Default Windshield Tint
Sidez asked me to post a couple of picture of my SRT showing my tint job.

I was running with 5% all around and 40% on the windshield - I got busted for the tint but the shop did such a great job that the officer could not find the edge of the tint on the windshield - so I stripped the tint off the door windows and went to the police department to get the fix-it ticket signed off. That officer also said - my windshield is tinted - but he could not find the edge so I told him it was factory glass. He informed me I could have any darkness of glass on any window of my car.

The CA law only prohibits "Film Covering" permanent or removable, but not dark glass. I am on the hunt for replacement windows for the sides that are factory dark (5% - 15%) so I can be legal.

With these pictures I have 5% on the rear and small side glass, 15% on the doors and 40% on the windshield.

It can be pretty dark at night (with no street lights) thru the door windows, but I have no problems seeing thru the windshield at night when I am out of the city.

BTW - the HP also nailed me for no plates but I was still waiting for the DMV to deliver my personalized plates. When the plates arrived I just velcro’ed the front plate to the bumper and when in for an inspection - no problemo.

Funny part was I put it on in the parking lot and as I walked into the front office I though - I bet they saw me on the surveillance camera - I looked at the monitor and the camera showed my car but not past the front wheel. Talk about funny.
