My black pix was sarcasim, but no sarcasm was intended here. If he has a valid vision problem that warrants such dark tinting of the front windshield, then his driving at night is certainly dangerous to both him and others. If it’s another one of those “I’ll get my doctor to write a fake note to justify my illegal tints” then that is plain wrong. Frankly, I am sort of hoping the first premise is true and that he will take my advice and not drive at night until something can be done to improve his vision.

BTW, I doubt anyone can see to the side at night with 15% on the side windows without a problem.

Firstly, it is a legit eye condition so keep your pants on ...

Secondly, I do see that there may be some danger in driving at night, but who are you to tell me to be a day driver lol, I dont recal you winning the Indy 500. I can see perfectly at night without a doubt but I bet I should check with you before I make any assumptions. I said I have a problem with my eyes being sensative to sunlight, I never said I need glasses lol. I have perfect vision so I hope those answer your comments

Thirdly, Picturessss ...






Sorry for the bad quality they where taken with my iPhone

take some while driving on the street. the headlight's lights are bouncing off the walls so there would be more light entering the cabin.

JK.. but I do have symptoms of a retina tear which might lead to be getting a doctors note for tints but certainly not limo tints.

Well, I’ll tell you who I am. I am the guy who might loose his life being hit at night by a driver who didn’t see me. I’m the guy who may lose his family for the same reason. I’m the guy whose insurance rates will go up due to an increased accident rate. And I’m the guy who doesn’t understand that in spite of your admission that that there may be some danger in driving at night, you still insist you can see perfectly at night.

But actually a solution is at hand. If it’s just a problem of your eyes being sensitive to sunlight, take the 20% off your windshield; wear suitable sunglasses during the day and none at night. This seems to be a reasonable and safe approach that others on the road may appreciate. Yes, you loose the “coolness” of this extreme mod, but perhaps a more seasoned attitude is something you should consider, if not for us but for yourself.

How immature and self-centered. I hope you grow up before you kill or injure someone (other than yourself: I care as little about you as you seem to care about everyone else).

I dont know why you seem to think I should care about someone like yourself before I care about myself. I dont know you and I dont want to. But im glad you think im immature and self-centered maybe next time you wont read my threads. I posted along with pictures to show people what it looks like, I didnt really ask for you or anyone else's negative opinion, but by all means think what you'd like

why would you tint the front windshield, i don't seem to understand this at all. It may look cool, but it's dangerous. I've never seen a tinted front windshield ever in person.


and hey, this is a public forum, we can read your thread if we want to. Stop posting if you don't like to hear negative comments.

I dont care about your negative comments, by all means keep them comming. Just know that regardless of what you guys say it isnt gona make me take it off. It is legal and legit so unless its your car where talking about I dont think I will be taking it off anytime soon. Regardless of what you guys think! I just posted it so those who where interested could post, but instead some of you are straying from the topic and turning into an ethical/non ethical health measure/risk. PLEASE lol its a car forum go bitch somewhere else lol

so you got a doctor's note explaining your eye problem (sensitive to light??) to make it legit.
That doesn't seem right, doctor note to break the law. If thats how it works down there, at least if you run someone over, you could get a doctor's note saying that you are out of your mind during that moment.

Like I said before, if you where reading the whole thread, its a legit doctors note attached to the form from the state which enables a restriction on your license. It took one month for the state to approve and have it place on my drivers license. My eye doctor had me take tests and checked my eyes for light sensitivity so if thats not legit than idk what is.

because i read somewhere that someone just like you did the same thing and the court rejected the doctor's note.

In my Province you cannot tint the front windshield no matter what!!! no exceptions



hopefully it works out for you and no one gets hurt
