Default front window tint

I noticed in some pics that guys have tinted the front glass. What percent should I get? I dont want my windows too dark, but Kevins looks perfect? Anyone have any visibility problems?

I called Ferdinand Porsche's grandaughter .... who I use to date... and asked her to go ahead and match my fronts with the rears, hey does that make my S more valuable? Any takers?

Angry Wife got a fix-it for front side windows tint today

A bit off topic, but it looks like the Kalifornia Highway Patrol are bored and desperate for income. My wife was pulled over for no front plate and the driver/front window tinting which is only 50% grade. We've had no plate and tint on her ML for almost 4 years and never had any problems. All of our autos have tinted driver/front passengers. She wasn't speeding or driving agressively. Just coming home from the mall with the kids. Our local city P.D. patrol our neighborhood frequently and are very agressive at pulling over speeders. Unfortunately, the city we live in is right next to an unicorporated area of L.A. County, so the CHiPs are responsible for that unincorporated stretch of road.

Just letting you guys lucky (or unlucky enough depending on how you look at it) to live in CA to be aware that somebody is actually enforcing the law - no matter how silly it may seem.

I think front-side window tint is a must for privacy, heat/UV, and looks - especially with all fruits/nuts and sunny weather....but I digress....

Is there a Doctor in the house? I believe if you have a Docotrs note stating that the Tint is necessary for your health you can get away with it. I think you can get a doctor to say that your skin is sensitive to sunlight or something. Is there a Doctor in the house that can write me a note incase I get pulled over?

Actually, I am a doc., but the Kalifornia law only allows exceptions for those who have a doctors official note on stationary or a prescription AND the tint must be readily removable (i.e. a framed window cover) AND not used at night....which basically excludes window tinting as we know it

So, sorry, no group buy in the Peoples Republic of Kalifornia
