Cost of the Vehicle License Fee cut...$14 billion.
Guess we're paying at the courthouse instead of the DMV.

Cost of rental of the infamous mudball is one pound of bacon per day.


Damage to said vehicle is payable in pork products (alive or dead) as well.

Rob -

Just looked through my parts bin and I have a perfect solution. Dead stock mudflap, complete with license plate mount and all reflectors. I'll PM you my number. Call me and I can talk you through it.

Thanks for all the offers.

Tonight I cut a square out of the underneath of the Brake lens and put a clear piece of plastic. I also bent the license plate forward a bit even though it was clearly visible before  Undecided

The last thing I will do this weekend is put a red reflector right below the license plate bracket. That surely should pass my fix it ticket  Undecided

What do you think guys  Huh?

So here are the pictures.

I bent the plate down even more even though it was clearly visible and put 4 reflectors on it.
After looking at it even though I can tell the first number is a 1 and the second number is a 7 but I am sure some cop was going to complain about not being able to read it.



So I removed 2 of the bottom reflectors.



Last but not least I cut a window out of the plastic lens and put a clear peice of plastic to cover it with.



You guys think this is good enough to pass the fix it ticket  Huh?

Probably depends on the mood of the person doing the inspection. But it should be fine.

you know what chaps my hide

I walked by a police station the other day and they had 3 bikes parked in there on the walkway.
They looked to be peoples bikes that worked there and 2 of the 3 bikes were not legal in regards to what that San Jose cop thought  Undecided

Why can't they just pick on people who really are breaking the law  Huh?
