You are asking me to trash a thread after what you did last night in the general?

There isn't a state that I'm aware of that allows less than 28% on front roll-ups IF they allow tint at all.

I think Texas is 27% on front roll ups.

There are a few that are lower than I thought they'd be....

This says Texas is 25%vlt

ALL of them (tint laws) have a "fudge" factor in them. Usually + or - 3%. To accout for all factors inluding meter accuracy, Film batch VLT variance, etc. Actually, what the statute says and what the testing centers will allow are 2 different values. Go Figger!!

The actual statute says 25% on front rollups, Testing will allow 20%. How this can be considered a legitimate enforceable law is beyond me. Too ambiguous. But then again, thats Texas for ya!

Ok so does this mean that a tint shop can get a fine for tinting a car darker than the legal % in there state? Maybe a stupid question but I am new to this and just looking for the rights and wrongs on this.

I'd say yes, but I haven't read the actual statutes. Thats the prob around here. Everyone is relying on this or that chart. I've got a NOVEL idea!! READ THE STATUTES FOR YOUR STATE!!! Tint laws are kinda like the pot laws. It's a ticket in some states, fo sho jail time in others.

DON'T RELY ON SOMEONE ELSE!! read your states tint statutes! Charts will tell you whats legal, but don't say s**t about what the penalties are, and they don't address the issues of installing illegal tint. The statutes DO.

OBVIOUSLY NOT ENOUGH, Bro!!!
