In Cali you just velco/ zip tie a plate on, find a cop or take it to a station, they look at it and sign it off, you send in the paperwork and done.

On my citation it says i can pay $48 or fight it in court on a week day. So basicly it will cost me either way

ok, rant over. anyone win this fight in court btw? I'm thinking pay it and stick the plate in the window when i park it

California requires a $25 'fix it' fee or something, but velcro/ziptie is still not allowed. It has to be properly mounted on your front bumper.

Weirdest thing just happened to me...

I was at Nordstrom Rack in Northgate for a quick second exchanging some pants. I parked out in BFE, as I always do. Was maybe in the store for 10 min. When I was walking back out towards my car I noticed a couple dudes in a grey speeding by on the main road outside the parking lot. They took the corner quick into the mall parking lot. I started my car and went to leave. As I went towards the exit they rounded the corner coming towards me and ended up in my lane completely and then swerved back and yelled at me asking me to stop. I didnt stop, I just boosted it outta there. Lol

Once I was back on the freeway, I thought, oh ****... Maybe they saw someone hit or vandalize my car or something and were trying to warn me. Without speeding too fast, I hightailed it back to work and did a full walk around on my car and didnt notice anything except its super dirty.

****ing weird.

I spent some time in Miami in the '90s, and the guy my mom and step dad worked for basically told us that if, while we're driving around some people step out in the road as if to block us, to not stop. So yeah, +1 to the drawing of said weapons

whats up guys Im new to the area--- Anyone got someone who is good with body work? Ive got a quarter sized dent in my trunk--Its not a sharp dent it looks like maybe it can be pulled.

Also, How do you guys pass inspection up here? I dont have a cat, but my car doesnt throw a CEL, If I have autozone plug into my obd2 port and they dont see anything, am I good to go get a state inspection? Or will they do a sniff test?

Don't think they sniff for the Evo 8/9 model years, just OBD. If you don't throw any codes I'd say you're fine.
