Well I recently(last wednesday) got my windows tinted, and on friday this stupid cop pulled me over on my school parking lot for it. I got 20% all around. Anyways, he said that I can not have it that dark, and if I get pulled over again i'm going to get a ticket. I told him I would get it fixed to 35 in the front, but the tinting place will not fix it unless I pay them 70 bucks. I just payed 190 for it 1 week ago, and I called the owner of the shop and he said bring it in wednesday morning, I did and he happedn to be out of town. So I go pick my car up and it's not fixed, and this other guy in there tells me they are going to charge me for it. So I just left. My father advises I just not worry about it and when I goto school just keep my windows rolled down till I park, then when I leave roll em down. Other cops that my friend knows(he works at the police dept.) says they don't normally pull people over for just tint, rather bring it up if they do get stopped. My tint only looks dark when you are standing about 5 feet back and the sun is shining right on it otherwise you can see straight through it no problem. When he pulled me over i rolled all my windows down and he was being rude to me about it. Since he pulled me over in the parking lot, from what I understand, isn't legal to do so. I talked with my School Resource Officer about it and he gave me the guys supervisor. I call his supervisor last night, and left him a msg but he still has not returned my call. So my options are, keep it and wait till I get pulled over for something else(this was the first time ever getting pulled over), try talking my doctor into writing something that says I have sensitive eyes, or strip it and pay 70 bucks(which I really do not want to do). Anyone know the cost of a ticket would be, Or if there is a way to get a letter or something saying it's ok to have my tint? I just need some suggestions.
Thanks a lot!
mike
P.S. Sorry so long
