Welp, that lasted long... What should I do?
Put on my tint less than 2 months ago, and I get pulled over for illegal tint. From my calculations, i should've been barely legal at about 28% (40% tint layer on top of a layer of 70%), but the tint meter showed 18%.
My choices are to either remove the tint and not have to pay the citation, or leave it on and pay $115. At the same time, it'd cost about $100 to remove the tint. What should I do?

That's smart, but I don't have the time or effort to do it.

I'm thinking I'll just remove the tint on the front windows, get it inspected, then put the legal 35% on. The backs are all about 15%, but I just can't risk another ticket on a college budget.

Yea I kept paying the fine for years then I just got sick of getting pulled over and bit the bullet. It's like they're picking on you sometimes because they got nothing else to do. LAPD man, I can go on and on about these dudes

I changed my mind. First, I'm going to try and get a tint exemption for a visual impairment. If that doesn't work, then I'm going to do the plan I stated above.

Btw, 35% tint on stock glass tested at 27% on my car if that makes any difference in your decision trying to stay legal.
