Default just got pulled over for....

-Tint strip on windshield was too low
-Tint on third brake light
-Tint on tail lights
-Tinted license plate cover
-Exhaust being too loud?


thank the fckin holy lord that i he gave my 5 written warnings.. he said he did it bc im in the fire academy.. if i would have gotten a ticket, i would be fckkkkkked.. and plan on never getting hired on when i graduate..

(because of my 60 in a 35 speeding ticket in dec.)

so heres my deal.. i need your guys help..

i already fckin ditched the tag cover.. i need some ideas on some tail lights.. im low on cash, like crazy.. and need to figure out the best way to do this..

i also need a middle brake light now i guess too!?

and then i have to get that strip on my windshield taken off..

he said "if i see you again with this stuff not taken care of, its gunna be a ticket..

FCK


whatever.. and btw, i was driving UNDER the speed limit, minding my own business, and saw him go out of his way to get behind me.. wtf.. (i know where the guy lives too LOL.. i see him and his cruiser parked down the street from my grandparents, where i go to do work for them and help them out..)



so any suggestions would be awesome.. thanks guys

ya.. i might do that.. i did the tail lights with VHT night shades.. they looked fckin really good, except, like 2 weeks ago, the clear coat starting peeling off bc i guess i wet sanded them too much.. i dunno.. so i actually was looking to do something about it anyways..

but man this sucks.. makes me want to get back into a truck just that much more bc of crap like this.. its a cop magnet.. no matter what

i have vht niteshades on mine as well but i didnt do them very dark. i just made them looke matte to match my stripes. got pulled over last week for no front tag and cop never gave a second look. All my lights are tinted and my tint is 10% illegal and the windsheild tint comes down way to far. Only got a warning for the plate. Atleast he did just give you warnings. i would hate to see what the fine would be for all that. i think those tails would look ok and they should be legal because they dont restrict the light output.
