Little known fact. License plates are designed to reflect the 904 nm light range so that lidar can accurately reflect the beam without major dispersion of the beam. Take a block of 220 grit sandpaper and sand the layer of reflective paint off....reinstall the plate and park your car next to someone way down the street and hit the plates with a green laser beam and be amazed at the difference. Every little bit helps

Agreed…. plus the minute they realize you have a CCW .. they realize it’s pretty hard to get that in Cali so you have to be a solid law abiding citizen to get it so they usually treat you better from there on…. But only if you’re in a gun friendly county. Bay Area cops are not huge fans of it.

Here in Texas I've had cops stare at my truck (no front plate and 15% front) Granted I follow the rest of the rules of the road so maybe that helps lol but not been pulled over in over 5 years

[@mrDmastr19]

I live in SoCal, I went through the is crap 15 years ago and sadly it’s just got worse. I finally gave up. I had a WRX in high school, I had mods I put a lot of hours in, I had cool tint the whole 9 yards. Back then probably still the same now, after the vehicle was 5 years old you had to have smog every 2 yearsThen I’d have to pull my mods, smog it, then if you get pulled over you have to have it inspected and remove it all again. Then they hit me with the front window tint. I finally gave up as the years went on. The amount of money and work you put into something and then your basically just walking into head ache after headache. And they know which cars and trucks to look for. If you Tinted a Honda Accord you’d probably never have an issue. I’ve just learned to accept, CA it’s not worth it anymore. I just drive a boring stock truck. With lame clear front windows. But I don’t have to deal with this fix it crap anymore. CA has its flaws no doubt. But overall I still don’t mind it enough to leave.
