blame the people who decide on the law, not the rcmp; they just enforce what they are told to enforce.
If you soupe your car up to that extent, you're gonna get a lot of compliments and spotted threads (lol) but u gotta be prepared for this kinda crap unfortunately once in a while!

And in 2004, stock STi's were being VI'd for "aftermarket" STi exhausts.

Is the body of your car lower than the lowest point of the rim?

I think I have heard that since there were multiple road-race related accidents back a few years ago that it has became a "political" issue.
Local MPs are turning down all sorts of illegal driving/street racing/aggressive driving behaviour/tinted windows/performance related mods,etc.
And richmond RCMP is just following their guidelines?
I don't know. It feels shitty for me.

ive got VI twice in 2 years
first time, it was a box 1 for not having a USDM spec front re-bar
second time, it was a box 2 for having a widen exhaust, no air bag, unauthorized HID
fixed everything, drive slowly with responsibility
I mean, the cops weren't picking on you or anything, they are just doing their job. if i am a cop without any responsibility, i would just let u go not even waste my time writing the ticket calling the tow truck company right...
you should read the guidelines or laws, see how much clearance you should have for your vehicle, have your vehicle inspected after fixing anything, and most importantly, (i know you will lower your car again), just lower the car or mod your car to an extent that they wouldn't give you an instant box 1..thats my experience

So how do you correctly measure whether your car is too low so a cop can't do anything if you can prove it on the spot?

off the top of my head the headlights must be above a certain minimum height, the tires cannot rub at full lock, and the lowest part of your bodywork must be higher than the lowest part of your rims.

but yes im with you on that, seems like its becoming more of a cash grab! | Totally agree with you. I HATE people with loud exhaust. Imagine some fuxkers who drove around in your neighborhood with a loud exhaust in the middle of the night... fxck.
If you do legal mods, cops will let you go.

Get some huge rims with low profile tires or lift the car back up.

And lift up the suspension by an inch.

Get some huge rims with low profile tires or lift the car back up. | see that's the part of the law that I find funny, it seems highly unlikely that the fiberglass lip and sideskirts would hold up the weight of the car should a tire blow and come off the rim doesn't it? but I guess saying that is a lot easier than figuring out what is metal and what isn't, and where the lowest point is (my frame comes a lot lower than my bodywork in places though, it's all kind of a weird system).

it's all for the name of safety anyway.

u DO NOT HAVE TO GO TO HONDA DEALERS !!
and they cannot force u to go because that's favorings the shop, and u can sue the cop for that....and i don't think they want to be investigated for taking a cut for VI's....like how they do under table cash deals with tow truck drivers....thats why they use rusty all the time.......i learn that in LAW class  Quote:

I got off with warnings as the DRLs are hooked up to the parking light (won't come on until the handbrake is released), exhaust tip too big (4") and excessive noise from the exhaust. | few weeks ??......rmd rcmp are always picking on little things ever since the very beginning, when that other cop died while dealing with street racers....it's no news

Used to run a tilted plate, got a warning ticket 
So I changed it up a bit so it wouldn't be so much of a hassle, it's a temporary solution till I find proper plate mounts
