Sorry you were treated in such a bad way. But I know exposed tanks will cause a alarm on the border these days. Concealment of contraband and or VBIED, they never know and must take precaution. But they should have treated you with repect through all this. Sometimes, there are officers who believe that everyone is a bad guy. Hopefully next time you will get a better respecting and trained officer.

Sorry to hear that. I live in Canada and I hate going across the border. They always make you feel like a criminal. The border has been tightened up a lot since 911.

Hass,

you should have called me, I would have come to the border and showed them my trunk. We could say that me and you got the same FUEL TANK MOD!!

my trunk valence is missing also, they already ripped my trunk apart so many times i forgot to count, know I dont even bother putting things back in terms of carpet.

Make their job easier keep your trunk naked, loool.

Ali is definetly the best name on this board. Alis represent !!! I got profiled coming out of a Halal resturant once right after Jumaa almost negated the whole prayer.
yeah profiling sucks though
I've been pulled over for
"suspician that my passesger's seatbelt was not properly fastened"
"driving with an unlevel licence plate"
and various other offenses that haven't resulted in my getting a ticket.
I'm lucky those cops were nice guys (and a nice lady with the plate)

I think it's how our car looks. Hardly any SC's on the road are stock; there's probably a whole 10%, if that. And our cars look extraordinary compare to others. I had this happen to me several times: for my tinted windows, my license plate light, ect, even for slowing down from speed limit, since I picked his radar up with my detector. He had the stupidest question, "Were you racing? Why did you slow down?" I was like...."aaa. no, can't race against myself sir, and I slow down b/c I just decided to move my leg from it's position." I had a time 2 troopers and a K-9 all pull me over and had that canine search my car. All this is b/c my tint, my age, my race, and I was decently dress for my job interview. They probably said."aeey booi, derr go a drug deala, let's git him." **** me off.

I honestly don't have time for those guys, i work 30 hours a week with 13 credits at school. I talked to this lady at work that loves to chat with me because i always coming up with the craziest story. She said, the reason they targeted me was because of my car, nationality and age range.
