Safety Inspection Question

Hey ya guys and gals, so my car's gonna be coming in soon and I was thinking about the safety inspection and recon and da kine.
I have a 2002 WRX, only mods are 17 in. wheels, Greddy Ti-C, and an S202 wing. (Please see photo)

So,
1.) Will I need recon?
And if so,
2.) Where can I get a safety inspection done in Town without getting recon? In other words, where in Town could I get a "mod-friendly" safety inspection done?

And the last question:
3.) Does anyone know a hapa chick from Kanehohe named Andrea H.? She wen' Iolani, c/o '01. (No, I'm not a stalker...)

Mahalo!

Just get recon and pay the usual $15 for safety, that way you do not have to worry about the police.

w00t! Safety inspection DONE! Just need to reregister to HI plates and I have PASSED!
Called recon directly earlier in the day and talked to one of the techs; he was really cool and answered all my questions in a straightforward fashion. He stated that with the mods I told him about, I didn't need recon and could just go get a safety inspection.

So to anyone in doubt: just friggin' call recon and settle it one way or the other. Yay!
