Box 2 in a slightly lowered rhd Subaru Legacy, on Kingsway. Aftermarket muffler that is very quiet compared to most Subaru's (came on the car). They pulled over a Mustang right after. Skyline pulled over around the corner on Boundary, flatbed already on site.
Pic for reference, we were on our way to wash it

Owner here:
I got pulled over for 'apparent mods' at about Kingsway/Knight
Was not ticketed or fined but given a Box 2 for:
- Full inspection of safety systems & meets OEM standard (Officer questioned my OEM Momo steering wheel as being aftermarket and not having an airbag)
- I had a copy of the 2013 Provincial inspection with the windshield decal adhered to the back which was expired (& moot by this point, but..) as the expired decal was not on the windshield that had since been replaced, that's illegal
- Aftermarket exhaust (Muffler only that came on the car & honestly one of the quietest ones I've heard)
- Check all exterior lights/reflectors for DOT markings (All are present and officer stated couldn't see in the light as was dark)
- Ride height (Doesn't believe that there's 1" of clearance between tires and fender)
- Front mounted license place is angled (True, can adjust to correct)
I've owned the car for 5 years and 3 days since it was imported in 2013. I've also been pulled over in Victoria where I'm from originally and never had an issue with the same mods. The car also has stock size winter snow tires on currently.
I don't have a photo on current winters, but as you can see the gap really isn't so questionable that they could see from so far away (me thinks).
