not true

What constitutes half ass? how would a cop know if your springs were cut, or you have a full on coil over kit. They dont, they dont care. From what i've been told when I had the lude, it was from the front support to the ground, but i donno how they would know where you support is behind your bumper cover?


EDIT: Its sunday by the way.....your gonna need extra luck.

i could give two shits less how low your car is, for state inspection it is not checked. this guy wants STATE INSPECTION advice...not local cops.


the only thing that is checked for state inspection is that the car is safe. cut springs, chintzy coil overs, and blocks are all things that will be rejected for state inspection.


i love rejecting riced out shitcans myself, but i dont do it if its legal.
