    Most of the more active DFW folks are in this forum. Some hang out in the Houston BS thread but I dont normally go in there unless I have been drinking. That reminds me. Time to check in on Houston.

    Just got back from Pro Tint in Plano. They did 15% on my rear window. Much nicer having it tinted now!

    It changed a while back.

    I also don't run front plates on all my cars. I also have a good relationship with many local pd and many other cities since I seem them every week. Not being a dick on the rode and military plates probably help some. And the funny misfire my car produces at idle has a cool factor that may help as well...

    I think you'd be fine doing 20-15%

    Not if u wanna pass inspection. The law in the front is 25% with a -2% grace area for manufacturer defects. I used to do state inspections and I attended the police academy :thumbsup:

    If the tint matches the rear of the vehicle, there will be no issue. Most tints of rear windows/glass are pretty dark. But if you are a douchebag and get limo tint, a strip across the top of the windshield, you wont pass inspection. The technicality in the law for plates is the manufacturer has to have a mount for the plate to go on, not drilling holes in a bumper without a designated plate area.
