I'd suppose so, if people are getting pulled over and ticketed.

I know improper lighting is one, you cannot modify your exhaust in Florida. I have friends with both aftermarket taillights and exhausts that look OEM stock and they are never hassled.

RX330 came like that from the factory.

They should outlaw all of those JDM mad tite bumpers too.


They dont meet US crash safety standards. I dont want to die in an accident when I get hit by a skreet racer and his cheap fiberglass air scoop hits me in my eye.

I got pulled over for exhaust in my fox when I had a bad exhaust leak and a cracked taillight.

Domestics get stupid tickets too, trust me, the police could give a fuck less what you drive anymore, be a jackass, you will get the penalty. Enough with domestics are better, ya'll aren't gonna learn till you get the jackass cop that doesn't give a fuck what you drive.

You hate imports, so you should sell my that All-Trac since leaving it stock would be a crime to the Toyota community.
