its only illegal if your driving with them on...tho its gay as hell...its not illegal and im sure the dealership has a disclaimer on it somewhere

here is his [url="https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/showthread.php?t=103547&page=1&pp=15"]]thread were everthing about the law have been covered. Even do it has come off the factory it still can be illegal, basically it's how judge/cop interpets the law and it can be different from the way mistubishi interpeted the law.

anything manufactured by an automobile company must be 50 state legal. What dealerships do after that, doesn't have to be legal. So take out the owners manual or sticker and show the cop.

and cop will say" here is your ticket, here on this ticket it says the day when you can go to court and fight this ticket, and what you just told me you can tell it to the judge, have a good day" Basically the owner manual mean nothing it all depends how you interpet the law.

everyone wants to fight this.
fact of the matter is it can be illegal even if the car is sold stock like that.
in CA its illegal to not have a muffler yet srt-4's have NO MUFFLER.

and yes, what do you know, they can get ticketed for it.

Wow, thanks for the interest. Grandma talked him out of giving me a ticket.

But, my question is does a Lancer trunk fit an Evo?

Sweet, then I can try out my new road rage cards. And my court date is in 7 days.

Vittiorio I told you about my ticket a few months ago.
