Naw, wasn't Eric. I would have mentioned the mtech kit and BBS wheels.

I didn't recognize these wheels. They were highly-polished, multi-spoke.

He pulled him over because the car was bad-ass!! Cop was an e90 enthusiast.

I forgot to put my registration sticker on. They expired last month. Nice cop though, he was WSP and said they had a meeting Friday and they are supposed to be cracking down on people with no front license plates. He didn't have the heart to give me a fix it ticket though, who wants a front plate on a nice looking car?

Did he mention the window tinting? What % do you have?

cougfan335 · 04-11-2009, 01:55 PM

I got 15%, he didn't say a word. WA seems pretty easygoing with tinting.

What kind of fine do you get for a "illegal" tinting?

lpphreakx06 · 04-12-2009, 03:15 PM

I've had 15% for almost a year now and no problems.. .
The 'legal' amount is like 35%

Septro · 04-12-2009, 03:22 PM

I got 35 but I should've got 25% since I have a tan interior and the 35% is little bit on the light side. If the interior was dark I would recommend a lighter tint.

i just paid it, not worth my time going to fight that bs.

cougfan335 · 04-12-2009, 10:55 PM

Good to know. I thought it was a fix it ticket would be be a much bigger hassle.

flyingcesar · 04-13-2009, 03:16 PM
