i got towed by the police, which in this case was illegal for them to do, and I told them it was. All I did was print out the law take it to the court that I was challenging the ticket in and I got out if it easy and the state had to pay all my court costs and everything was erased.

Yea but around here cops hate when you challenge them and they automatically want to throw you in nickel plated bracelets. I truely believe he was bored because I wasn't speeding or anything just following the curve to my house. Like I say O well.

hey look at it this way.
what did u pay for the overlays?
cuz im sure it wouldnt have been as much as the ticket...
so there ya go.

SAHYEE

like 20 bucks beats a fix it ticket for real tho

ScionDave

if its a fix it ticket, just swap out the tails for another legal set and have a cop sign off on it and ur set, n then just swap them back on after.

or just man up to the fact that u were doing something illegal.
I got a tint ticket last week.
ive had tints for about a year, and finally got one.
i asked the cop if it was a fix it ticket, he said nope, just a regular one.
yea it sucked that i got a $75 ticket, but my tints are illegal, and thats a fact.
so i paid the ticket and moved on...left the tint on though. lol.
just gotta stay outta Elmhurst, IL

SAHYEE

well i never knew or thought that they would be illegal because so many cars in South FL have them, some are even painted on, luckily for me all i had to do was just peel mine off and avoid a ticket

i dont think they are entirely illegal.
im pretty sure here in IL the law is that you have to be able to see the brake light when its illuminated from at least 100 ft.
im sure you couldve challenged the cop but its not really worth the hassle.

SAHYEE

yea so i just gave up. now im on the hunt for some tyc's

yeah NJ doesn't really care about smoked tail lights. i had them on my eclipse and my friend on his cougar. and they were BLACK. no problems ever.

TexazBaller06

dang Ive had mine for over a year now and no problems here. Knock on wood..... State troopers here in TX are butts too... But in all u got lucky.. rather have to take mine off then pay a fine.. I hate giving the pigs money..lol

Or Naperville, or Downers, or Aurora....these suburban cops have nothing better to do, I swear.

yea, ive been pulled over numerous times for a variety of things but never had the tints mentioned by any cops. it was just weird. he came out of nowhere and was behind me. Whatever, its all said and done, paid the $75 and moved on.

I see your in Glen Ellyn, me too man, i wonder if ive ever seen you drivin around.

MaxxFMTC

Its possible- (for now) i just have a generally unmodified FM. Pretty much the only driving around I do these days is to COD and back.

I've had my tinted tails (done by jonstintedtails.com) on for 1 year and have gotten 1 ticket (for speeding, hooray) in that year. never had a cop say anything about my tinted lights. They're pretty dark too. Bad thing is - mine can't peel off, lol.
