Question regarding MD inspection and window tint.

Do I pay for the inspection, even if it fails? I've never had to get a car inspected before.

I'm not sure how that works out. I believe you can ask the MVA for an extension, but you will probably have to pay for the inspection, and if it fails, they will give you a list of items that have to be corrected in order to pass.

When I paid for inspection on my Civic and it failed because of the 5% tint, I just peeled it off and went back to the place and they passed me on the spot - no additional charges. After I moved over my title and everything from CA to MD I got it re-tinted to MD legal 35%.

What he said. You might get a pass for your tint at some shady garage doing the inspection. Some look the other way if a $20 magically fall off your wallet and on your seat
