Inspection time, need help.

Does anyone know where I can go to get an inspection sticker in the Houston area? I have tinted lights and some other **** that just won't fly. It's my own damn fault, I know... Just need a point in the right direction. Please PM me with a good shop location and specifics.

Inspection? What, does the state inspect your vehicle annually or biannually to make sure there's nothing 'illegal' on it? That's f'd up!

Welcome to Driver Velix!

A monkey with a spray bottle could remove the tint on your lights, DIY might take all of 15 minutes! What other mods are you concerned about?

Back when I was in high school (1971) I had an MGB roadster that had a cracked tail light lens. I borrowed one from a girl I knew that had an MGC, got my sticker and gave it back. But, yes there are State Inspection centers that are more lenient than others. If you live in Harris, Dallas or Bexar Counties though, forget it.

My coils were cut with a grinder, to get low. I can just feel you guys cringe. Sorry, I'm just nasty like that. I've got no bumper reinforcement bar on the back, kit wouldn't fit with it. Also, my side markers on the front are shaved because the look of them displeased me.

I know that I'm G35ing all wrong, and was reluctant to reach out on these forums, but I'm an American damnit and it's my god given right to do stupid stuff to my car.

If someone could help me out ill promise not to put under glow and a fog machine under it.

I'll rent you my OEM springs if you want. Shoot me a deposit and shipping both ways and I'll refund the deposit when I get em back.
