yep, It allows for 35% on the front windows. I have a few buddies with this exemption. You have to go to an optometrist to get it though. They will run you through a light sensitivity test.

There is one outside of newton called "the tint shop" they do AMAZING work! And guarantee it!

 

i have had sooo many tint tickets that i cant even begin to count how many i have had so i definetly know the answer to this, in the front the amount of light that has to be able to come in is 70% so basically you cannot have anything in the front because 70% tint is completly useless/pointless, back windows there is no law for those, you can have it as dark as you want.

this is what the three cops said when they pulled me over and wrote me ciatation for it.

my front windows on my cobalt were only letting in 14% so the cops really hated me for it! hahahah

 

I wondered how dark that was...

You know some insurance companies will raise rates for tint tickets? I know its dumb.. but When i was shopping around one or two of them told me they would.

 

When i got busted for speeding in north dakota in my balt they measured my 20% windows and said it was 14%. So if you remember my silver balt thats how dark it is lol.
I wonder if state farm does....i have one in my truck. Its not a moving violation so if they raise my rates im gonna be PISSED.

 

Like I said I have had tons of tint tickets and my insurance never went up a cent, insurance doesnt increase unless you get a moving violation......at least it shouldnt, mine doesnt

 

Anything on the back windows and nothing on the front because your windows are 70% stock already

 

is there any laws on tinting the tail lights? even if u use like Nightshades.....cuz the only thing i've heard was that your tail lights had to be visible from a certain distance....but i dont know lol

 

^^ Hahahahh I Got Some Tickets For That Too, In Iowa You Cannot Tint Your Headlights Or Taillights, I Got A Ticket For Window Tint, Tinted Tails, And Tinted Headlights All At The Same Time... Heheheh

 

i'll have to check WI laws, prolly the same as iowa on the headlights and tails...or just get an extra set of tails, and tint them, and if i get pulled over for em, i'll just slap in the old ones

 

 

Reppin SE Iowa here. Soon to have a loudmouth catback to scare the old folks!

 

Anyone going to be at eddyville tonight for test n tune/midnight madness?

 

Thinking about heading to Cedar Falls tonight for their Friday fun night, I wonder if the weather will hold out

 

i might be there next weekend in iowa to switch back to my stock exhaust. i'm getting tired of almost getting pulled over on base... idk we'll see. on a side note, anyone interested in a 3" cat-back with a 14" magnaflow resonator & a borla muffler? lol

 

hows it sound? i like the tone of the Megan race catback

 

it sounds really really good... its extremely deep and sounds really nice. my only problem with it is not so much my problem so much as the cops on base having a problem with it

 

do you know if it'll bolt up to a stock dp?

 

probably would but i wouldn't go 3" on a 2.2...

 

I have a megan I will be getting rid of soon..

 

is it the 3" or 2.5" megan?

 

anybody els enjoying this heat wave........

 

Hey guys....So I got hit last week and I need body shop recommendations for Iowa City/Coralville/N. Liberty area. Anyone?

 

The megan exhaust is 2.5"

And yes, I love this heat wave!

 

Up here in Cedar Rapids I went to REAM Autobody. They did a pretty good job. Even repainted my front bow tie.

 

hey guys, i am gonna be doing a little road trip sometime this summer. And one stop is in Des Moines, Iowa. Just seeing if there is any balts around this area that would like to meet up. I plan on being around this area for 2 days. Doign whatever, partying if we can find partys, hanging out. Meeting people.
