looking to get car inspected, lenient inspector needed

My cars inspection runs out this month and trying to get it passed except i have my tail lights tinted in the rear. They emit light, just anything tinted fails according to an inspector at the local gas station. Anyone know anyone who will pass it? Everything else if good to go.

might be a better idea to swap tail lights with someone for some cash.

If you have an E90, you may be in luck. I'm looking to put on a set of black lines and will have stock tail lights available soon. If you're interested, let me know.

Not a good thing to do, if Va police stops you he will ask for the pink slip from the inspector station and that facility can lose there Va inspectors license.
