Was on my way home, got to my street and slightly drifted around the corner (Driving like a jackass is normal for me) droped it into third and hit 60 mph when out of the corner of my eye I see mr. 50. Im like FUCK! Because I just slid around the corner @ 40 and was doin 60 when I passed him and he was sitting there the intire time... So I abruptly use the New brakes and slow down and slowly pull in front of my house. He kicks on his lights and casualy rolls over, no siren. Walks up to my car and says "Hey, I noticed you got on it a little back there and you got my attention" I was grinning ear to ear because I knew I was fucked, I just looked at him and said "Ahh Yea, I was speeding" He just chucles and asks me to pop my hood looks around everything is cool (All carb legal) and after about 10 minutes of bullshiting he gives me a fix it ticket for my clear corners.
That was the coolest cop I ever met! He could have fucked me so many was its not funny! All he did was bullshit for abit and I talked about the 4 Over head cam 4.6L ford motor in his car and this went on for a while and I wont make you read anymore.... Point is, the clear corners are illegal!

Giving you tickets is cool? No tickets would have been much cooler.

Its a fucking fix it ticket man! All I gota do is put on some ambers and its all good! I dont even have to go to court. At that 60 MPH in a 25, loosing traction @ 40 mph around a turn... One of my corners is GONE, there is a big ass crack in my window. The front blinkers are disconected... there was so much shit he coulda fucked me on! :eek:

that's nice! the cops up here in my college town (moscow, id) told our fraternity one time that basically if you don't draw attention to yourself they could really give less of a fuck because they have so much other shit to do. did they have the newer Ford Crown Vic with the 388? a guy in my frat drives one of the auctioned off cop cars... it is the older chevy caprice that still had the vette motor (LS1? LT1?). That thing is a BEAST!

So cant u put in the phillips Silvatec bulbs?
the bulbs that look silver but light up orange, so you can keep your clears?

honesly i've never even heard of the bulbs... the best thing you can do is put orange tinted bulbs in them and most cops and inspection places won't say anything... just so they flash orange... that doesn't mean they can't though

Heres a link of the bulbs i was on about, most of the perfectionists use em coz they still look silver even though they light up orange so u dont have the gay looking orange bulb in the light cluster.

That cop doesn't know what he's talkin about... the lens on the corners can be clear as long as the bulb is the correct color. It must flash White or Amber.... I got pulled over a month back for havin Blue bulbs in my corners & the cop told me what was legal & i put Ambers in & took it to the CHP station & the guy there wrote it off.
