Pulled over for TINT! yikes...
So I have had tint on for 4 months and got pulled over, the officer was a real ***** bag. I got a warning, must get it removed in 10 days. But while he was holding my license he cracked it in half.... 
I am just going to get the tint redone and now whenever the Z is being driven, expect to see my windows down all the time

Only if I was on good terms with one in my town. I know one that works for another station in the area but I don't think that'll work.

Yeah, PA is a tough state when it comes to tint laws because they don't actually allow tint other than 70% factory.
When I lived there, I had 5% on my car and drove with the windows down. However in the winter, it can be rather awkward.

I officially hate police officers who pull over people for tint... wtf they don't get **** for it hah.
I swear this one police officer has a nice medal or a trophy on his desk at the station saying I REMOVE TINT. #1

I have 20%
Been pulled over twice for speeding and they didnt even care about the tint, didnt care about the speeding either hahah
80 in 45-Warning
45 in 25- warning
Just gotta be nice and curteous ( car off, keys on dash, no sudden movements etc...
And a good driving record is a plus too

Not that I would ever do such a thing, but IF I had ever been stopped for tint and finally given a ticket because I had already been warned 3 previous times, I would simply take a picture of my car with the windows up, another with the windows down, then magically merge the two in photoshop so that the final picture I bring to court has the appearance of my tint being removed from my windows.
Not that I would ever do that of course, because it is lying to a judge and thus illegal. But, you know, had that ever happened to me, I know that I could do that, if I wanted, or something....
