Default Tinted Tails/Heads Questions

Has anybody had any problems with the cops as far as tail light and headlight tint. I have a silver car and want to tint both for a more aggressive look.

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

one more thing, would appreciate if anyone was an ex cop or has asked a cop to get a general consensus of how they view tint on our cars. I am in law school so I know the liability issue and the law, and I know its not a good idea, but neither is tinting windows dark and everyone does it and its looked upon with ease.

AND DONT FORGET THE PICS LOL

cops dont worry much about the headlight and taillight tint here in vegas i think..window tinting 35% is legal tint and you can get away with 20%. just roll down your window if you ever get pull over...knock on wood..

I'm down in Naples, FL and I never had a problem with my tints. I have gotten a couple of speeding tickets and the cops never said anything about the tints on the lights.

GTR style are pretty sweet.

I had Brian (used to work at autospa on Pine Ridge) do mine. He had the same vinyl that Bat uses, so I didnt have to order and wait. Brian does good work, and is price are very fair. Send me a PM if you want his number.

Do you have your Roof and Fangs blacked out? I seen a sick White 370Z pulling off Shirley onto Pine Ridge, was that you?
