Wdup guys~ just a random question.
Any of u guyz gettin some attention from the cops
for ur exterior looks?
plannin to get a CF hood
and thinking what to do. Live in CA
so u guys kno what i mean.

 

anytime you put something on your car that draws attention obviously the cops will look twice at your car over a regular car driving next to you....

 

ah~ agree haha
dam~~~~~what to do what to do

 

buy its not like is illegal, as long as your not a drug deale no worries....

I just know when the cops around me see cars like mine they profile right away...

but as long as your clean, no worries

 

Just make sure they can't tag for anything stupid and you should be okay if your gonna let that be a deterrent from getting a cf hood then you might as well leave your car stock.

 

i kno that for sure haha
just living in CA makes everything seem illegal

 

Then you're going to love this.... install hood pins. If in the event you get pulled over, they may try to ticket you for not having your hood properly secured; I've heard of that happening twice when I lived there.

 

so have the hood pins installed eh?
got ya. There's just a small spot on the hood
dat needs to be re-clearcoated so iss pretty cheap to get and i don't want to miss the chance. might get it

 

op heres a suggestion on what to do...use semi-proper english geez lol

 

sorry about that haha

 

well i have never been pulled over for driving with a cf hood. im around cops all the time in the city of torrance ,LA , even the oc where they profile you more than half the time.

 

hid lights, yellow fogs maybe cop magnets but not the cf hood.

 

great great. good to hear from someone in LA sayin that. kind of a relief haha

 

there you go bud it was tough reading your post. on another note, anytime you modify your car, you attract more attention good or bad. police are just looking for you to do something wrong!

 

man. i was scared last night when cops were passing by b/c i have an exhaust that's pretty loud for an axleback. I just stopped my car to the side haha

 

Could always paint it. Then you get the benefits of a lighter, CF hood without that attracting of attention.

 

axle backs usually are not that loud...

 

Unless you plan on racing, there would be no logical reason to do this. Spend all the money on a CF hood, then pay to paint it, just doesnt make sense to me.

Cops have never gave me crap about my hood, in fact a couple have actually complimented me about it.

 

Um... sleeper? Not an attention *****? Profiling cops? Just saying if someone is THAT worried about it attracting unwanted attention, just paint it. Then you get the benefit of the weight reduction while looking stock. But then I guess you wouldn't be able to show off that super awesome CF hood though...

 

i live in the OC 3/4ths of the year, and i dont ever get any attention from cops. i drive by them all the time, stop next to them at the lights, follow them, etc, they never give me a 2nd look. just dont call attention to yourself like "racing" or having an extremely loud exhaust setup...youll be fine.
