Dennis, I did not know Levi's history with the fuzz. In this case, I would wholeheartidly agree. Chalk it up to be young. I was that way when I was younger, as were we all. My son can't understand why I want to leave early in the mornings when I take him to school. He can't understand that by leaving early, I don't have to rush and fly up the road. Run yellow lights or drive aggressively. I have had my run ins with the fuzz in my early driving years and experience has taught me to leave a little early so I can take my time and not run the risk of an accident or a speeding ticket. I like to be able to say I have a clean driving records with 0 points.

I'm just trying to educate so you don't get the enforcement.
Im not picking on you dude im just curious is this something that you would normally look for or turn around for ya know

Without getting too off topic, I do look for it. Just not so much on vintage cars, if you catch my DRIFT. I have attended a POST certified class on street racing and modified emission controls. If it gets me under the hood of certain cars, heck ya i'm looking for it.

2804. A member of the California Highway Patrol upon reasonable
belief that any vehicle is being operated in violation of any
provisions of this code or is in such unsafe condition as to endanger
any person, may require the driver of the vehicle to stop and submit
to an inspection of the vehicle, and its equipment, license plates,
and registration card.

40303. (a) Whenever a person is arrested for any of the offenses
listed in subdivision (b) and the arresting officer is not required
to take the person without unnecessary delay before a magistrate, the
arrested person shall, in the judgment of the arresting officer,
either be given a 10 days' notice to appear, or be taken without
unnecessary delay before a magistrate within the county in which the
offense charged is alleged to have been committed
and who has
jurisdiction of the offense and is nearest or most accessible with
reference to the place where the arrest is made. The officer may
require that the arrested person, if he or she does not have
satisfactory identification, place a right thumbprint, or a left
thumbprint or fingerprint if the person has a missing or disfigured
right thumb, on the 10 days' notice to appear when a 10 days' notice
is provided. Except for law enforcement purposes relating to the
identity of the arrestee, a person or entity shall not sell, give
away, allow the distribution of, include in a database, or create a
database with, this print.
(b) Subdivision (a) applies to the following offenses:
(1) Section 10852 or 10853, relating to injuring or tampering with
a vehicle.
(2) Section 23103 or 23104, relating to reckless driving.
(3) Subdivision (a) of Section 2800, insofar as it relates to a
failure or refusal of the driver of a vehicle to stop and submit to
an inspection or test of the lights upon the vehicle pursuant to
Section 2804, that is punishable as a misdemeanor.


In other words, a person can go to jail for refusing to submit to an lighting inspection, among other things.

The original question was; "Is it legal to black out your car entirely besides the front windshield? My car's black, wheels are black, I just ordered black background headlights, I'm customizing my signals. I got some tint for the tail lights and stuff. I know the tail lights yeah, but the bumpers and everything its legal to black out the car right?"

As stated above; most states dont allow blacked-out side front windows, blacked-out headlights, taillights, or turn signals. That's all safety stuff. Go ahead and black-out the wheels, bumpers, chrome, etc, etc.
