Default Just got my windows tinted....

Just got the windows tinted on my 2012 Mazda 3 sport. I got 20% in rear windows and 35 on front two. What you guys think? The wing comes in this week.

Nice!!
But is that a Pa plate I see? If they are as strick as they used to be, I'd be keeping an eye on my rearview.
IIRC, the limit in Pa was something like 50% w/o a medical release.

depends on the area... some around here they don't bother ya much at all for tint, as long as they can see inside the car with their spot light.
While other areas, cough, bethlehem township, cough, are total duchebags

Yup PA tags. Although yesterday I drove right in front of a cop and was sitting in front of him sideways for at least a min or so at a light. He was able to look at me completely and when it was all done, I backed up so he could cross me to the other side of the street. So I think I am safe. Also I see people in my area with 20% all around. Also in MD saw tons of folks with20% all around including the front window which blew me away. So I think I am pretty safe. But at the same token, cops are cops. If they want to pick I don't think your safe any where. Lol

Yeah. It's the same everywhere. Get a bored small town cop and you're liable to get pulled over.
Get a big city cop with more on his mind and they will probably let you go... unless there's another reason to pull you over.

Here in Texas, Travis county/Austin area to be exact, the city and Sheriff's office cops are likely to leave you alone, for the most part.
BUT, go one county north to Williamson and those guys don't let anything go, and there are some big cities up there too.

As they say in Jaw-zee (that's New Jersey to the uninitiated,) "Ya' ne'va' know."

Looks good.

I had my 2 fronts on CX-5 done in 35% tint a couple weeks ago. (Rear tint comes from factory on SUVs and is close to 20%).
