Funny you should say that as CHP has left me alone on my frequent trips to San Diego and Long Beach. Local cops however were staking out La Brea just north of Wilshire Blvd and got me and bunch of other people for tint and tag fix it tickets.

I got a tint ticket in HB...cost me ~$200 (to remove, signoff, and reinstall)....pain in the *** - yes...worth moving, no...
