Great post, now we will all know who is running illegal tint, makes it easier to find you and get a ticket.
Well does not matter, everyone braggs about anything they do illegal to thier cars here, so what is noe more thread right ?
Tint, exhaust, reflectors, etc...

Actually technically I'm legal, seeing that I have documentation from an ophthalmologist regarding my light sensitivity and resulting migraines. But I'd be more than happy to shove that in the face of any cop who really has the time and the nerve to hunt me down over such a minor issue based on a random Internet posting anyway.
Edit: And who's bragging? The OP asked a question. We're answering. Get off your high horse, man.

how is he on a high horse?
I guess he could have said everyone "talks"... but then again who really cares.

Good call, maybe I meant get off his soap box :lol:. Either way, my point was, he comes in here talking trash and making assumptions for no reason. The OP asked a question, we're here answering the question. His post came off to me as more of an attack than any useful contribution to the thread, hence my response. But maybe it's just me.

This is what I meant by bragging, question was who has legal tint, not illegal, so really this does not belong here either, but you guys do what you want.
Hey I dont even have tint, but when I do, it will be legal.
BTW- I also have a eye doctors note about light sensitivity, and the DMV does not care, they said that's what sunglasses are for, tint cannot go past legal because of my condition, well that's in NC anyways. I was going to get tint last year and try to get at least 20% but I dont want to deal with the night vision problems just to have my car look cool.
The statement above supports why illegal tint is not worth it, but again wrong topic I know.
Sorry if my wording comes off as agressive, not what I meant, just giving some thought from the legal standpoint, I will admit when I was younger I had to have illegal tint, like everyone else, just to play along, but now that I'm 33, I dont see the thrill anymore of wondering if and when I will get pulled.

Fair enough. Just for the record, it is in Washington State law that you can have any darkness of tint as long as you have proof of an eye condition requiring it. Also, at 20%, I have almost no problems with night vision. However, I wouldn't go any darker for that reason. But with all that said, I do more or less agree with you. My personal reasons for tinting my windows darker than the legal limit had more to it than just looks and style, but I recognize I'm a more unusual case than most.
Anyway, I got the impression the OP was kind of just wanting to gauge what different levels of tint look like, so hopefully the couple pics posted in this thread help him out a little, even if they are of illegal tints.

5% tint put on top of 20% all around. Windshield at 35%

I will admit that looks badass, but how can you even remotely see at night?
Edit: Just saw your post after posting this, icspots. Since this forum lacks a post delete feature that I can use myself, feel free to delete my post if you feel it's necessary.
