Hi. I recently was pulled over for a 35 in a 25 (yea i know it was dumb. I couldnt see my speedo cause my lights burned out)

But anyway. The cop didnt hear my exhaust because I was coasting and he was coming from the opposite direction that I was. He clocked me coming towards him. He turned around and pulled me. He then looked around my car and said my exhaust was illegal. It isnt loud at all. Is there any way to fight this? I just dont think that having a muffler that looks loud is a reason to give someone a ticket.

I even bought a silencer for it. Its dead quiet.


Any tips on how I can get out of this? I really dont want to replace my exhaust.
