Has anyone gone with a window tint for the front door windows that is a shade lighter than the back?

No state allows windshield tint. Most only allow 35% on front windows. And yes cops do pull people over for dark tint and cite them. Had a friend bought a used car and didn't pay attention to the tint. Pulled over by trooper on way home from used car dealer, cited and given a defect. She wasn't happy with the dealer and made them take it off.

I know some cops will impound a car for excess tint and it can't be released until the tint is legal. But they can't get in too remove it so it sits.

No matter what you want, dark tint, ceramic or not, is dangerous at night in low light areas.

15% Front, 5% Rear.

Come and take it.

Ok everyone I appreciate the replies and the pics as well. I opted for the ceramic Pinnacle tint at 50% and I am very happy with my choice. I can see very well through the windows and they block half the heat and 99% UV which is a no brainer. Of course they look lighter or darker depending on the background but over all this is a light tint and legal in Virginia where I live. I will include a before after pic.

Thank you. Yours looks great.

I've lived in VA. Cops there love to harass people for simple stupid stuff and I wouldn't give them a reason there. In Montana - they couldn't care less. What a petty thing to bother people for. Crazy thing is... states like VA and NY I have seen cops use unmarked vehicles with 5% tint all around.

Funny how that works...

Ya thats why I kept mine very basic......the older I get I just dont like the sun micro waving me through my drivers window so I had to knock it down a bit. Since i am gunna rock the steelies and the bone stock look hopefully they wont waste their time pulling me over.....and if they do the tint receipt will be in the glove box.

My Tint guy told me I'd need to probably do 15%-20% to match. I told him that was too dark for me and to do 30% so I still have the option to see at night.

No state allows windshield tint.

Hawaii, North Dakota, and Ohio allow 70%.
I went 50% and have no concerns about getting ticketed. Makes a big difference on heat and glare, most people would not know it is tinted.
