warning ticket 1 hr after exhaust install :(

my man, dennis, put on the remus race exhaust today, it took him an hr, fairly easy job for him. I left his place around 730, got back to centreville around 8, got pulled over right by giant. lol

cop asked if the exhaust was stock, i said yea.......then he checked my front, said i need a plate there...i told him i will get that taken care of at the dealer asap. left with a warning ticket.

I don't even know where my front plate is so I can't do the "I just washed my car method"

I got one too in PG county once. He pulled me over for nothing really...then said I didn't have a front tag when he was behind me at 1st when he saw me initially...so how did he know about the missing front tag? X-ray vision? LOL Consider it the cost of keeping a clean front bumper!

Yea, I got a warning within a week of being in VA for not putting the front plate on, so I just bit the bullet and put it on. Sucks, but oh well, at least they can't grab me for that again (until they find another stupid reason to pull me over).

i've been driving around without a front plate since 2008
been caught once
took a picture with the plate mounted to the judge
paid the feee
then promptly took it off again
now i travel with my front plate attached to the front tow hook mount in the trunk
so when i get pulled over i can say oops i forgot to attach it when i washed my car, and i can install it then and there (i have the 19mm socket on a wrench in thr trunk)
only negative is my car has to be clean all the time to pull that off

Just out of curiosity: which tow hook mount are you using? I'm waiting on my order to arrive from Rho-plate. I ordered it a week ago, but Vancouver is awfully far away...

At least it was just a warning! That was awfully quick of them, though.

cops do that all the time, if you have sporty cars.

I was stopped on my s2k and he asked me the same thing. Is this aftermarket exhaust? do you have turbo(s) in it? etc.
