Based on the information we're getting here. We have people who obviously deserves the VI (let's not count those), but then we have those who are being punished with an unnecessary VI fee for being within specification. This may or may not create a financial burden to the individuals while they did nothing wrong.
I get that you are playing the devils advocate and that's fine; however, this is from an enforcement background that I have and I firmly believe that this crack-down on EVERY sportscar that looks remotely modified/sporty is due to officer's lack of sound judgement. There is the law, there is the departmental policies and procedures, and then there is the officer's discretion.
The only way we can overcome this is by making noise for those who are innocent. Let them know that this officer is targeting/generalizing and harassing a group of harmless tuners... Even after a successful inspection pass, officer can still scratch off your decal and have you redo it again... Talk about over-power!... Power trip?
Oh, and there's no recourse or anyway to dispute this type of "violation"...
