Black interior won't affect the % of the tint, but it will make it look darker. However, the black paint tends to make the tint look lighter. I do not know GA tint laws, however, if I were in your position, I'd go 20% all around. From what I've seen in and around Atlanta, 20% seems to be the norm.

The tint laws in TX used to be no less than 5% on the front windows. I just got my tint in with lighter than that on front and the law changed like right after allowing darker on front...lol dang it...it was onix tint(like over $400). Got it hooked up for $160 installed. Still I will not be changing it anytime soon.

As a heads up. Georgia law is no less that 32% on all windows (windshield tint prohibited). I've been running 15% for two years and got ticketed once going through a checkpoint

Good choice.thanks for the advice everyone.... ima go with 20%...k3:
k3: I like the look of 5% but its f***ing impossible to see out at night, and the harassment from the 5-0 just ain't worth it. 20% is the happy medium between being too dark to see out and being dark enough to look good imo.

20% should look good. I had 15% all the way around on my 2002 untill i got pulled over for it. They got me at 3am and searched my vehicle. It was about 25 degrees out and they tore everything apart. Me and my girlfriend were stuck on the side of the road with $150 worth of groceries freezing our asses off for over an hour. They ended up confiscating my 9mm since i'm only 19. After all was said and done i had to pull the tint off the front windows. The underage possession of a loaded concealed handgun charges were dropped thanks to my connections . Now all thats left is to get the front windows tinted again.

Loaded, Concealed, and underage? Your lucky you didn't get arrested! So they found the 9mm when they did the search? You know everything about that is illegal. Sorry if I was that cop I would have thrown you in jail.

West Virginia 18 Y/O §61-7-8
This is the minimum age for possessing and transporting a handgun unloaded and secured in a vehicle
without any type of permit/license to carry firearms.
Note: In some states Possession and Transportation CAN be very restrictive in that you can ONLY
possess and transport a handgun to and from a Shooting Range, Gun Shop, property you own or other
places you can legally possess a handgun. Some states do not have this restriction.
This is not the last word on possession and transporting of handguns in this, or any other state. Study your
state law further for more information. See “RV/Car Carry” Section Above for more information.

Which yours wasyou can carry, just can't be loaded or concealed
k3: Multiple laws you broke their. Loaded, concealed, and not advising the officer of it right at the beginning. Instead the officer found it. So lucky you didn't end up in jail.

I know, I follow the rules now... It stays unloaded and I toss it in the back seat while driving (still easy access... ) leave the clip in the back seat pouch. Anytime I park its hidden tho or taken with me...Which yours was

Glad to hear! Whats the point of carrying an unloaded gun? Get a concealed carry license
k3:I know personal protection. But, by the time you get your clip out, load the clip, and chamber around, I could have stabbed or slit you with my razor sharp kershaw knife which, is legal to carry just about anywhere. Worst come's to worst I grab my 2" dagger that is lashed to the backside of my belt. Not saying I would attack someone but, if I had to protect myself, I could in a very short amount of time.
I plan to as soon as I get out of my parents house. They do not like guns and will not allow one in the house. Too many grand kids come around the house
