you might want to google those charges, pretty sure you can find out the legality of the clear plate cover and tint-darkness.

regarding the front plate, just mount it and take a pic, show it to the judge, you should be fine.

on the plate cover, you might want to take it off, take a picture of it and also show it to the judge, I guess you didn't know even a clear regular plastic cover could be illigal.

That Licence Plate Cover Might Cost You $110 Ticket? - OurMidland.ca

regarding the tint....

Ontario limits amount of allowable window tint, cyclists rejoice - Windsor - CBC News


good luck man!!
I've known about this new tint law since the start of the year, it only applies to cars made after Jan. 1, 2017 as per the article, how any cop can tell the age of a car with one glance is bothersome and might get some of us Z owners pulled over just to confirm the age. My tint is 15% on sides and rear, sides are now illegal but my car was made in 2015.

Regardless OP, that really sucks, especially the clear plate charge, what BS, I know the law and don't have any plate covers on my cars but have never heard of anyone getting a charge for it.

Especially when the province charges you over $300 for personalized plates, but won't let you protect your investment on a low-slung car on the crap roads they make us drive on or on any car in the winter!

just some major bad luck, i wake up today and im still stunned after a bad nights sleep. you have no idea how much i hate the front plate lol..... 5 years no issues minus a couple of tickets for it that were dropped to $45 and now this.. its like atleast let me put the covers on them and it wont bug me as much to have the front plates on..... and i wonder how its going to look with 15 to 20% sides,%5 little triangle window and %5 rear.... would it look weird? or have it all 20% around or 15? ughhhhhhhhh...

at first i got paranoid, i was like wait so if this guy got me in my area will i run into him again...??? than i thought, i havent seen him in 10 years or more soooo??????? and its almost always the front plate missing that attracts them so if i put that on theyll leave me alone? but they always stare when they see me driving it even if it were to be all legal..... this whole thing sucks..
