I'm from Texas but will be spending all summer in LA. I currently have my front windows with a 35% film and I'm wondering how much of a problem I'll have. Should I get them stripped or take my chances?
How strict on tint are they in California?

Well, if you are keeping your Texas plates there's actually nothing they can do about it...
I just saw that you have 35% on your front windows, I don't believe there is a state that would bug you about that light of tint.

Mine literally is 1% above Texas legal (25% is legal) and when I got my state inspection they had me at 26% on their meter. With that said it's something like 37% film on top of the 70% glass.
I'll be in Newport then off to Vegas and back over to Texas. I probably should put my front plate back on before I head there, yes?

You'll be fine in newport. I had a 01 Jaguar x-type for one year bought the car without front plates and never got pulled over. Lol I mainly drive on the freeway though thats probably why.

Yeah I called the PD and said I'll be in town for a few weeks on business and they said I'd be fine since I have Texas plates. Thank god because I definitely didn't want to get my windows stripped and retinted at the end of summer
