These are not street legal right? esp. in SoCal? How much is it to get fined if u were pulled over?

 

i know quite a few people that have gotten busted for these. cops look out for tinted tails more than window tint thats for sure.

 

screw the window tint and the front plate.

I HATE IT

 

Depends on the cop. Could be a fix it ticket that costs $10...or it could be non-correctable/moving violation which could be a couple hundred.

 

it depends how dark you get it, i havent had any trouble with my tinted tail lights. im pretty sure as long as the brake light is clearly visible you have a pretty good chance of getting away without a ticket

but if you get one, its a fix it ticket, and you get the option of just paying a fine

the fine is anywhere from $150-$200

but you shouldnt have a problem unless you have like a crazy loud exhaust, no front plate or something that says HEY LOOK AT ME!

 

fix it ticket $10, Fine $150-$200****************

 

let me put it to you this way...

when i got my fix it ticket for having no front plate, the cop was nice enough to add illegal front window tint the ticket even though that wasnt the first reason he pulled me over.

so if you have other mods done to your car, you could assume you will get hit for those too if you get pulled over. all im saying is that out of all the illegal stuff ive seen here in cali:

-ricer loud exhausts
-5% tint on front windows
-no front plate
-slammed to the ground
-window stickers
-blue turn signals

tinted tails IN MY OWN EXPERIENCE have attracted the most attention from the fuzz.

 

man the cop that pulled my bro over first came for front plate, then front windows, then ALMOST marked him for exhaust and springs also

 

when tinting the tail lights, its now all about how much red goes through your tint... its also because there is a reflective plastic inside the housing... the reason they dont like seeing tinted tail lights is because when light shines onto your tinted tail lights, it might have that reflective plastic shining back, whoever is behind you. this is for your own good. if you were to tint them, tint them as light as possible so that the reflective plastic still is doing its job.

 

QUICK QUESTION EVERYONE I GOT A TICKET FROM CHP AND U KNOW HOW THEY ARE HE GAVE ME A NON CORRECTABLE TICKET FOR MY TINT IVE GOTTEN A TINT TICKET B4 SO HOW MUCH IS DA FINE AND CAN YOU FIGHT THAT?? ANY SUGGESTIONS ANYONE??

 

^ turn off CAPS lock pls. oh and try to use the period. its right under the letter L.

as for your non correctable ticket, take off your tint, go to the sheriffs office and talk to them. show them your ticket and tell them that its only a tint ticket and you have taken it off. if not, then go to court and show them a before and after picture.
