He's from Georgia, so perhaps not. Different laws down there.

Your sig for that would have been better suited thusly:

**UPDATE** Ok after weeks of contemplation, i finally gave in

since the last post i got pulled over another 2 times. I swear the cops are targeting my Z for some reason

I went with 35% all around; even though thats a 15 percent increase in transmittable light, I still feel like im driving a fishbowl!

I still haven't had a single issue with my plate. However, there was a 2 year grace period where I didn't get in trouble for my tint either. So it's just a matter of time.

i think its all by chance, wrong place at the wrong time. keep the tints, especially if you have aftermarket head units in your car, you need tints so people cant see what you have inside your car with the intentions of breaking into it, **** some people even steal airbags and sell them for thousands

How much did tinting the Z cost NY/NJ people?
I remember getting my old buick tinted for $150 (4 windows + rear)... and I guess fewer windows in the Z means it should be cheaper?

Gaiiden · 01-07-2010, 10:06 PM

It'll depend on where you go, but mine was $160 total (tax + labor). Your huge rear hatch window makes up for the smaller "rear" windows.

CrownR426 · 01-07-2010, 11:00 PM

There's a shop in my town that charges 200

Gaiiden · 01-09-2010, 12:02 AM

Oh I should prob mention the name: East Coast Tinting, in (ironically enough, given my troubles) Freehold at the intersection of 79 and 537. 732-294-0146

dudafunk · 01-13-2010, 10:32 AM

Got my tints on the red Z... 20% back and legal 30 or was it 35% side. 20% on the rear hatch too.

Paid $175 cash, no tax, in Centereach NY.

75% is the legal limit in NYS buddy. but they shouldn't bother u for that combo

AK370Z · 01-20-2010, 07:50 PM

jbuzz · 04-02-2010, 09:14 AM
