here are pictures of my gs tintted. 5% all the way around and 35% front windshield . And yes you can get pulled over for this out here in New Jersey, but so what!, as you can see i dont even drive around with a front plate so that the front stays clean.
Actually you can still see through the front windshield with 35% tint.... When you get pulled over for tint the cop dousnt even notice the front windshield is tintted because the rest of the car is so much darker.To him/her (the cop) the 5% on the sides and back is whats making the front look a little bit darker. If i get a ticket , ill pay it and just move on. "Now, I bet if my car was white I would have problems with the coppers"

the dark tint looks great. ive got 5% on my blue onyx pearl 430.. ive been tempted to do the front windshield with 20 or 35 for a while now but i get pulled over a lot as it is just because of the rest of the windows.. cops in upstate ny always opt to harrass people on the roads for absolute BS instead of sniffing around for some real crime. i seriously dont know how these guys go home feeling good about themselves after a days worth of "work" writing up tint and exhaust tickets and accomplishing ZERO to reduce the crime rate. oh well right, it is what it is. i dont have a front plate either and that gets me pulled over often as well... if you really dont care about the cops though, you should rip that registration or inspection out of your window and have the tint redone without cutting a big dumb square in it, it would look alot better with nothing in the window at all. hell if you're gonna commit, you gotta go all the way. just carry the paperwork in your glove box. everytime you get pulled over after you're done explaining your way out of the tinted front window you can go ahead and lie about how you JUST got the window replaced; had time to tint it, but didnt have time to put the new papers back up on there yet. im sure that'll work just fine. ha.

Hey UPSTATE,.......the tint shop I went to did not cut out a box for the inspection sticker,.......they took it off, put the tint on , and then placed it back on the window over the tint.

By the way I have been pulled over 3 times for speeding since i got the tint, as a matter of fact i got pulled over tonight for doing 58 in a 35, all three times i got no tickets and the cops didnt say anything about tint. Only one of the three cops said I can write you up some tickets for your car but I wont. And all three times I used a pba card, sad to say im out of them now, so it looks like ill be following the law untill i get some more

out of them? like you give them to the cop and he keeps it? strange. the pba/trooper family/get out of jail free cards we get around here are plastic like a credit card with the officers name on it that you're related to.
i cannot believe that you can see the sticker on your window THAT clearly through the tint, thats crazy i thought it would be way harder to see..
