why not refuse to open your "hood">? no smoke, no screaming baby; no probable cause.
Haha I wish I can say no and but there was like 3 cops there and I didn't want to be stupid and say no and get even more busted

sounds like what you got is called a fix-it ticket.if you leave it it will cost you a couple hunderd dlrs either paying the ticket or going to court.all you need to do is the the factory peices back on the car intake and taillights and find a cop tell him what happened and show him your car and fixed the problems that were written he will sign it off saying it was fixed and go to your local traffic court and it will be a 10.00 fee to process the paperwork.
it will have nothing to do with smogging you car next time,just a way for the city to make some money
Just so you know...anything from the air intake to the last O2 sensor is a smog related device. When I was a tech, we were encouraged to have a "smog license" even to change the oil of a car because the air cleaner had hoses going to the valve covers which were part of the "closed system" of the emissions schema and when you removed the oil filler cap, technically you were monkeying with the smog system because one of those hoses were connected to it - the other going to the PCV device. Now it wasn't enforced much if at all but that was the word when I was in the business.im assuming your "modified smog device" probably is an air intake that you installed on your car.
What most people dont get is that air intakes have nothing to do with emissions.
Or you can just say you have no idea what a modified smog device is, or claim you bought the car that way and didnt know that it was modified. Simple enough, if your ticket says you have a tail light cover, and you dont, you arent liable for it.

EPA/Automakers FTW; CARB/equiv FTL! If you didn't hear yet, Bush signed in the new CAFE standards from the EPA. Along for the ride with those was a new national emissions standard which denies individual state's rights to set higher emissions standards. So bye-bye CARB and equivalent (NY)... well, until they sue the crap outta the EPA till they get the rights back!
In other news, CAIs are (have been) illegal in Germany without paying an additional tax at the TUV, as are about every other aftermarket part on a car.
Uhh... can anyone say this in a better way that I can understand? I'm not really good with political stuff
The state laws are now considered trash. The bill which Bush passed will affect everyone.so is not going to effect anyone much?
I recall that a war was started over something like this about 150 years ago! Time to dust off the 10th Amendment.Along for the ride with those was a new national emissions standard which denies individual state's rights to set higher emissions standards.

LOL ..... I doubt there are 10 people on this site that have acutally read the constitution, and the bill of rights. A lot of folks think they know about it, but since school where they may have read part of it have never looked at it again. Ask most people what the first ammendment is about and you get the wrong answer. You are way down to #10.....lol not a chance....
AF
I'm still in school so they come easy to me. lol
Got my flash cards ready
