4.5 years and 60k miles here without a front plate, been pulled over once for speeding and never a mention about it, the cop spent more time asking about the car than writing up the ticket because he liked it and it was in 2013 when they were still new.

Any basis to your presumptions or are you just assuming? Generally every "got pulled over" thread I've read about in California came with a non-emissions moving violation, emissions gets added on after the fact as a bonus because a lot of "enthusiasts" are **** heads.

Edit: Sorry, there's a lot of things I don't mind people trashing, but emissions laws and the idea that California is some sort of fascist state where big brother is watching are two things that irk me. I'll pull the ripcord now, I'm out.

For a parting shot: Hey at least I don't live in a place that forces you to pay for annual checks to your ride height, tire wear, or alignment for compliance to local regulations while they hunt for non-approved aftermarket parts.
