So, I was driving along (the speed limit) on Foothills Blvd, a block away from my house, and I got pulled over. The police officer, walks up and asks if I knew why I was being pulled over. I was nice and polite the whole time and said no I dont sir. And he says that he was checking to see if people were speeding and hitting people with his radar gun, but when he tried it on me, it wouldnt lock for a bit and then when it did I was going the speed limit, so he asks me if I had a radar jammer thing. I said no, and he looks up my license and reg info and it all checks out. He then asked me what my car and what my hood were made out of, because he thought it was carbon fiber (which it isnt yet) and I said no sir mr officer. He then asks me to pop my hood, so he can inspect it because after he tapped on it, it sounded like carbon fiber. So I did, and he said yup, thats carbon fiber, and I was like, ummmm.... I dont think it is. And he said, oh no, thats there is some carbon fiber. And I was like sweet, I got an sti with a carbon fiber hood. He then looks around at all the **** I have done to my car, ARC front mount, downpipe, exhaust-no cat-etc. And he said is all that **** legal. I replied honestly that I had been to BAR and passed and had all the paperwork in the glove box, including a copy of my ticket with the sticker from the ref on it and he looked at it, and said "cool" and said drive safely and let me go.

Again, I'm not writing this to start some dumb discussion thats already been done over and over again, its just my experience in Roseville, in my STi, ,last nite.
So, what exactly is the complaint about? Not getting a bull**** ticket?

It's because when they impound and crush the street racers' cars they b0rk their crushers on all the hard to damage carbon fiber body panels.

Nope, no complaints, I know if I mod my car, there is always a chance of getting pulled over and getting a ticket, and I'm fine with that.
