Aftermarket exhausts are not illegal. I suggest you read the actual law.

It sucks. But all i know is that in the Spotsylvania area and Fredericksburg area. There is a meet that goes on once a week called REVex. and the new sherif thats running now supports it full on, and ive talked to the guy who runs REVex and he said that its a possibility that he would talk to all of cops here, not state troopers. but to allow aftermarket exhausts and suspension and lighting on almost a normal basis but deffinately to and from the meets. its pretty legit
Cause a pastor is gonna be able to change the laws for neons and fart cans.

fuck yeah.
