Look into the Escort front/rear mounted SR-1

Anymore pics of your Cayenne? Looks hot with the blacked out wheels.

Don't you think you got pretty lucky rather than screwed? It seems pretty decent that "the pig" wrote the ticket from 105 down to 80. He could have tagged you for reckless driving, impounded your vehicle, taken you to jail, your auto insurance premiums would have sky-rocketed and you might have even lost your license. All in all, it sounds to me like you had a pretty good day relative to how it could have gone. Still, I am sorry to hear about the ticket.

haha, I have a ticket that shows that I was doing 115/70 and that pig reduced it from 130 to 115, because 115 is the limit for reckless driving, above 115=jail

HPD OR constable? Just get an attorney and fix the ticket.

"constant trouble". Joe-you think its better to take the defensive online, or to let an attorney handle it?

let the attorneys handle it, they know people at the court, they can convert it to some kind of silly ticket or even cancel it. If there is a point system in TX, an attorney is a must have! Even though I sue the cop every time I get a ticket, I still have 9 pts on my record (12 is when they suspend your license), if I didn't sue them, I'd have 19pts today

Yes, you can use the K40 diffuser by itself.
