VA law is 35% rear and 50% front.
Kinda late...Gummi Pfledge both sides of door seals, trunk seals and hood seals over the weekend.
Dane & Vas,
VA law is 50% front side windows, 35% rear side windows, 20% rear window. So yes, 35% all around is definitely not within regs, but a little lighter on the rear and nothing on the windshield helps lighten it up a little bit, as does a gray vs. black interior. All of this is fully understood by the young Jedi, he knows the consequences and has still decided to go 35% all around. It's his mod money on the tint, I couldn't change his mind, and it will be his money if he should ever get a tint violation.
Well, after doing some reading on the Xbimmers forum, I decided to look and see if a common crankcase breather tube was cracked. Apparently this corrugated plastic vacuum line is known for failing due to heat (understandable as it runs right over the two turbos), so I checked into it, and sure enough, mine had a crack. I figured I could get by for a day until I get to the dealer and pick up a replacement part, but while trying to wrap it with electrical tape (temporary fix FTW!) it cracked in another location, into two pieces. :facepalm. So, I managed to tape it there too... Lovely...
Luckily the part is in stock at the local dealer, only $30 too. I can stomach this repair cost, so tomorrow I'll pick up the new part and install. Of course, obligatory test drive to make sure temporary fix will suffice. Luckily it works.
Oh, and launch control still works too.... :shifty
Yes, I did lay on the horn as I was avoiding. And, lol, maybe I should post the days WITHOUT a close call.

Bruce had his (and Brett's) Xi windows tinted. And I saw the mystery machine.
