Tinting of vehicle glasses have been outlawed by the Nigerian government. In order to be fair, they made exceptions for vehicles with factory tinted glasses which is that every owner or user of any vehicle with factory tinted glasses must obtain a permit from the IG of police, stating strong reasons for the need to use such vehicle.

So, the man's claim is correct.

How. Much bribe did you pay before they let you go?

The man who's doing my papers is a useless selfish man, had it been he told me about this i wouldn't have waisted 20k.. 15k for the permit n 5k for the fixing... Nonsense! I'm really pissed now... So I will remove it

U shld remove it. Tinted glass permit is only for factory tinted glass. Further, the IGP has delegated the function of issuing this permit to COP's

Some people are just like that.

Since you already have the permit, you can go ahead to use it. Just form like one politician whose life is always in danger.

So what were you moaning about? From your opening post and thread title, I assumed you had actually been pulled over. It turns out you hadn't even been driving the car!

You may wish to edit your thread title: "I Have Had My Windows Tinted & Obtained A Permit. Any Issues With Useage?"

If the tint is not from the factory then you would be disturbed.
My advise is to get it removed

Bros, a stitch in time saves nine. Better remove it before they stop you. If not you will have yourself to blame the day they will stop you. Now their eyes are shinning like a 12 noon sun in North looking for who will enter their trap.

How do you determine a tint from a factory?

Which section of the law states explicitly that the tint must be 'factory tinted'?

So much misinformation.

Download the law and read it.

If you have the permit and it's genuine, you are good to go. My brother's infinity FX35 is tinted and with permit. Once the men in black stops you they only ask for the tinted permit. if you present it , you are good

Your permit is useless if your tint is nylon based and not from the factory. A nylon tint is easy to identify.

@OP

Remove the nylon and save yourself the harassment. I'm very sure the tint permit you were given is fake.

If its from the factory it will be part of the glass with no seams, bubbles, or gaps. After market tends to be a coating of some kind on the inside of the glass that has all of these things. If you can scratch it off or if it looks like plastic wrap on the inside of the pane with slight gaps around the edges it's after market.

The only after market way around removable coatings is to replace the glass itself. This is usually only done with higher end cars or ones that have been clearly modified because its rather expensive and most people won't do it.
