Window tints

I'm going to get my windows tinted today and I'm debating if I want to get the front windows tinted as well. Has anyone had any issues with police giving you fix-it tickets? And how is the tint holding up since our windows roll up/down every time we open and close the doors? Thanks in advance and sorry if this isn't the right place for this thread.

I have had 0 problems from police on my tint whatsoever. I thought the tint looked better the same on all the windows so I went for it which puts my fronts below FL's legal limit. Also the tint has been durable and have had it on for the 6 months I have owned the car and I have had 0 problems with the repeated usage.

I had 20% tint on my WRX and 5% across the top of the windshield when I was in Alabama where the legal limit is 35% and never had any problems.

I moved to Iowa (law: no tint in front, unlimited behind driver) and got a ticket about a year later. But I live in a small town with no local police and we're often harassed by the county. Things like rolling through stop signs, driving 3mph over, etc. The same guy had given me a warning about a month before for speeding and didn't say a word about my tint then.
