    Fair enough. I think im going to check out what different tints look like today. If anyone has pictures of their 20-35% tints and wants to upload them so I can jerk off....I mean compare them that would be much appreciated.

    I left the factory smoke in the back and did 20% front and it's perfect. If I didn't have a cap, I'd put 50% on the rear windows to bring it down to around 15%.

    Not the best pic but here's 20% front, factory rear.

    I might just do 20-35 up front and call it a day. Idk though cause I dont want people to be able to easily see in the back when I am carrying shit around.

    or you could just put dick stickers all over the rear windows. Nobody would want to see what is back there.

    I say just do a decent amount under virginia's max because, 1. cops can be jerks, 2. whatever place you go to for inspections can be jerks. When I had my Charger, they tried to tell me that one window failed (it looked identical to the other one) it was bullshit, i had to go some sketch place to get it to pass.

    I roll my front windows down, then disconnect the window switch. nothing in safety says windows have to work.

    also, cops can be dicks, but they only tend to be dicks if you are already messing up and also being a dick.

    you right.
    I mean I can just go to where everyone else with tints goes for inspection. As for cops I think a cop is going to be a dick regardless.

    30ish front and 20ish rear(stock). I’d probably go 20 front if I did it again
