 hey emonz i thought it was at least 17 inches above the ground, 2 inches above the ground is nothing,lol
and yeah there's no exhaust I can think of the top of my head that could be straight up legal

and i saw an undercover cop with a hooked up 07 eclipse a  month after they came out, also saw a cop in a friggen mini van, and like emonz said camaro's and mustangs

A few questions about this:
1.) They said "modified" exhausts were illegal but I didn't see one cop putting a meter to any exhaust whether it be sound or smog so how can anyone be written up for their exhaust??? I'd fight that one in court.

2.) How are engine mods illegal?? You're not allowed to have headers or turbo in Cali??

3.) The cops said they were observing and taping in undercover cars, what kind of cars do they have when they do this?

4.) Why and how was someone able to video tape this bust and with the cop doing an interview????

1) all exhaust mods are illegal unless proves with a C.A.R.B sticker
2) Anything non C.A.R.B Legal is Illegal, while intakes and exhaust are being illegal no matter what. STATE REFF'D
3)One time we got caught up, an undercover was Racing in an EVO VIII CF trunk and Exhaust, They use Towed vehicles to look like racers
4)The interview was done by the local News Channel KTVU

I'm lucky I drive a DSM.  My cousin has been pulled over and harassed for having a "loud" exhaust because he drives a 00 Civic Si and he complains to me all the time because my exhaust is bigger and louder than his (knock on wood! don't want to jinx myself).  The only thing I'm sure of is that if it's carb legal, the cops can't say squat = D

NOT ANYMORE!!! lol, anything is now illegal, but if you show up to court with a CARB sticker, its 10$ either way

LMFAO, Sorry Mike, I replied to those post without noticing you beat me to them

no your lights have to be at least 22 inches above the ground.  when you slam a honda it puts them right around 18inches which is not leagal.  I was watching a street racing bust in cali on TV and they were measuring that.   and writing up for cone filters.

Thats crazy. I'm glad they're USUALLY more forgiving in my town.. hell the cops fix up their personal cars AND their cop cars.. they do bolt ons so no one else knows but anything to make their cars faster.. i've seen it.. i was like WUTT and he replied " what u don't think I could catch a perp with that thing stock do ya?" I couldn't believe it! When I lived in AZ they had a camaro with graphics and a sick exhaust as an undercover car.. it was LAMME!

Also in Los Angeles , CA they measure the ride height with a soda can, if your car is lower than a soda can that cant fit under your sideskirt, your towed too. and in SoCal they not Crush cars in the event to stop the madness

F cali im moving to M-I-A-YO...... plus if cops see you ridin in a nice car and your young, watch them they ll harass you on eveything. i have countless disturbing the peace tickets...plus there in cars you cant even tell that are cop cars in casal cloths,i say entrapment!! and anyone think the same??

i remember getting pulled over for "driving suspiciously" when i was doing the speed limit. i say it was only cuz my car was bright yellow

bright yellow is suspicious? ouch man the police up here in idaho have nothing better to do than make up reasons to pull you over. i havent ever had a ticket for exhaust but they love to tell me its illegal.

freakin cops always harrass ppl about their cars -.-"
i will try to change all that when i become chp = D

In my town, the cops are heavy on getting people for DUI
