They have the option to eyeball it and give you the ticket, but if you are irritating them, they can keep you on the side of the road "measuring" from every angle for hours.
I'm pretty sure that they have to measure it if they want to ticket you for it, similar to window tint. If they don't, then you can make a claim in court that they never measured, unless you confessed something during the stop, but this discussion has gone completely off the rails.

Q: How can I make my fog lamp dimmer?

A: Dimmer bulbs, tint the exterior, get the EVO-R instead of the OEM

All the rest of this has been tangential to the actual purpose of the thread.
