SO, i live in jersey. yeah the tint laws suck here. but im considering on getting my car tinted soon. i was thinking 35% on the rear, and 50% on the front and back passenger windows. i have graphite interior so i believe the 50% will look a little darker. any opinions on what i should do?

 

You'll have to take off the tint on the doors every time you get an inspection.

 

i thought they changed it in nj so that its only emissions now?

 

You don't have any mechanic friends? 50 % is really light.

 

yeha i know 50% is light, but i just dont want to be hassled by cops. would i get stopped for having 35% all around?

 

I have 5% on back windshield and 20's on the 2 little windows and on the front windows and thinking about getting 35% on the front windshield because I NEVER get hassled. I would never get 50% dude.. your going to regret wasting your money so much in the future trust me, I regret getting 20's.. I wish I got like 5's or 10's in the front

 

go 35%...i have the 3M film and i havent had any problems to date with law enforcement...

my friend has 20% on the versa though and hes having a lot of problem with cops...

 

I live in NY, but a good friend of mine lives in NJ and he has 35% tint on the G35. He is forced to remove the tint on the door windows to pass the state inspection. From what he told me, NJ vehicles can only be inspected by a state inspection station, not local garages.

He still likes his tint, so he has it redone after every inspection.

 

^^^ apparently it was just changed this past june... now you do not have to get tints removed in NJ for inspection...

I had my car inspected in April so I had to get my tints removed

 

Well, if that's true then my G35 buddy peeled off his tint for no reason. He just had his car inspection in November. He hasn't had the tint put back on yet.

What makes you think they changed the inspection rules?

And as far as I know, it is still 100% illegal to have any tint installed on the front side windows in NJ. But that's another issue entirely....

 

Oh those 77$ fines ...in those bs townships....memories.....

 

The new inspection rules as of I believe August 2010, emissions only! They are no longer inspecting tint, tires, alignment, lights. Tinting on the fronts still illegal and if you get pulled over they can still write you a ticket for it. That being said, I have 35% all around and haven't gotten stopped once.

 

Yep, that's what I heard to. They check for light brakes I think and the exhaust and that's it I believe, maybe other problems as well which is why I'm going to get my front windowshield tinted aswell.

 

50% are very light tint. like you have no tint with 50%. ( even the Factory windows tint are 70%. i believe, some one ple correct me if i am wrong.)
go 35% all around n you wont regret it.

 

thanks so much! i will deff be getting 35% all around, i found a tint shop in newark that does it for $100
