i hear ya. i'm in florida right now and you NEED dark tint in front, imo, to deal with the heat. even with it it's still hot inside though i roll the windows down a little when i leave. anyway my question, what's the front tint limit in AZ?

^^ I think it is 25% for the front windows in AZ. I loved going to florida and not having to worry about driving on the highway. VA state cops hate window tint, I have been pulled over 3 times, 2 in the same day for window tint

yeah, florida has a lot of lax rules. i think to entice people to live here, though a lot of folk don't need an excuse. lol

yeah that's what i assume, but Miami isn't shy on shoot cops or any other crime so i didn't point that out. it can't be just about crime.

Cali's limit is super light too, but i never got pulled for my 50%. i mean it's still light enough to see in, but it's obviously illegal

If I lived in Florida i would defiantly have 5%, I am thankful we dont have emissions or anything like that where I am at. But, they do like to pullover the imports with exhausts.

Almost all new cars sold in AZ come with 35% lol. I had 20% in the front and 5% in the back on my 05 tC when i was out there and didn't have a problem until I moved back to NJ. Exactly the reason why I didn't bother with tint on the new tC.

I love it and don't want to have to remove it because of the dick cops in my town, especially since it hasn't even been on for a month.

I know the cops in Jersey atleast, put notes about why you were pulled over previously. It happend to me with a license plate cover. The 2nd time i was pulled over for it the cop mentioned the city i was in when i was first pulled over and asked why I hadnt removed it yet.
In jersey you can have any exhaust system you want as long as it does not remove/replace any cats on your car and is lower than 93 decibles.

False... Every state is different. Maybe in your state you can't be suspended for an exhaust violation, but in many others you can. In my state (MA) you can get your license suspended for just about any violation except parking tickets.
