So in some states it is not as cut and dry as is it legal and what percent. The darker on certain areas of the car, dictate the darkest limit on other sections.

i know for a fact in Tampa, you can have no darker than 15% tint.

none of the cops used to care how dark you had it until one night (not too long ago to my understanding...i heard this from maybe a 5th person down the monkey chain) that some car was ramming all the other cars on the street. the cops couldnt get the car to pull over...the cops opened fire on the car cause they couldnt see into it. when the car finally stopped, it was two 4 year old out on a joy ride and they stole their mothers or grandmothers car...

thats the story as i heard it (even the not sure part about whos car it was)...i never cared to look up the authenticity of the claim either...i just thought i would share..

apparently its cooled down a bit, but cops still supposedly pull people over for tint that they think is too dark.

i dunno...ive never had a problem...and i have 5 on my back, 10 all over...none on windshield

I dont know what is going on in your part of the country, but window tinting seems to be under attack here in the Atlanta area. I have done more retints making cars legal here in the last year than I have done in the past 3 years total. Maybe it is because all the depts are running out of money or are broke and are trying all they can do to generate revenue. Pretty soon the wont allow iwndow tinting at all at this pace...How will we hide electronics at that point?Anyone notice this in your part of the country?
