Lowered Vette question?

Don't know if I am even going to lower the Z yet, but random concern for this summers up coming inspection. I would assume I would pass or do they harass you about lowered vehicles?

Thanks.

Why not take it to a private inspection station - then you won't have to worry about it at all.

I don't know if you've decided who will do the suspension work for you yet, but if you look for one that is also an inspection station, you should be set.

Good thought. Thanks for the info. Just thought I'd check.

I'm lowered and although the mv girl inspecting me was wavin' her arms all around and trying to get her toe under my air dam, some other badges came over and showed her that the "black thing" in question was rubber and designed that way. I've never had any problems with the Vette at inspection. I'm thinkin' her hormones were shorted out or something. Now an ACI chin spoiler might have been some trouble, but at my ride height that would not be advisable anyhow.
