over about 9 times for tint and have 3 tint tickets under my belt(I have "17%"). Paid 2 of them and got 1 droped. It sucks but now I hate riding in cars without it. With the tint I feel like I can do anything and noone can see me.

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
On my new spectra5 I had 15% put on all the back windows and 50% on the front two. Have not been pulled over but it could be consider a wagon. GO KIA

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
I've been thinking about getting my windows tinted also, but with chances of getting a ticket. I think I'll wait till I have more cash laying around  .

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
I have 20% in the front, 5% in the back, whenever I pick up radar or laser on the detector I roll them down. Got pulled over once and they commented on the back, but that's it. In Iowa they never even commented on the back windows. But I guess that's the risk I take for having them that way.

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
This shit scares me, its like a matter of time till i get pulled over, but if its not dark then it sucks.
I had 35% tint in my old integra and it was cool, but too see thru, my buddy has 20% on his mustang, but i think that 15% is what black cars should get, now i don't know. Fuck.

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
I wouldnt go any darker than 35% and I have a black car. It really looks darker than I thought it would.

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
Not much you can do but I feel for you. It's a lame F'ing law (that and front plates tick me off) and one of the reasons I hate this state's government. They need to start going threw all the current laws and cutting out the BS that oversteps what a government is here for instead of continue to come up with more crap. Next week at the elections I'm not voting for ANY incumbent's. Time to flush and start over.

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
This law is pretty lame.
But its also a safety one too.
*If your at the store, come out, and see a blacked out car right by you, you wouldn't mind it considering you would just think no ones in there. But KABAM! Windows rolled down with a glock pointin at you!*
I'd only go up to 35% If you go 50%, its not really worth it. 50% is like nothing.

LOL, that's pretty weak dude. Using that logic we should outlaw doors and walls as well.

Yeah, cops also get to shoot people, and speed when they have their sirens on, and have dogs bite people.
They get to do a lot of shit we don't, so just deal with it. It sucks, but saying "cops can do it, so we should be able to too" is about the weakest argument ever.

Re: Got Another Ticket...Window Tint
Here are a few old laws from the OLD MN days that are really dumb!
It is illegal to sleep naked.
All men driving motorcycles must wear shirts.
Oral sex is prohibited.
