Kelowna...obviously you are in B.C. so I'm not exactly sure on street regulations in your province but, for all the Ontario boys and girls....
Color-tint, mirror tint, chrome tint, and the sort are all illegal in the province of Ontario. I cannot speak for other provinces but, we do not do any of these styles of tint due to regulations by the MTO, at our shop.
Despite what ya'll might think, it is not allowed and yes alot of people have these styles of tint and may not get pulled over...ever...but any reputable shop, that is licenced by the MTO will not do these styles, in this province.
That being said, 9-times-outta-10, you will not get a hassle or pulled over but, you run a risk, and some fines I have seen are right up there with 35-45+km/h speeding tickets, and YESS you can get demerrit points added depending on the situation, and your car can be pulled off the road and towed at YOUR expense..
sorry to be the voice of reason...it scares me too.. but I saw a really nice modded Acura get towed 2 weeks ago for having mirrored tint..(okay, the tint was ugly but, it does happen)
Anyone looking for more info regarding automotive tint and regulations in the Province of Ontario can contact me and I'd be happy to provide proper paperwork for them!
