What is the best tint to put on? How about color of tint, smoke or grey? I want a light tint, don't want the cops to pull me over much. I can do it myself. I saw companies who sell tint already die-cut to size. But which is the best brand? Thankyou ahead of time! Jeff D.

I hope you dont have trouble seeing at night. I have heard alot of people took theirs off after putting 35% on windshield. I personally would put 50% if I want tint, 35% is too dark at night. You will definitely get harassed for sure though, good luck.
PS, if you want to see better with it on. Try to swap factory with 6000K H.I.D. bulbs.

I seriously hope it doesn't bother you / inhibit your vision at night......
its like ur willing to trade off some safety at night with full visibility just for the good looks of a tinted windshield and with less visiblity......

Is there really any other reason than aesthetics that people do this? Seriously, why would someone put themselves thru that? Isn't it easier to get some expensive shades instead? I guess I just missed that one huh man?...

...I may get me one of those permits so I can tint my front side windows and not get ticketed
...front windshield tint is really asking for the cops, if anything as someone said before, you should have gone with 50% at most. You're going to be screwed at night and if you do get into an accident and they find out your eye sight note/permit was BS...can you say LAWSUIT
nothing against you, just stating the facts

I'm in the bay area and I have 50% fronts and removed front license plate. Many of my friends have removed front license plates and 20% all around, and none of us has ever been pulled over... so I guess it depends on your area

As long as you are gonna be ready to get tickets, then yes, it looks okay. I wouldn't do it though, I have a hard enough time driving at night already. And you REALLY need to look at that sticker placement, unless a hole was cut for that purpose or you are going to remove it anyways.

Not a cop...but that is SO asking for it, if I were the cop...I would tow it pronto....not even let you drive it five feet forward. And again....far from a cop....but man - tint on front windshield = trouble in several ways. Good luck with that.
As for the looks...ya...it looks pretty cool. Just not worth the trade offs IMO.

Looks good but I agree with the others. Around here, that would be a cop magnet. Start praying that some doctor will give you a prescription you can show the cops who are surely going to be pulling you over.

LOL..then dont call yourself an ahole! j/k! That gave me, and probably most others, the perception that you were doing it for the hell of it. By the way...it does look kool!

Hmmm even with a doctor's note I figure they'd write you a ticket and let the court sort it out. At least that's the vibe Ive always gotten from cops.

No, it was authorized by the NJ DMV, and therefore supercedes the NJ statutes.
