Any tint on the front windows is illegal in NJ and you will fail. Plus there are pretty much no private places that will let you slide with that stuff anymore.

Not true. I had 35% put on my front windows of my car and went thru inspection no problem. You think all the cars you see on the road with tint failed inspection ? Think about it.

Just got to a private place and go in person and talk to the inspection guy... Show him your car and ask if he'll pass you. You might not get the answer your looking for your first couple times but I guarantee you find somewhere to do it with no problem. I'm switching over from Va plates to jersey and I have 20% on my fronts 5% rears on both my cars and I already have the inspection shop lined up!

i live in wayne, and have only gotten pulled over once with my car b/c i was speeding, , instead of giving me a speeding ticket he gave me a tint ticket,

only two places i have been pulled over for just for my tints or no front license plate is paramus and north haledon, both towns the cops are known for being jerks

just put the tints on when you get the car and you have 4 years before you have to take them off for inspection

i have had the car for 2 years,

my friend got pulled over for blowing through a red light in totowa new jersey, instead of giving him a ticket for the light he gave him a tint ticket, when he went to look online it said that he has to go to court for the ticket, has anyone heard of this happening to anyone and if so what happenend when they went to court

yes they make you goto court now.. i had a tint ticket in july.. supposedly the pig pulled me over for noise pollution..broad daylight, seriously wasn't even blasting my system.. but anyways gave me a tint ticket and had mandatory court..you can't get out of it. you just have to goto court and plead guilty and pay the fee. i guess they made it mandatory court now so it's more of a hassle getting ticketed for tints.

I got a ticket in Alabama for tint not to long after they passed the tint and it cost me $200.


After the initial time period after introduction of the law the police relaxed and I had then tinted my next car all the way around and never got pulled over again.

as for now. i'm not tinting anything. going to drive around as if i'm in a fish bowl letter the whole world check me out in my 08 NBP TLS AT
