Got Limo all around

Well I have had limo in the rear and quarter windows and then light on the sides, well i decided i wanted darker, so now i got limo on the front sides too. I also purchased ticket insurance so when i finally get pulled over for it they will peel it and re tint it after i get the ticket signed off. I am also thinking of doing light on the windshield, what you all think about that?

why light? do limo there too, thats gangsta... haha... i saw this one hooked up brabus benz on the 101 with the front limo tinted.. i couldnt see inside through the windshield even when it was daytime. It was gangsta... i thought about doing the mirror tint on the front so that its just more shiny and harder to tell that its actually tinted...

how much was the "insurance"? for how long? didnt even know they had such deals

why would you tint the front windshield anyway? i'm surprised you got "insurance". most tint places just make you sign a waiver that says if you get pulled over, too bad, you can't pin the blame on us. plus, that means more money for them if they have to redo your tint job.

"why would you tint the front windshield anyway" for the same reason you tint all your other windows.

tinting the front windshield is asking for more trouble than spraypainting all your other windows black. especially if you're driving at night. even light tint makes it hard enough to see at night time.

eh not really.. its just when there isn't any light that makes it hard to see. But ya since you have your headlights on the road, it isnt that hard. either way, its not like he's plannin on doin 20% or anything probably more like 50-70%. if i had the money to pay for tickets, i'd probably do the front 30% or so

I had the windshield on my old truck tinted and i could see perfectly fine, never got harrased luckily, but yeah, i dont know if i am gonna do it to the VIC, but its looking mightly clean now.

WES: I got it done in San Dimas, by the Bonita Car Wash at TINT CITY, they were pretty cool. I got my first tint done in WALNUT by RICHs TINT SHOP at the Nogales Car Wash, he was cool and hooked it up sick.

Many places out here used to do that, but now its more common out here in LA and in OC for companies to offer this insurance/warranty. Im glad, cause i know most places out here charge about $10-20 a window to peel off the old, unless your not lazy unlike me and do it yourself, and then about what $30 to redo a window... So to pay the one time $30 was worth it to me. But after all like Dave said why tint your windows at all? Its all on preference, i like dat ish black! Bring on the fix it tickets, i'll pay my $10 and do it again like i have been with everything so far.

I hate reflective tint, especially when your driving behind a car that has that tint on. The sun just kills your eyes.
