Default Maryland inspection

I need a safety inspection in Maryland.
Montgomery country, Gaithersburg area.

I have a few little things that I dont want to take care of.....like tint and fog lights. Is there a place around here that doesn't really care about stoopid things?
Also, since my car has a 93, I believe they will hook it up to the sniffer for emissions. Will they look for longtubes if I got those installed?

My brother's Lt1 camaro had no problem passing inspection with near black tint. Also, VEIP won't even pop your hood when you do the emissions test. They'll do the gas cap test, hook up the sniffer (if you're pre-96) and pass or fail, off you go.

I took my car to get tested at the VEIP on 124, across from the airport. I have longtubes, ory, and lm catback. I told the guy that it would not go over the rollers to do the computer test because it was to low and it would scrape. He looked under the car, and told me to go inside and tell the guy the same thing. The guy inside wrote me a passing emmisions ticket for the next 2 years, and two years from now, I can go back with that same peice of paper and get another one for another 2 years. Better yet, the didnt even charge me for it.

I just asked him, and he told me he tinted the windows himself an hour after the inspection. I didn't see it until the next day when it was already inspected. My Bad!
