Default Windsheild tint

I am thinking about putting a tint on windshield. I have 20% tint on the sides and 10% on the rears and hatch. I am thinking about a 45% tint on the windshield. It will cost about $40 bucks and a ticket (if i ever got one would be about $140). It would really cut down on heat in the car which is nice since my car temp often reaches 125 degrees here in Arkansas.

few of my friends have done it with 35% and though it looks cool, and they really have no problems seeing through it, it's a def. stand out when a cop sees it. they have a peice of plastic that sticks to the windshield that you stick the inspection sticker on to also....

I'm surprised anybody is actually considering/has done this. I can't think of many surer ways to get a ticket.

i have llumar 30% on my front and it looks nice,
but it is a sure way to get a ticket. its not that noticeable when you roll your windows down.
if you do get tint on your front just ask yourself how much it is worth to you
