Message	I've gotten pulled over for the "dumbest shit" but ultimately it all came down to I looked like a shady kid in an all black sports car. As annoying as it was, I deserved every bit of police attention as I got. Even the few hours every month I was late to work because they would search my car in morning rush hour traffic, I knew it would happen, and "encouraged" it by doing obvious illegal mods to the car. But yeah, my personal town didn't care, but the next five over did. As much as I dislike getting tickets for "stupid" things, it really is a crap shoot as to if it will be a problem in your area or not. Take the chance, or don't. Makes you really think about mods though, which is a good thing from my experience.
