Tint Fix it Ticket. what to do??
just got pulled over last night for having my front windows tinted.. i dont know what level the tint is because i bought my car with the tint on already.. what should i do now? remove the tint? or find someone who knows a cop and have them write it off? how can i tell that it is actually an illegal tint... the cop just looked at my windows and assummed it was too dark without testing it. dam.. i would hate to take off the front tint because it was a very expensive tint job from what i can tell from the receipts... WHAT SHOULD I DO?!

Your choice, get it signed off by a buddy cop, or just take it off.
In my jeep I have 20% on the front windows and 5% on all the backs.. about 2 years ago I got a ticket and I went to CHP with my fix it ticket with the windows down and the officer just looked out the window and signed it off.
Stoked!!
You could try.. But I think I just got lucky!

calm down, relax, chill out, sing the ticket your self, pay the 10 bucks at court, simple. Sound wrong but then again anything is wrong if you think about your self...

you either have a cop u know sign it off or you remove the tint,have any cop sign the ticket off once you remove the front tint and you gotta go to court and pay a fine for the fix-it ticket. idk how much it is now but wen it happened to me i had to pay $25 buks for it. if you get caught AGAIN with tints on the front passanger windows you'll probably pay way more.

Just take it off...especially if you have other mods, carry drugs, drive drunk, or like to do stupid **** when you drive. Wait, if you do everything after other mods, go ahead and leave it on
