I don't see how they can give you a ticket for your car being low, is that actually a law?

Either way, your car looks awesome!

It is definitely a valid ticket because a cop wrote up a citation along w/ a couple others on my last car. It was a simply fix-it ticket but still a $10 fine. He and his buddy brough out the tape measure and measured out from the middle of my headlight to the ground..lovely. They figure there is a danger of the tire blowing out and you causing an accident so its not street-safe..

I love the highway patrol.

I'm pretty sure he's on air..I don't know of any manufacturer for coilovers makes a product that will allow THAT much of a drop. If anything he's on air runners or something of the like.

thanks guys for the responses

actually the reason the cop gave me a ticket was because there was a crowd of people checking out my car in the parking lot. the cop rolled by and was like "whos car is this" then everyone pointed to me and i was like not even anywhere near my car. cop calls me over and was like let me get your license and registration. makes me pop my hood. i tell the cop i dont have plates cause its a "new car" but in reality its almost a year old lol. then he gets pissed cause i lied and he gave me a fix it ticket for my car being dangerous to drive on the street. he was trying to give me a ticket for my brakes but another cop told him he couldnt do that in the end he didnt even give me a fix it for not having plates which is one of the reasons he harassed me.

i dont mind the ticket...my bro is in chp so i just got it signed off right when i got home
