Is 5% legal in your state?

I like it. I am going to attempt to use a precut Ebay tint for the front windows. I am going to use 35%, even though Iowa's limit is 70%. I am only going to be in Iowa for another month and then I am moving to Florida, so I need to stay away from police for a little while. Florida's limit is 28%, I think.

70%!?! Wow, that's near nothing. 30% is the typical state standard for front sides. I did 20% on mine to match the rears. It's too dark according to law, but as long as they're not looking for a reason to pull you over, they'll never mess with you here.

I like the 5% though deeko, looks nice.

Question, what's that badge above your HEMI badge on the side?

Mine is 5 % all the way around and they left the stock tint on there so its probably 3 % in the back. I live in Nebraska, but I have Texas plates because I'm in the military. The tint law in Nebraska only applies to vehicles required to be registered in Nebraska. Guess the military's good for something.

Doc, putting a bedliner and tonneau (sp) cover on this week hopefully and later that borla like you have. Sounded very impressive in your vid. i think 20% is legal here. it's plenty dark at night driving in the country. looks sweet as hell from the outside tho!!!

that badge is the flippen dealer sticker, never thought to have them removed till after that fact. i had them put zxylon on it so now i suppose if i get them removed there will be a bad spot there.

good thing i have the power sliding rear so i can see backing up at night!!

Wow, that's the dealer sticker. And here I thought they were asshats enough just putting one on the rear or license plate frames. I told our salesman that if they put one on the rear of my truck when it came in, I'd go Iron Sheik on his butt and put him in the Camel Clutch.
