Why so butt-hurt, faggot? Tell you what...

Why don't you go back down to your room...errrr, I mean your parents' basement? Don't worry, Mommy will be down soon to smother your genitals with marshmallow fluff while Daddy plays hide the nine iron in your ass and watches you lick your own shit off the end of it. Then you can all watch, "Starsky and Hutch" together...

If you tint your windows, I will issue to you a summons for the violation.

Not if the windows are within the tolerated limits as outlined in the law you won't. Bring anything less than that into my courtroom? And I'LL take your badge then and there...and take them with prejudice. Nothing I hate more than stupid LEOs...learn the law you mopes! And try not to shoot anybody unnecessarily while doing your job...Christ.

We as public safety officers know what tint too dark for the highways in Virginia, and a Uniform Traffic Summons will be issued for each violation found.

The property can also be impounded if the officer fears for public safety.

Forget CA Tint, you want to go to TintFX next to Ted Britt Ford in Fairfax, City.

These guys are good and quick, they do this on an appointment basis and will get you in and out quickly.

As for tint levels, if you get the DMV Window Shading Waiver signed off by a Doctor, you are fine. You may get hassled from time to time, but the registration will have "Sun shading" printed on the lower part of the registration.

I do a lot of distance driving and the my skin is super sensitive to the sun. I even have the windshield tinted because I would fry if I did not have long sleeves.

Know the law and enforce the law, Friendly. Do NOT waste the court's time with improperly enforced codes. When it comes to tinted windows it's a percentage of visible light. Anything beyond the stated percentage requires a letter from a licensed opthamologist related to a diagnosed optical condition or malady.

Not sure why you are saying forget California tint. He does an excellent job and doesn't use precut film that leaves a huge gap between the edge of your windows and where the tint begins. He'll also take appointments.. I don't know what tint shop wouldn't/doesn't operate that way.

Somes states, like Arizona, allow darker tints (up to 50%) for side and rear windows. You'd be real uncomfortable without it. If I have AZ license and tags, I guess I'm OK to visit Virginia.

Only for 30 days. Under the motor vehicle laws of Virginia, any vehicle owned by non-military personnel which is operated and or parked on public property in the Commonwealth of Virginia for more than 30 days must be registered, safety inspected and emissions tested or it will be towed to an impound lot. Storage and release fees will apply.

I had one car tinted at CA Tint, not real happy with the outcome. A lot of small bubbles behind the tint and the guy used talc powder that some ended up under the tint. Also a bit expensive for the quality and it took this guy a long time to get the car done.

Had other work done at TintFX and they do much better quality work, throw 2-3 guys on the car and it is in and out much faster. No bubbles or talc powder.

I want to tint my black car since the black leather interior gets hot in summer- to LEGAL VA tint-----


...but with the overzealous police around Ffx, I am afraid I will get pulled over for it anyway and have to take the day off to go to court, fight it, etc etc to get dismissed. Which wastes my time and money having to come to court with it.

THey might also use your "too dark tint" as probable cause to search the rest of your vehicle. Seen it happen.

...if I were a minority, i would advise AGAINST tinting the windows if one is in a regular car (honda, ford, etc). You are wayyyyyy more likely to get pulled over.

In a BMW, audi, etc less likely as the cops will assume you will have money to fight it if you can afford that car.

If you get your car windows tinted within the VA limits for operators without a Medical Waiver, while you could get pulled over for tinted windows, the police typically carry a tint meter that they slip over the top of the window to measure the tint percentage.

If you are within the legal limits, they cannot and should not ticket you.

BUT, if you seem to be giving them a reason to target you, they may find something else to hassle and ticket you for.

Do not be a jack ass if you are pulled over, you will have fewer issues with the LEO.

Remember there was just recently a District Attorney or some other high ranking black lady that got pulled over for no reason at all? I think this happened n the east coast in the past 3 months.

Relates to this, the cop did not have a tint meter on him at all, declared it "illegal" and was about to write her a summons but once he found out who she was (a high-ranking government official) he backed off. Will try to locate the article for a link today. I do recall it was an issue with her "No tag" plates that she had which were LEGAL to have (they issue to some government employees to keep their anonymity).

A reason such as being black or hispanic being in a rich white neighborhood?

Ok, so now you are assuming "We deserve it". I thought we had free speech, we cannot be arrested for calling an asshole an asshole. IF the name fits....

What a great story! To sum up, you have a hazy memory of something that maybe kinda happened, and it might have maybe kinda happened somewhere around here.

I have had full 35% tint on all my cars and have never been bothered, the only illegal part is my two front windows which are supposed to be 50%. Just don't go darker than 35% and you will be fine. You can probably get away with a 70% on the windshield if you wanted.
