got pulled over...

balance · 11-13-2009, 02:55 AM

damn just be thankful it wasn't a speeding ticket..
I've had 3 speeding ticket within 9 months now and they were all only 5-10 miles over the speed limit but where I live cops are just assholes and are out to get you

I'd say the best thing to do would be to find someone that knows a cop that can write it off..

sucks, didnt you just put some new wheels on, but yea, 400 is too much for any kind of tint

Volk CE28 TA from FrankiE90

you are right $400 for tint is rediculous...maybe no tint for me in the future...

PlannBee · 12-26-2009, 06:58 PM

Well thats unfortunate for you, socal busts everybody for everything!
My brother has no plate on the front his car and tinted front windows and he hasn't been pulled over for it yet.

To answer the plate question, I say go for the tow hook. I'm sure it'll look sick with the plate offseted to the side.

ronn16E90 · 12-26-2009, 10:58 PM

ahah for the front plate, I say 3M it on the sides will do, because the tow hook will give u a gap behind it and people walking around it can fuck it up easily. here is mine

Bweezy311 · 12-26-2009, 11:53 PM

I double sided taped mine. When I went to pull it off it wouldn't budge...2 months later, still on strong and haven't gotten around to getting a heat gun to take it off!

iAerodynamic · 12-26-2009, 11:57 PM

as for tint ticket PAY THE FINE!

not worth taking off and pay officer to sign off and retint. i think it's aorund $100 or $200

quick question, I do want to leave the tint as it is and just get the front plate fixed sigend off. Is that even possible to fix just one violation and pay the fine for the other violation?

Yes its possible.

EZ_TUR90 · 12-27-2009, 07:34 AM

I actually double side my plates 4 times. The cop didn't even get near my car. All of them look at from a distance and sign it off.

lol.. so double sided tape = epic come up

you can also swap plates with a stock lci, cops don't check vin. As long as the color and plates match info on the ticket.

supahdave · 12-27-2009, 11:49 AM

just get the rho-plate mount. Put it on, get it signed off, take it off till next ticket.

They are durable and well worth not drilling holes.

johnjordan2323 · 12-29-2009, 03:01 AM

you guys get bad luck with cops damn tisk tisk wow here in northen cali 4 out of 5 cars are fully tinted. By the way im gettin euro plates see my luck with that ahah

and 400$ to expensive that could have been 4 cars fully tinted

Gavin@MMW · 12-29-2009, 04:53 PM

pay the ticket for the tint, first offense is a 118$ ticket. thats less then taking it off and re-tinting.

I used the double sided tape out here in Simi Valley and worked for me

took it off in the parking lot too lol

David9962000 · 12-29-2009, 07:13 PM

I got my 335 6 months ago and both of my plates are in my trunk. Is that bad? How much is the fine?

Not having a rear plate increases your chances of getting pulled over. We recently went past a bridge toll booth holding our fastrak device and a CHP pulled us over. He thought we were trying to scam the system because he didn't see the fastrak device and we didn't have a rear plate because the car was new. We had the temporary registration glued to the windshield but he didn't see it. Imagine if that happens some night when you've had a little too much to drink? Disaster.

David9962000 · 12-31-2009, 10:37 AM

Thanks guys, I will put them on today.

EXACTLY what I was thinking.
And +1 on them not checking. Had a few plate tickets signed. One times they asked me if it was fixed and didn't even look at the car.

Edit: PM "alpinedevil335" he's LA local and has an AW lci. Maybe you guys can work something out.

Synergy 69 · 01-06-2010, 05:57 PM

does anyone have the link to the motorized front license plate?

I dont think your Vin is on the ticket?

thats a lot of work for a Government employee to do, but i guess if it went that far you could get in trouble for... Fraud? Falsifying ownership of a vehicle, Swapping plates to a vehicle that doesnt belong to you.. and more probably, im not a cop so i dont knw.

350? for tint? WTF? lol were you speeding also? iv had 2 tint tickets, first was 50$ and the second was 118$..
