Arya, I have been pulled over solely for tint. It sucked and I had to remove it from the front windows.

STiYLIN, your car would be an awesome stealth car if it wasn't for the tint and bent license plate. Losing the badges and STi wing looks really clean.

I just got my new front bumper and the front license plate is gone. Did the cutout for my black FMIC and got some diamond mesh to match the upper to cover it (painted it flat black also). Thnx for the compliments. Less is more imo.

It's not like I drive in reverse much. Couple times a day when I reverse out of my driveway. Subaru installed these sweet extras called side mirrors, they work wonders.....

The purple tints dont have metal in them. Only the good stuff like what Omega uses has metal in the tint.

So i heard from someone that when you get a tint ticket you can either take it off or pay a fine. Is this true?

Yes, i believe this is the case with any fix-it ticket.

It is unfortunate that I do not have an off day until the 16th, so I have to wait awhile for my appointment. It's okay though since if he does the job you guys say he does It will be worth it.

Just in time for the release of the Avic D3 =)
