Tint question for TX folks
I posted this over in the cosmetic mods forum but got no traction, so posting it here hoping for some responses.
My dealer tinted my windows before I took delivery, but I've decided I want to go darker all around. Legal limit is 35% on the front windows last I checked here in TX. For those who have gone darker than 35% on your fronts, have you had any problems passing your annual inspection? I'd like to do 20% all around. |

Annual inspection is not the problem. I just have the dealer do the inspection when I'm in for service and they don't care. DPS troopers have pulled me over before in a previous car. It's those you have to worry about. Local police typically don't care about that or plates. DPS troopers do.
Plus, I know a place in Lakeway that doesn't care either. PM me if you need a recommendation for tint or inspection. And BTW, BMW of South Austin tinted mine, against my wishes, and I had someone remove it all and go darker. Dude was awesome and didn't cause any damage. Let me know if you want his number. |

I'd planned on using Sun Busters in Lakeway whenever I can actually get a moment to leave my car with them for a day. They quoted me $179 for removal. Thanks for the 411 about the DPS troopers. Good news is Abbott has them so busy at the border that I rarely see one on the roads anymore. In fact, just drove down to Port Aransas on Monday for a short vacation with the fam, and didn't see a single trooper the entire way. Really weird not seeing any troopers on 37 at any point. |
