ok so i know this is the subwoofer section but i really need some advice on tint. i have 30% right now but dont really like it and the state law is 35% but i dont think cops really care. i really want to black out all my windows in 5% tint or 15% on front 2 windows and 5% on all the others. i just wanted to know if anyone has 5% and if they have ever gotten pulled over with it??? also, is it impossible to see out of at night and in the rain? do you think i should get the all 5% or the 15%/5% combo? please let me know and sorry for posting this in the subwoofer section i just really need some advice.
i got 5% on my tC and it looks great. its not difficult to see out of or anything. ive had it for about 6 months and have had cops pull up next to me, look at my car and dont even bother and 5% is illegal in VA.
iv got 15% on mine becasue i do tons of night driving and personally i wouldnt want any darker on my front windows even in the day looking in they are dark and hard to see into.
so its not hard to see out of at all yanksfan? how hard is it to see out your 15% mat dope? im still really confused, cuz i really want 5 but dont want to wreck cuz i cant see or get pulled over!
in VA, they were "cracking down on illegally tinted windows" and were planning to pull over everyone who hda them. i drove everyday about 1 hr and passed cops and saw many cops next to me. never got pulled over. is it difficult, not really, but yea its harder to look out of then no tint, u just gotta be more aware when your drving. just make sure u know your cars limits and youll be straight. hope that cleared it up
but again, dont wanna scare i out of it but my boy has got 5% as well on a blue BMW 325i and its sick as sh_t. hes been pulled over a good 6-7 times in the course of 2-3 yrs. just gotta be lucky i guess. but i strongly encourage to get them tinted, it adds more "flavor"to your car and makes it look better, couldnt think of a better word to use there curious tho, what car u got?
yeah thanks man. and isnt VA's legal limit like 70%, i know PA's is. ive seen alot of cars ride here in TN with it. i even saw a bmw with the front windshield tinted 5%!!! ridiculous. anyways, that clears it up cuz i really want 5. i can always roll down the windows lol. i got a not white but like creme color car so its gonna look sweet. plus with my chrome 18s and in dash dvd player itll make it pop. oh and by the way, will my screen be visible glowing at night thru the windows? hope so lol. thats for the hatas lol. thanks man
I'd leave the 30 and just do 5 on the rear windows if your really that concerned... 1 ticket is all it will take you to change your mind so why risk it for something like tint
haha, yea the legal limit here is 50% up front and 35% everywhere else. yea tats gonna look real tight, itll go real well together. as for the screen, if they look close enough, they will see it, they wont be able to just look over and be like hey, that dude has got a screen in there. they look hard enough and they can see it. 5% is pretty dark and difficult to see but its possible to see in, if ur close enough.
