I have a friend that has had a tint shop for over 20 years. I know many of his customers that have been ticketed by HP at night because they would not listen to him about how dark to go. The cost of a ticket plus the removal and reaplication of tint gets pretty costly! It doesn't matter what state you are in you CAN and will in time be ticketed.
We have all heard, "You Should Not Out Drive Your Headlights". Reduce that by 20% and... How fast do you want to go?

OK, before I get pi$$ed, lets discuss this.
How am I any 'less of a driver' because I chose to make a visual modification that in no way shape or form interferes with my driving or my driving ability. I installed HID lights because the stock headlights are garbage and I wanted better visibility. With the 'tint' on my lenses (which is actually a high grade vinyl made for lenses) I still have miles better visibility than stock and it 'looks cool'. I am trying not to take offense, but when someone makes a statement like that, especially in a car forum, it is difficult not to (and I have to think it was intended for me because I am the only one with vinyl overlays on my car and tinted windows). Please clarify how I am not a 'driver'????
