Should you turn people away if they ask for illegal tint?

Answer 1: In certain states, customers can legally sue you for any traffic tickets they get if they are caught with illegal tint installed by you. That being said, filing a lawsuit is super time-consuming, and most customers don’t bother. Just know that rules and regulations differ from state to state, and you might want to read up on the potential consequences that your shop could face.   Answer 2: Many tinters simply let the customers know that what they’re asking for is illegal, and then proceed with the job if they still want to do it. The key is to let them know that it’s illegal.   Answer 3: You can face fines of up $1,000 just for installing illegal tint in some cases. You might want to avoid installing illegal tint because of this, especially if you’re just starting up and you don’t have much extra cash to pay off fines.   Answer 4: A lot of tinters choose to stamp the receipt with the words “not legal.” They then ask the customer to initial the receipt. This provides some protection against potential legal ramifications if the customer gets a ticket.   Answer 5: You can always claim that the vehicles were intended for “off-road use only.”
