Whoo-Hoo! I've got 30% (allows 70% light) all around!
The thing is...we can still get pulled over for the tint! It's not like Bacon has a device that measures tint....And how well does local Bacon know this law? Last time I got pulled-over the CHP was harassing me about having my windows rolled down (like it's illegal to drive with the windows rolled down!) and warned me that any tint on the front sides are "illegal."
So, can I print something out and keep it in my car? I doubt if I print out the website screen, it'll be credible enough to keep Bacon from writing me a ticket, right?

But they'll be busy [helping normal people] and you'll end up looking like burnt scrambled eggs.

I'm sorry, but I doubt very many of us sulk that people don't like us...
as for me working, dropping by your girls house while you do the ole 9-5 seems promising...
