dfw people/cops tint
dfw people/cops tint whats actualy legal, every shop i call tells me they wont do anything lower then 35...
last time i chekced 25% is legal, but no1 has it anymore
your window is like 2% with nothin on it so if you get 25%-2% then your illegal i understand that and the cops tester is 2-3% error...so 25 could read 20...
anyways now that i said that what is lega for sure? is it still 25? and does anyone know a good tint place? preferrably that has 25 at least 30!?

mine is 18 and when the cops tested it it hit 11% let me know if you need a tint guy i can set you up with mine he has done this on all my cars. but from my understanding it has to read higher than 25%
i dont understand why, as of about 9 months ago it was 25%...because i got pulled over when i had 20 on my car and cop said i failed by 6% he told me i had to be above 25 to be legal...

I was just at the tint shop two weekends ago and their chart said 25%. Which is nowhere near dark enough so I got the guy to put 5% on the front windows. Just got pulled over this morning and cop didnt say anything about it. I know its a 175 ticket though.
I've had 5% all around for well over a year now, never even been asked about it. I keep the T-Top shades in and my windows are up 90% of the time. I've had cops stare at me but they never do anything. No front plate, no cats, dumped exhaust, 5% tint... you think they'd be itching to pull me over.
well i guess it depends how bad the cops are in your city. 35% is the limit in texas but i think 20% looks perfect in my opinion, im thinking of getting it and just riding around with the windows down.
better get the right tint if you dont want to pay about $160...i got pulled over for my tint and got a damn ticket.. now i just drive around with no tint so i dont have to worry about anything
