I'm sure. You can have film with UV protection on it, but it can not have a tint.

CA Vehicle Code 26708(2) A person shall not drive any motor vehicle with any object or material placed, displayed, installed, affixed, or applied in or upon the vehicle that obstructs or reduces the driver's clear view through the windshield or side windows.

There's still that psychological effect of the bright light which makes it "seem" like it's hot but it's not.

I currently have 3M Crystalline in 40% and it still "seems" hot. But when I get into my non-tinted back up car...it makes a world of difference.

Does not fly in California. Other states yes.

So, I've extended my court date.
I have to pay my bail and correct my violation by March.
I have purchased the Grimm speed relocater kit.
I'm going to take off the tint and put it back on. My car isn't sexy without tint!! Hahaha

Thank you guys for all your input and advice! You are greatly appreciated!

I have strong tint on the back window and the rear side windows and it looks great from any angle but direct side view...

Guess it would be stupid to suggest going with legal tint, but I am going to anyway.Limo tint is just asking to get pulled over imo.

My brother purchased a car out of state (on the east coast) with limi tint. He got pulled over right as he crossed the state line into Gerorgia. They made him pull the tint off the drivers window right there on the side of the road before they let him leave with the fixit ticket so..... It could be worse.

this is what i did when i had fix-it no front plate.. i taped my front plate to the bumper (w/ doubled sided painter tape).. i parked the car facing the station, they zoomed into the camera and see that i have plate on and signed it off.. i walk out to my car and the plate was hanging by the last piece of tape .. i grabbed it real quick and just drove off hahahha

so check how your local pd is.. put on your plate properly and see if the guy will go out and check for your vin, and say u need more time to remove tints... if they don't check for vin, then switch with someone w/ no tint.. problems solved

All of you that recommended this are asking for trouble? Why risk to get yourself buried even more over something so petty. And not only that, possibly the owner of the vehicle you are "borrowing" as well.

This is quite possibly the dumbest thing I've ever read as a solution to a fix-it ticket problem.

it was pretty dumb, i agree.. i could at least zip tied it.. i'm laughing at it right now haha.. but in my defense, i had no free time and it was the last day to get it signed..

[andrealynn.BRZ]

so the verdict!!! I finally found the time to get it taken care of! LOL i know right? I got my ticket in November 2014 and now its March 2015! LOL!! But look how naked my car is!

just in case you forgot, i got a ticket for no front plate and limo tint windows.


FYI.. im going back tomorrow to get my tint put back on and i might take off the front license plate. I dont like that giant hole behind the re-locator kit !
