read your local laws. most states have a minimum height requirement. its like the headlights have to be a certain height above the ground to give adaquate lighting. even though most cops don't enforce it, you will find the occasional jackass that will.

and the noise pollution happens all the time. ive heard from several cops that say if they can hear your music while they have their windows up, they can give you a ticket for it being too loud

Cops are lame dude...I got pulled over and fined in my town for going through a yellow light..I didn't even gun it to make it through before it was going to turn red..I've even been given written warnings for my stereo system being too loud...I think they're jealous cuz our cars are cooler than theirs.

heh I got pulled over two weeks ago, and I was thinking WTF? I was doing nothing wrong. Guys get out of the car, walks up and tells me he owns a black first gen 3000, and wanted to talk about the car lol.

My muffler had on the box 50 state legal which means my fart can is allowed anywhere. As for being low You must has 6" of body above the ground here. I got pulled over in my nissan truck cause i had a 6/7" drop and my truck drug goin down the hiway causing sparks. He said i was too low and i laughed and said it wasnt low enough.

He thought thatr was funny so he let me off.
