Thats why he pulled me over. he was right to do so. I think the biggest problem is that you think you are being targeted because of your car. I have driven nothing but Camaro / Firebirds since 1993, and owned our '69 since 1985 (and it was and is loud as hell, roll bar, NHRA lega into the 10's) and never once have I been stopped for anything that I did not deserve. You need to check yourself and stop blaming the cops for doing their job, and I promise, I am no big fan of the traffic cop, but I am realistic.

Once again, never blamed the cop. I was speeding and some of my mods are illegal. Just saying I think they can over look some of the silly things. I drove a formula firebird from 16 until I got this car at 25 and I got pulled over all the time, probably over 15 times and only got one ticket. Its known around here that cops pull over modified cars just to check them out (drugs, alcohol, ect.) and Im fine with that. I just used to get warnings for the silly things. Talked to my cop friend yesterday and he said he would never give someone a ticket for tint unless it was limo and never cited a missing front plate. He told me that cop must have missed lunch lol. Its really ok though, Ill pay and its over and continue the mods ; ) he was just doing his job (although I personally think he was overachieving haha)
