My good friend has had problems with cops, pulled over twice, second time they said he had to get it removed and slapped him with a $100 fine.. It wasn't worth it to me, lucky for him he's a mechanic and didn't have to pay someone to take it off. Just to put it on, but still.

The local pork in MA is rancid and they are pulling any car over that has tint. They need to pad Sadtrick Duval's pocket indirectly.

Keep the front clean, tint the rest. And dont feed the politicians!!!

never been pulled over for anything.

35% all around. my car looks stock to the average person though so thats prob another reason why. If you car looks crazy modded youre bound to get pulled over, tints or not, they will find something to nab you with.

Yeah, if I were you I wouldn't do the tint on the front window, don't give them a reason to pull you over. Who knows one day you might have to drive home buzzed, the last thing you need is to get nabbed for a DUI because you had dark tints.

Word.

If you're in MA and have glasses, you can look into getting a window tint waiver, which allows you to tint everything EXCEPT your front windshield down to 5% and you won't get fined. But you will have to have the application mailed to you from the MA RMV and have a Medical Doctor sign it.

It's probably the same thing.

I'll look into it next time I go to the DMV for sure.

You're better off calling the main RMV in your area, I called boston and got it, when I brought it to a local RMV, they were like "wtf is this shit? Never heard of it."

Legit.

Hit them with something that they don't even know about. That is awesome.

In accordance with Connecticut State Law Title 14 Sec. 14-99g, the side and rear windows may be tinted to the point where at least 35% light transmitted can still be transmitted through the window as darkened, provided that the reflectivity does not exceed 27% reflectivity.
