Tinted Windows or no tint? Opinions?

Ok, for the people who live in states where you are allowed to have your whole car tinted, Im jelous.. For the rest of us, what do you do??

I have my car partially tinted right now. 1/4 windows and rear window. The front windows are illegal in NJ, you'll get pulled over every day, not worth the hassle.. Anyway, Sometimes I look at my car, and think it looks "Ghetto". I am thinking of taking all the tint off tommorrow... Any opinions?

fight every single ticket, roll down your windows half way and when u see them boys, roll them down the rest of the way quick lol. I have limo all the way around and 50% on the front + black interior+. You can not see in my car...If you have someone on the force that can you give some sort of id/pba card that helps ALOT for repeats because they just wont waste their time.
P.S. Be aware you are breaking the law. If you run into the same cop on multiple occasions he will be very upset with you...You do not want certain cops to take a liking to you.

You live in Jersey, why is your car so dark anyway? There are barely any street lights out there to see without tints, how do you do it?

The tinted windows in NJ are used as a "PC - probable cause" to pull someone over.There are so many cars with tinted windows in our state that for a cop its like "shooting fish in a barrel".I've been pulled over in my C43 only once by a local cop who couldn't figure out why my car "looked so dark".My front windshield is tinted 35% and my rear windows and back are 15% ,that with the black interior makes it extremely difficult to see inside.

Chicago cops have enough on their plate and don't bother you but the 'burbs are different. It's a money generator. They give you the option to remove them and show up to the courthouse to prove i,t or simply pay the fine which is what I do. It doesn't go on your record and you get to keep your tints. Get pulled over again, and pay another fine.
