"By law you are not allowed to modify your car." LAPD told this to me
Anything you do to it that is not OEM/Factory/Dealer is illegal
Just to name a few:
1) Bigger then OEM wheels(most cops wont pull you over for it)
2) Lowered Vehicle
3) Modified Exhaust
4) After market HID
5).....
you get the point

No problem here also, but when I do see one of them I never make eye contact with them. Cruise off like a boss

LAPD guy didn't know what he's talking about....That' why we have organizations like SEMA. You guys that modify your cars should support SEMA because they are car enthusiast like us that fight for our rights to modify our cars.

Well since this was bumped up, ill share mine. Usually down here in FL i dont get messed with but my girlfriend lives in a kind of for lack of a better word "redneck" part of south FL, It sucks to drive my car out their. Anyways Im driving home from her house, literally around the corner, going the speed limit a cop lights me up. so i scrape over to the grass(its all crap roads, dirt roads, and grass areas). He asks me for license, registration blah.. and asks me "why did you do this to a lexus?" and "why do your wheels protrude from the car?" i just gave him the bs response "its a fad" to shut him up and he let me go on my merry little way. Im 21 and cant afford another ticket
