Hmmmm... with Laws like this, is it no wonder...
... that there are RUMORS of those that may find ways to get around them?
I bet the number of un-registered and uninsured cars in the state of Californica exceeds the entire population of cars in the three states it borders. I further betcha if we got rid of those cars our air quality would benefit 1,000,000 times more than enforcing some stupid sticker on one cat over another on a handful of older cars.

Cat isssue is not that bad actually.
You can read about the actual Cat rules here:
http://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aftermktcat/aftermktcat.htm
Basically replacement cats must have a warranty for 50,000 miles and be certified to offer results for that period. Also selling used cats is forbidden. Magnaflow offers two cats to fit the X19. Here is there application list:

Of course a freind of a friend is also a good way too.

It's all about getting "old" cars off the road
If they were serious about emissions, a single emission standard would be in place rather than variable requirements for a given vehicle.
Set uniform standards for all cars and have no regard for how these requirements are met. This would be simple, and more effective IMO.
