Default Need help in San Luis Obispo Area

I got a ticket today for having tinted windows, tinted tail lights and modifications to the emission system ( I have LG streets and no cats). I can take care of the window and tail light tint myself rather easily but on the headers, I really need some help. If anyone has stock manifolds and a stock H pipe lying around that I could borrow or buy that would be great. Thanks!

That sucks, how did they find out you have no cats?

It was pretty weird actually the officer came up to my window said, grab your license, registration, insurance, pop your hood and come out here. Then as he was looking under the hood asked if I had the carb sticker for the headers and I told him no, and he got down on the ground with his maglite and looked under the car and asked where the cats were, and I told him they were going to get put on this week and he said that wasn't good enough and wrote me up.

What a jackass cop. Is your car real loud? I have stock headers and H pipe w/ cats that I want to hold on to.....but if you dont find anything else lmk and I'll let you borrow them. Im wondering why the cop would be so interested to inspect your car for no apparent reason?

My car isn't too loud and I was just cruising down the freeway, but this cop definitely knew what he was doing. There was no hesitation when he looked at my headers and under the car.
