BS, they can write you up as many times as they want, they give you a grace period after the first ticket to get it taken off though.....

jttegx has a spectacular aura aboutjttegx has a spectacular aura about



when i got my windows tinted ... they said its illegal to tint the front nowadays but i also think thats bs. but on the law charts it says: 70% tint on front and any on back as of 1999. not sure if they still follow those percentages but my windows are tinted 94% back, 65% front n had no trouble so far. but what your frend tellin u is bs.. ask him/her whered the **** they got that info from.

btw: mirror/silver/chrome/any colored tint is ILLEGAL no matter what in california due to reflective ness. (mentioning becuz u didnt mention what kinda tint u have.)

When i got ticketed it was a $75 fine. No fix it ticket, just a fine and i left my tint on. It must depend on the police officer or the court house.

nice! mine is 15% tint (I dont care if it's illegal).. i think.. hehe.. as far as i know.. second from the darkest front and rear and planning to get the darkest for my windshield... they didn't put a tint on windshield because it was just for free LOL

How much did you guys get your tint for? I have hook up with the tint.. I could give you up to $50 off.. depends on their mood LOL!

Well, their price is already low and they can still give you discount if i tell them... if anybody around santa clara or san jose.. just let me know :-) they can do any shade/color of tint.. from titanium to black...
