Got A Yellow Sticker

[HIPSI]

Hey all as the topic says got pulled over this afternoon and copped a yellow for my GT wing....

Was to be expected really, but I did say I would leave it on until I got one..haha

Anyway don't bother turning this into a cop bashing thread as to be honest they (yes all three) were quite decent with me and my car.

But more to the point I need to borrow some standard rubber pads that go over your pedals. As I only got my yellow for the GT wing but am guessing they might pick on other stuff also, the aftermarket pedals being the only real stand out.. Let me know if this is not the case.

So if anyone has some spare just sitting around...would appreciate a lend so I can take it over

[mitchy_]

what are the pedals like?

if they have some form of rubber to aid grip, they should be fine.

nor can they be too close together.

i have a lovely set of (expensive) razo ones that came with my car, all metal however, so illegal

they are very good to drive with too

poor guy, i think i seen your car, wing looks hawt.

[HIPSI]

I wouldn't say they are very close together, and they do have a rubber bits on them, but I still rekon they will pick on them. Also have an aftermarket diff which they might not like if they need to take it for a drive...

Yellow stickers are a bit of the suck. They're the reason I went from vintage cars to skylines. Best decision ever!

[AlphA]

Ahhhh stickers suck..

But it was worth it wasn't it? You made it to my shop and got the 19" widescreen.

Hehehe

How is the monitor anyway?

[HIPSI]

Yeah monitor is fantastic... cheers Alpha..

Do you need to book a time to take your car over the pits or just rock up??? Need to go to Welshpool as it is the closest to work..

First sticker in 4 years since I started driving Skylines so I am not doing to bad..

[Shayde]

Some pits are better than hours. I suggest you try and find someone who knows which are more lenient. I *did* know, but.. it's been too long now to recite them accurately.

[Baz]

Go to welshpool pits.. they are by far the best

[_8OO5TED_]

Welshpool for the win

guys at that pit actually own imports and dont mind checking out other imports.

[HIPSI]

Yeah cheers guys, welshpool will be were I am going. Don't think it will be a large issue as the car is pretty standard mechanically..

[HIPSI]

All done.... Took the car over this morning, yellow is gone.

[EVL R33]

So is the GT wing back on yet????

[JUNR34]

You really want to put the GT wing back on again HIPSI? ahaha wasnt it you that got done many times in the past?

[HIPSI]

I think it will be staying off for a while But it just doesn't look the same without it

This is the first yellow I have ever had out of my collection of imports over the years....which is saying alot...

[Tofu]

It is indeed not a bad run of luck. Did you ever get the "Random license and vehicle Inspection" with your cars?

Hope my luck is the same as yours.

Haha my bad thought it was you that had heaps of yellows from the Twing, yeah thats probaly a good idea cause they are like baits for the cops.

[HIPSI]

Only ever been pulled over once and that was on a cruise about a year ago. Other than that always slipped under the radar so to speak...

Junr34 I think it might be GTSTVSPEC you are thinking of...heard he has had around 7-8 yellows from the wing....poor bugger.

[Tofu]

Just the wing? hahahahah i would of learnt after the 3rd maybe 4rth

[HIPSI]

I am sure it was a combination of things, but the wing would have to be the draw card for sure..
