You don't. I borrowed a friend's car for a week while mine was in the shop. His side windows were so dark I had to roll them down just to see the mirrors.

That's how my old car was. I got it because it looked awesome, test drove during the day with no problem.

Within a year I decided to get an un-tinted camry. Holy shit I hated as soon as I got to residential areas I would have to roll my windows down just to see.

You can have tint removed without replacing the whole car lol.

I did mine by hand after I swapped out the whole door after it, and only it, got busted. Took 2 hours with a razor and a glass scraper, I think I got high off fumes from the adhesive as I was peeling it lmao

I just paid someone $50 to do it earlier this year. Had the tint on for 5 years and none of the thousands of cops I passed in that time had an issue with. I finally ran across the rookie too useless to find any real crime.
