I don t know about MA but in michigan you can get a letter from your eye doctor that says you need tint b/c your eyes are extremely sensitive to light. if you are cool with your doctor just ask him, my doctor is my cousin so it worked out pretty well. i have 5% all around and still havent been pulled over. The only problem with that much tint is at night you cant see anything out of your side or back windows. I am afraid every time I make a turn I am going to hit a pedestrian. but it does make the car look sweet
