Default Safety Problems

Hello all. Ive been here for 2 years now with no issues getting my safety. I drive an AP2 on lowering springs with an intake but this year I'm having one hell of a time. First attempt and I was flagged for window tent, tires, and a need for recon. I paid for the $170 "recon" alignment, passed recon, and bought new tires (admittedly I was do for new tires). I went back and still couldn't pass because of the my tent. Rather than pay the $100 to have my tent removed, I took the car to the place I've done it for the last two years and even though my failed safety wasn't put in the system to give them a heads up, they still failed me for tent. I know no one can outright say who is more lenient on the forums here but if anyone knows someone, shoot me a PM please. I'm trying not to remove my tent as this is the last safety I will have to do. I'm more than willing to just risk getting a ticket for the last 8 months I'm here but the inspectors said my car can't be shipped off island with expired safety... Probably not true but I don't want to find out when it's time to move and jump through hoops then.

only thing you can do i go top down and hope they don't test your tint if it's illegal.

Your best bet is to try another location. If you are trying to get a "hook up" some people charge up to 150$ for safety.
