making is not illegal however posessing the explosive devices is illegal in many areas.

Oh and using said home made explosives is sketchy at best illegal the rest of the time especially if you get caught.

Your back windows are around 28-30% the catch is that I believe that the tint laws in NC are 32% which puts you a touch lighter on the front but not too noticeable under most light conditions I've quoted the NC regs on window tint. The bold sections are what allow them to have darker behind the driver and this exclusion is standard across the 50 states which is what allows them to be tinted from the factory, however federal safety regulations prohibits factory tinting of the windows adjacent to the driver. Most tint mfg's only make 30 & 35% tint there are a few that make a 32% tint Madico is one that comes to mind, however if memory serves me right it's only availible in a true black which will appear differently from the inside because the factory tint is not completey black it's a smoke color.


Section 1. G.S. 20-127, as amended by Chapter 683 of the 1993 Session Laws (Reg. Sess. 1994), reads as rewritten: "§ 20-127. Windows and windshield wipers. (a) Windshield Wipers.
(b) Window Tinting Restrictions. -- A window of a vehicle that is operated on a highway or a public vehicular area must comply with this subsection. The windshield of the vehicle may be tinted only along the top of the windshield and the tinting may not extend more than five inches below the top of the windshield or below the AS1 line of the windshield, whichever measurement is longer.
Any other window of the vehicle may be tinted in accordance with the following restrictions:
(1) The total light transmission of the tinted window must be at least thirty-five percent (35%). A vehicle window that, by use of a light meter approved by the Commissioner, measures a total light transmission of more than thirty-two percent (32%) is conclusively presumed to meet this restriction.
(2) The light reflectance of the tinted window must be twenty percent (20%) or less.
(3) Tinted film or another material used to tint the window must be nonreflective and must be a color other than red, yellow, or amber.
(c) Tinting Exceptions. -- The window tinting restrictions in subsection
(b) of this section apply without exception to the windshield of a vehicle. The window tinting restrictions in subdivisions (b)(1) and (b)(2) of this section do not apply to any of the following vehicle windows: (1) A window of an excursion passenger vehicle, as defined in G.S. 20-4.01(27)a. (2) A window of a for-hire passenger vehicle, as defined in G.S. 20-4.01(27)b. (3) A window of a common carrier of passengers, as defined in G.S. 20-4.01(27)c. (4) A window of a motor home, as defined in G.S. 20-4.01(27)d2. (5) A window of an ambulance, as defined in G.S. 20-4.01(27)f. (6) The rear window of a property-hauling vehicle, as defined in G.S. 20-4.01(31). (7) A window of a limousine. (8) A window of a law enforcement vehicle. (9) A window of a multipurpose vehicle that is behind the driver of the vehicle. A multipurpose vehicle is a passenger vehicle that is designed to carry 10 or fewer passengers and either is constructed on a truck chassis or has special features designed for occasional off-road operation. A minivan and a pickup truck are multipurpose vehicles. (10) A window of a vehicle that is registered in another state and meets the requirements of the state in which it is registered.
