Tinted Tails/Heads Questions

Snakes709 · 03-21-2010, 11:34 AM

I got 5% window tint, tail lights tinted really dark and blacked out headlights with 8000K HID's. Never been pulled over. I thought i was going to be pulled over the other day, cuz a cop was right on my rear bumper. And then i took a second look in my mirror and his lights were on, then when a lane opened up to my left he flew past me. Anyways heres pics of mine.

OK,

In the state of GA it is Illegal to tint the front headlights. The rear taillights can be tinted as long as they are visible at 300-500 ft in any light condition... I have been pulled over 3-4 times by the same cop

. Its to the point of harassment if he pulls me over again. He knows my tint is legal and I have the darkest tint on the boards:

Srry got a lil pic happy

Second, does anyone have any forum or google links to any our of cars with headlight tint, or tailight tint for that matter, but spec. headlight tint.

Thanks

Im getting mine re-done right now because I couldn't even see my headlights on the back of the car in front of me lolol. It look like I have Demon eyes when I turn on the headlights because the tint is so dark. I went by a cop last night and this morning and I didnt get pulled over and I am in Virginia! I am only making them lighter because I cant see at night.

I have the tails on my expedition tinted as well. I recently got pulled over by Georgia State Trooper for window tint and because the license plate frame obstructed the name of the county (total BS stop).

Windows tested legal and he didn't even mention the tail lights. I think if you get them done professionally so they look like they came that way, you will be fine.

Mine are also Dark and have had no problems they are very bright despite the tint.These are JDM clear taillights.

These where sprayed @ my body shop by the painters.

Here is mine. and they are very dark as well, i have only had cops tell me how good my car looks. Also a pic of my headlights painted

The only issue I've ever had was when I moved from VA to MD and then had to get my Z to pass the state safety inspection. Otherwise, no problems to date in MD.
