Going for your recon Roy, good luck!
I remember someone telling me that you had to make appointments at recon. Looks like I slid right in just before the appointment thing.

Sucks A$$
To me it is a waste of money. The crap they cite for is stupid. If the stuff is illegal than make it illegal. Why make people pay more money to put things on their cars. Doesnt hurt the roads, doesnt affect other peoples safety if it did than what is the purpose of the safety check? Just a way for the state to get more money out of the tuner community. I have never cited for recon. (Not that where I work I get a chance to that often.) I would only for no front license plate and tint (officer safety issue).
(Only my personal opinion and does not reflect the views of other law enforcement individuals) Sorry had to add the disclaimer. :banana:

that'd be cool, that way we all can get it done at one time, and treat your friend to lunch or something...

IMO car enthusiasts keep their cars in MUCH better road-worthy conditions than the average joe. I don't know why they gotta be hating on us so much.
