Things that generally fly: facelift parts within same generation, oem installed accessory from when it was new, reproduced original parts
Things you can generally claim on the application sheet without them asking about
: next generation wheels typically within 2 years (mine are 1993 wheels on a 1988, that was totally fine), 1 diameter increase in wheel size
Things you can generally claim on the application sheet that they might ask about but still pass if you have a good explanation: suspension mods that are or replicate higher trim oem specs. so something like trd springs for a toyota, but you could also do eibach springs which also do only a 1" drop. newer oem radio (ie. say a 2000s corolla double din in a 1991 mr2), aftermarket wheels that are "era-correct" (ie. og TE37 for your 90s car would work, but TE37SL would likely not)
Things they don't like: tint, dirty or worn carpets/seats, aftermarket radios, decals other than car clubs, saggy headliners,
