window tint

[Aminue]

I just talked to a place about retinting my ttops n they won't do it because they hold the heat in and they would shatter from to much heat.

yea i talked to a tint shop called shades of gray over in pa and they said the same thing about the t tops.

i was also with a friend when we got pulled over. the cop actually made him peel the tint off right there on the roadside, or loose his inspection sticker, his choice.

i believe it is illegal for a cop to remove the inspection sticker from someones car

well, if it is a fake sticker/counterfeit we do remove them and use them as evidence. if its a legit sticker i would not remove it, but the perso could get a ticket for "modifying vehicle after inspection" though

i know this topic is old but my buddy has a 03 mustang gt and got 5% all the way around and got a ticket the first day. im most likely gonna go with 15%

Just know your probably going to be getting a few tickets down the road. Whether its 15% or 5%

[smoke_em94]

if u are tininting the front windows ur going to get pulled over no matter what so just do the 5%

[sweetbmxrider]

cause you can kinda see at night with 15%

i have 5% now and have had 15%, there is a noticable difference

[Chad]

im getting my car tinted wednesday, 20% on the sides and prob 5% on the back im still unsure if i want 5% or 20% on the rear window...

[smoke_em94]

do 5 in the back

[Chad]

ok thanks

[ar0ck]

5% on the hatch, sides & window strip. Ted & I did it ourselves so when it comes time for re-inspection it only cost $11 to do.

Well actually the NJ inspection is only emissions now, but will they fail you for tint?

i tinted my ttops myself about 4 or 5 years back and mine are still fine.

no, you said it yourself. emissions is not affected by tint.

have you heard about ceramic tint? my friend had it on his dodge truck and it looked pretty nice.



idk about the sides, but i plan on getting it done on the hatch (idk what percentage yet)

you can see a few pics of my car with the windows tinted there.

30% on the sides, 5 on the hatch

35%. I had 20% on my last car and I think I've grown out of the black window phase. 35 is a nice balance. I've been thinking of getting my windshield 35 too.
