90% of the time, they wont pull you over, however the time they do, its a big PITA as OAC_sparky pointed out. dealing with an officer, wasting your time and everything that goes a long with it, like a BS slap on the wrist ticket if your lucky.
ive been pulled over for a couple things in the past so i know how much of a PITA it is when they do pull you over. with my first exhaust i had a noise violation ticket, ive been pulled over for going through a yellow light FFS and ended up getting a invalid insurance slip ticket (expired a week prior). however none of the time i got a ticket for my lights which have always been 6000k and they have checked when doing these stops aswell.
just some food for thought. we arent going to sit here and preach what you should and shouldnt do, rather i would prefer to inform those who dont know which seems to be a majority in this thread. im not one to talk about illegal modifications as i run no cat, im to low, have a loud exhaust and likely more. at the end of the day its mostly how you drive. keep it low key and you wont get pulled, drive like a tool all the time and you will for sure
