Any problems with Tint?
This is going to be much like my Front Plate thread =) What tint are you guys running and have you been stopped because of it?
I myself am currently in the Bay Area, but make trips to to Sacramento and SoCal a few times a year. In the past I've had something like 15% in the rear and rear sides, 35% front sides, nothing on the front, and I've never been ticketed. I'd like to think the staggering of the tint may have helped me out, but I don't think staggering is going work as well on the new M4 since the front and rear side windows don't have much of a break between them. I'm thinking maybe something like 35% on sides and rear, you guys think this will work in our neck of the woods? |

What's so strange is I've had a black H2 truck with 15% all the way around, a black Range Rover Sport with 15% all the way around and my 550i had 35% all the way around and never once had an issue. I have a four door (stock) Civic that had 35% on the front sides and 15% on the rears and I got pulled over twice the first week I had it done. I believe they see the Civic as a ricer and unfortunately I've noticed the M3 gets similar looks from the cops.
My M3 now has 35% front and rear sides, 15% rear and 50% windshield. However.....I now have the magic get out of jail free card. CA Vehicle Code Section 26708 states that you can have 35% on the sides if a licensed Optometrist says you need it for your vision. So my advice is find a friendly Optometrist. And sorry mine was a one time thing. |
