Bro...! My friend drives a toyota corolla! He put some makhfii on tail lights. But when he passed the car, the failed it. He removed it and then passed the car. But after passing, he again made them black and was stopped by the sharjah cops and isseud a fine! So, Please don't do it unless you have what we call "Wasta"! (Y)

Then you mention u didn't have money to change the suspension so sold it?

I'm really confused.

Either you had some aftermarket suspension which made the car sit low or the stock shocks were blown or the springs cut to make it sit low hence they impounded it?
Yoo listen up! I bought the car from an emarati in Dubai. The suspension wasn't stock! Also there was a gap of 4 fingers between the Tyre and the fender. I don't think it was too low! And yeah! What i saved to put angel eyes on my car, wasted in paying fines! So, sold it, bcz had no money! Here's a picture to get the idea!

Gap looks much more like 2 finger rather then 4 fingers.. :grin:
Sorry to hear about your experience.. Sad to see a GS go to waste

I would've just kept the car parked for a month or two until I could pay for the repairs, anyways be careful from now of what you buy.. next time make sure its all stock! :smile:

I see.

However as harsh as it sounds I have no sympathy for the op. He got his dad to buy him a car that is slightly modified for a young person. Op straight away gets into trouble with the police. Dad says I don't need the crap and sells the car.

Next time if you don't want your car sold, do the hard earned work yourself, save and buy a car you want that your old man cant sell on you.

So all in all he punished you for getting it on with the cops :arrow:

If it was your own car...that wouldn't have happened

All i hear is sad stories like this :( I'm just starting to modify my car, just got some projectors shipped from the US and installing them myself and I hear horror stories from Sharjah. I go to AUS and I really go around where this sharjah cops are, all the time.

Hope I don't get screwed. :arrow:

Me too. I am a student at AUS but the cops at both gates never stopped me! They will never stop you unless your car looks suspicious from outside! I have a friend who drives an altima (white car with black hood). He installed exhaust system along with cold air intake! he was stopped at the main University City gate and his car was impounded but he had a wasta! he got it back!
