Default Central Texas HELP!!

Does anybody know anyone on here that would tint my windshield that is in the central Texas area??? 50 miles from Waco is about how far I would go...

Thanks..

BTW I know its illegal...But I also have no front plate so it wouldn't be the only thing...

like your whole windshield... theres a guy here on the circle that will do it... waco tint shop at kennys audio shop on the circle.. and i personally know a badass house tint guy that tints residential buildings ..that does any percent tint for your car and covers it from scratch protection.. if your just aiming for a brow on the windshield any shop will do here... u do know that the front windshield tinted will not pass state inspection,,

How do you pass state inspection since your tint is darker than 20%?? At least your pics look like it...

mine is legal.... i think its 25 or 30 on doors and .5 on back sides and back hatch and .5 on brow in the windshield... i got a buddy that will get me the hook up on the inspection but it cost about 3times as much... plus in my dodge i had .5x2 on doors and back glass and every town i went to i kept getn stopped and its not worth the headache in the end... dont get me wrong your car may look like the **** with badass tint.. but these little texas redneck towns will rule u on tickets on tint and front plates,,,, but to each his own rite.... heres a guy that does window replacements his name is fernando 254-214-8985, ask him about tint and he will square u away... plus this tint guy he hooks u up with is well known here in these parts o waco..

Yea, i changed my mind on tinting the whole windshield... I probably just get the hatch tinted darker so it makes the rest of tint look darker.... And get a tint strip across the top of the windshield.... Thanks for the number and I will call him up....

Thanks

i think u can do six inches on the bottom and top of the front windshield still looks weird though... i went on a trip to ark and i saw a lowered chevy with .5 front tinted windshield and i couldnt see **** in the cab... it lookd kickass .......but imagine his headaches at nite when hes trying to park in the dark

Yea, but I think I'm just gonna at least get my hatch darkened with like 5 or 10%...

Do you know how much it would be with your guy that does tint??? (remove current tint on the hatch and re do the hatch???)

if I do anything it wont be until like Oct. - Nov or somewhere around there...

Thanks again
