Default Places in the Alhambra/East LA area to get fix-it-ticket signed off

Long story short, I got a fix it ticket for my car being to low. Need to get it signed off by Thursday and have no clue where to get that done. Prefer somewhere in the East LA/San Gabriel Valley areas.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks in advance

Once fixed, you can get it signed off at any police station.

I always go to the Temple City Sheriff Station on Las Tunas, right near Rosemead blvd. They are always super nice to me and never charge me for an inspection fee

I've been there at least 4 times for my integra in the last 6 years, and I was just there about a month ago for a front plate fix-it on my IS I've dealt with different people each time and they were all really really nice Highly recommend!

Yeah I looked that up already, its the exact VC i got on the ticket. No part of my car is lower than the lowest point of my rim with no tire. My headlight source is even right at the legal minimum of 22"

you know you have to raise your car up to legal height then they will sign it off...

It is legal, center of the headlight is right at 22" (CVC 24400) and no portion of my car is lower then the lowest point of my rims(CVC 24008 and what I was cited for.)

It has been years since I've been to that CHP office but, it's in a low-traffic area so you would be free to take your time with the using the whole driveway getting in.

Actually, the one in Temple City is kind of steep-- I had to remove my front lip on my integra to get in without scraping, but on the IS I was fine (granted, all I have on the IS is the f-sport "lip kit" if you can even call it that, and tein s techs, whereas the integra is lowered on tein coilovers and has a thick mugen styled lip). It's low traffic most of the time, so you could take your time on the driveway, but still with much caution!

Yeah I grew up not far from there so I know the area, just never actually went to the CHP office before

Thank you for your due diligence




Ticket is signed off! I went to the CHP in East LA since it was so close, the driveway wasn't bad at all. The CHP officer just looked at my car and laughed at the ticket as he signed it off
