Haha yeah, I got lucky with never getting pulled for my 15% on the sides. But any VA law dealing with driving or tint is horrible haha.

Edit: I'm on a 6 month probation starting tomorrow haha, one ticket within that time period that gives me a demerit point will result in license suspension. After the 6 month period, im on a 18 month control period where if I get a ticket within that time, I will be back on 6 month probation.. so it's like 2 years of having to be ticket proof..

Oh dayum, yea then is is probably best not to get your windshield tinted. Yea, VA state cops don't like tint! I have no problem in my town or at school.

CA tint law is anything % on the back sides and rear windown and 70% for the front side windows. 70% means your really cant legally tint them because they highest tint shops have is 50%. You should be okay with 35% though.

first two shots are a little cloudier, last one is sunny.

32% on front, 15% on rear and hatch
Tomball Tinters

I'm wishing now that I had 15% on the fronts too, everyone around has darker than me on the fronts, even my mom's Murano tinted by the dealer is darker (even though the sticker on it claims its >25% haha)

Yea, just cover the tire with newspaper or put index cards between the wheel and tire.
