Hey Everyone,

I recently moved to NH from another state where tinting and no front plate were not reasons to fail a state inspection and now I'm overdue for a NH state inspection.

I've found Pro-Vision Automotive and 3D Auto by searching the threads? My M3 has dark tint on all the windows except for the front windshield and doesn't have a front plate. I love my dark tinting so I'm trying my best to not have to remove it just to get a state inspection sticker.

Can anyone recommend other tint friendly NH state inspection stations in the Manchester or Nashua area. If anyone can help me get me a sticker, I'll be more than glad to bring a case of your favorite beer for the trouble.. Or if anyone knows a shop looking for an easy $40. Please PM if you're not comfortable posting a reply.

Thanks :)
See if you can get an eye doctor to diagnose you with light sensitivity or something like that. No shop wants to overlook something that will obviously be noticed if you get pulled over.
My local gas station puts stickers on all my cars. No front plates, tint, mods, they don't care.
But they also know I take good care of my cars and would never point my finger at them if I got pulled over.
I think the key will be to have a relationship with a shop. If you don't, they will follow the rules.
Hard to believe the "Live Free or Die" state is only 1 of 4 states that bans any amount of tinting on the front windows.

The medical waiver will only allow you to have 35% tint so I'm still out of luck because my tint is much darker.

Still no inspection sticker. Haven't driven the car much. Kinda dissapointed that on an enthusiast board that no one was willing to help out and suggest a place in the Manchester area.

Looks like it's time to my representative to take steps to get this NH tinting law changed.

Yeah i was shocked to find out as well.

You don't need to wear your seatbelt or carry liability car insurance but you can't tint your front windows. Go figure.

It's time for change.

I have a good buddy who's on the Manchester pd..let me ask him what he knows.

Do you live in Manchester? Only reason I ask is because I'm up there all the time (friends) and it'd be nice seeing another ///M on the roads for a change lol
Pro vision in hudson will not pass you for tints. I tried. But theyre cool with everything else. I often see the gxxr and other modded vehicles parked

Vulctech, or used to be tates garage, are dicks

Hey man, hope youÂ’re doing well! I just moved up to Manch from Jersey. I have 2 cars that have nice ceramic tints all around and I really donÂ’t want to take them off. I saw a super old comment of yours about knowing some shop that might be able to overlook tints. Both my cars are new so easy inspection, just the tintsÂ…anyway you could help me out a little?

Hey man, would you possibly be able to hook me up with wherever you have luck getting inspected with tints? Just moved to Manchester from NJ and don’t want to take off my ceramics…please PM or something if possible
I smell a rat. I would suggest no one replies to "newtoNH223."
