Default How to create the ultimate stealth Z!!??

With the current economic conditions cities and towns all across America have dramatically increased police surveillance. Violations are now being agressively pursued. With that in mind I am looking to create the ultimate stealth Z that will be able to combat this phenomenon. What do you think should be included??

I currently have:

Valentine V1
Flip down license plate holder
Blinder Laser detector

Looking to purchase:

CB Radio
Police scanner
IR camera (for nite driving w/o lights)
Custom kill switches ( kill all lights while driving, etc)


I take these threats very seriously as a ticket now not only affects your license, but your insurance WILL increase. So...what do you think??

I have a V1 and no issues, Texas requires a front plate but I take the risk. A no plate ticket is a fix it ticket so no record usually recorded you just pay the fine.
I would invest in a blinder, but where I live currently most cops either roll around with K or Ka always on or will try to instant on attack which still fails. The other stuff seems like a bit of a waste overall, it would be "nice" but not worth the money.

I have a lot of tickets on my record and my insurance has never increased because of it.


But to be honest, with things like flip down plates, driving without lights and custom kill switches you sound like you are looking to rob a bank or do something much worse than speeding.

What kind of driving do you do?!

I have an escort Passport and simply keep my eyes on all three mirrors, that's it.

Things like Flip down license plate holder , IR camera (for nite driving w/o lights) or Custom kill switches ( kill all lights while driving, etc) I'm not so sure about.... .. Are you running from the cop constantly?

I think you should sell the car, and invest in one of these.

This depends on your state. In MA your insurance rate is tied directly to your license points, as well as the typical age, location etc.

Just drive within the speed limits. It's a lot less hassle.

Sounds like he is a transporter.
But even a transporter follows the rules of the road until of course you break one of your rules and look what is in the package.

Can someone explain to me what's a custom kill switch? Can't you just turn the lights off by turning the headlight switch (and dimming the interior light to the lowest)?

Search Google for stealth Audi R8, should get what I am thinking of.
This project what he has described has been done with the R8, plus more, and it is nice but no real world use. The kill switch kills all lights on the interior/exterior and many other items.

Keep the V1, replace the Blinder with an Interceptor and forget about all the other junk.

If you want to increase your changes of not getting hit with the laser, get a matte black wrap and add veil to your lights and license plate. Added bonus is that if it doesn't work, your car will at least look sick!
