I just don't like taking the bumper off when I have to clean the filter, and the short ram just working fine sound&performance wise, so I am happy with the short-ram.

But of course it is really a personal preference...

Regarding the red-light ticket, are you sure you were at the middle of the intersection during the light change??? If so, they can't give you a ticket because of that...
Yeah, I guess 4hp doesn't mean much when you drive a Prius.

damn dude sorry to hear about the ticket.

did you get demerit points from it? what is it.. like 3 for a red light? not sure if running and rolling through one is the same thing though.

if so, for sure you gotta ex-copper and get rid of that crap. it'll cost you like double the $300 prolly, but the hit to your insurance will be worse

no dude, consider Prius has 4hp, add another 4hp is a 100% gain!!!!

But no matter they have 4hp or 8hp, they will still try to race you....

Sounds good. I'll be pulling them off the car at the end of October. I only drive the car once a week, if that. So they won't see too much more use. I'll take pics of them once they're off.

umm i would upload it except its 1.2GB file. you dont have to worry about the licence plates we were driving away form the sunset for the most part so all you see is white reflections off the license plates. I can convert it to some reduced quality file and upload it to youtube if you want to watch it? its nothing special really. my GO PRo doesn't get a great view plus theres alot of traffic so you berelly see the Zs, its usually just ben driving ahead of me, and the occasional white convertible in the lane next to me

So enlighten me. Why do people worry about license plates? I see so many people who blank them out in pictures and I never really understood why. The only reason I could even remotely contemplate is that people will "run" your plate and find out where you live. But unless you work for the Ministry, or you're a Cop, how the heck could you ever do that?

its mostly for reporting reasons. Someone can see the image/video the person posted and if its say you doing stuff not exactly in the limits of the law, they can report you, in which case you can either get a letter from the ministry which is just a slap on the hand or you can actually get a ticket for it. I've read cases where some kid was boosting about how he was doing 120km/h in a 40km/h residential area on some forum, and just based on that and no other evidence he got his licence suspended and had to pay a substantial fine.

So to really answer your question ppl cover them up for safety reasons not cuz you are doing something bad in the image/video you are posting but just so that tards dont get the opportunity to create head aches for you. Me personally i really dont care so i just post my pictures with my license plate uncovered.

Have a good time. Hopefully it's a good turn out. It's bloody cold outside today.

oh man import expo was a total shitfest. terrible cars, it rained, it wasn't free. only plus side was there were tons of booty short clad girls, but even that got old after the first 15-20 asses. was nice catching up with old friends tho.

but just saying, be glad you didnt go.
