New tint no pic just have a ?

Just had my windows tinted yesterday at my friends shop when i dropped it off he wasn't there yet. legally in VA your not supposed to tint the whole back window over the third brake light but I do it on all my cars. I was in a rush and just dropped the car off because they already knew how dark I wanted it when I went to pick it up the third brake light is cut out. I said something and he said he will redo it and I said I will pay for the tint on the back window. Do you think I'm making a big deal about it I'm just **** about certain things and don't think it flows right. The car is black but has the real light tan interior so since right around the tail light is carpeted it sticks out like a sore thumb. I guess I'm convinced to re-do it just wanted your opinion.

if you didnt tell them wht to do then you should take it easy and ask for the favor to cover the whole thing. But yeah if it sticks out like that and looks ugly then get it done. I dont get my windows tinted anymore. 1) freakiin nyc cops, 2) i want people to see whose driving that hot CLK lol.

I looked at it a couple of times over the weekend Its not as bad as I thought . It looks clean and the way the back window slopes you can't notice till you roll up on it. I wasn't being a a*$ to them or anything I was going to pay for the glass to be redone if I fell like I still want it done today I will go after work. wow no tint in NJ that sucks I'm from NY but was to young to own a car out there thank god.

for inspection they just want to check your brakes, lights and other things for safety. Half these people that do inspections out here don't care about things like that my boys headlights and tails are smoked out for whatever reason but he's passed for 2 years
