    Yeah you're sliders do stick out a bit. What I would suggest is maybe step on the sliders before getting in? Not sure how doable this is with a lift but that's what I do whenever I'm getting in something with them

    When I moved to CO my license was a CO license, 4Runner registered in CO and Camry registered in CA. I haven't been pulled over(knock on wood) since I lived in Flagstaff and my 350Z. I drive a lot slower now after that ticket.

    That's how I get into the 4Runner. The sliders will look better once I get the wider tires on it.

    Alright cool. I'm kinda partial to leaving the Firebird CA. Not sure why.

    I wonder if I could leave my front license plate off since in AZ that's legal. Would be nice not having to constantly bend it back into shape after grenading a puddle
    Sounds like a good plan :thumbsup

    I hate having a front plate. CA and CO both require front plates :(

    Seriously. I wish I could do away with the Firebirds because they looks so much better without them but then I'd have ugly holes in my bumper

    Not to mention the 4runners always getting bent all kinds of ways

    When I get a new front bumper for the 4Runner I have to figure out what to do with the plate

    Hmm. Make a mount in the shape of a middle finger and attach it there. Then everyone will know how stupid you think that rule is haha

    I don't think I will get too much hassle where I live about the plate. Hell my license plate bulb has been out for almost a year and haven't been pulled over it for it yet. Which reminds me I need to order the LED replacement bulbs here soon.

    Oh too bad you didn't say anything. Superbright LEDs had a clearance sale the other week and they had small bulbs like that

    Lol that's one way to remember. I have to stay on top of that though because though a small town, the cops here are power hungry and will go after you for anything.

    Actually not really. They're assholes. I got pulled over because my running light wasn't working due to a little corrosion, but people get away with having headlights out all the time. Its bullshit

    There is like one police officer here per shift. That's not counting County or Highway Patrol but I hardly see a police officer.

    For me it depends where I go. If I stay on the north side of the lake I don't really see them. South side I do. Got busted one time doing 65 in a 40, something I used to do on a daily basis
