jus sharing my pain
I have a friend who is a Concord cop and work with someone who use to be with Concord PD. I also work with a lot of cops. I don't think they'd help you cause tint on your front windshield is a vehicle code violation in California. Because of this, it is illegal.

I've heard no tint in the front, but 70% use to be legal. You probably can get away with 50%.

I got a ticket in oakland for front tint...it was cloudy. Luckily the cop didn't get me for front windshield tint. But he did get me for front license plate. Just find a friend to sign it off.

What is there to check into?

When you buy a new car in CA there are no plates on it, and the dealer doesn't issue them (like in PA). All you have to do is wait until the #$@%* DMV sends them. There's a little white sticker in the windshield that contains all the temp licensing info.

So i went to the CHP office in Walnut Creek and the cop came out side had me start teh car rev it up a little and said its a little loud but i will write it off but i still had to pay the fine.

27151 cvc modified exhaust. on your ticket did the cop check NO for Correctable? I am going to find somewhere to get it decibel tested and contest this POS ticket. Im probably gonna go to a referee station and pay the fee to get a certificate of compliance so i wont get hassled over this sh*t no more.
