It's unlikely they'll stop a benz and ask to look under the hood unless they you give them a really good reason to.
Mostly they love to harass those 'fast and furious' looking folks. (Honda)
I saw on TV they were measuring the height of the headlights to the road...
not a benz in sight.
I've been pulled over for speeding a few times, and even the insurance company saw my car...
they didn't notice anything...stealth baby, stealth. Don't go too low, too loud, too dark, or too fast.

lol ya, most cops could care less about the specs under the hood...they got better things to do with their time like write you your fat speeding ticket and get back to catching someone else!

and ya I'm gonna keep my car registered in florida most likely then b/c they dont do emissions inspections!

Mann this sucks, such a great deal and I cannot get it. =[ Dad's being a ***** about it. And cannot pull out $650 from my account secretly, he's going to find out.

I see one solution to my dilemma: start slanging (selling) massive amounts crack-cocaine.

In the light of the deal on these headers, and the deals of the Pulley Kit posted by members on this forum...I scheduled an appointment with an employee at my bank to sit down and discuss the cash advance.
