I my have to get the front done slightly. Looks good. I wonder how much Texas would bother me about it. Anyone have windshield tint in a state where annual inspections are done?? I'm curious if they'd bounce you for it. I'm thinking no more than 50%, and 35% is most likely, with 5% on the back, 20% on the sides.

i was at a tint shop and i wanted to get front tint, the guy at the shop said it was a moving violation(im in CA), im just going to get a small 5% bar because if i just get a black strip i think it will cut down on visibility too much.

5% TINT so you can't see up in my window! It's definitely illegal but i've been pulled over various times and the cops haven't noticed. As long as your registration/inspection stickers are BEHIND the tint film you are A-OK! I don't need sunglasses during the day anymore!

im sorry but in going to have to disagree...
glass from factory comes in two types, tempered and laminated. All current cars have their windshields laminated for safety, that is why its so hard to break a windshield. You're door glass usually comes tempered. this makes the glass more easy to break... and when it does break it breaks in to small little round pieces.
