I have 20 all around-and I'm kinda scared of getting a ticket. My buddy has gotten 2 so far. When ever I see a cop, its an automatic reaction to roll the windows down.

20% is legal in arkansas I do believe. Although no matter what company your tint is made by, they say it's 20%...the cop's tint reader thingy always says it's lower... ****** homos

I had 5% on the rear, and I couldn't **** either when I was off road . . . . you could put some reverse lights out back like I did

my buddy got busted with 2 all the way around and 35 on the windshield, his ticket was only 100 bucks and it was in the same parish as me so thats not so bad but hopefully the DA's office will drop it to a seatbelt($25 non-moving violation) or all the way

theres a sticker the tint places can put on your window that states its within legal limits. Just get one of those and you can show the DA that according to the shop that put it on its legal and they should drop it.

I SERIOUSLY doubt any smart shop is just going to give you that sticker. If they get caught the fine is thousands of dollars.
