Most products that are not CARB legal are blocked on a manufacturer and/or warehouse level for shipment to any person or business located within those states. You cannot get around this by "picking it up" as the products would not be allowed to even reside within the state by the manufacturer's guidelines of shipment.
Most people believe they can legally ship these products into the state and "only use them for off-road" however this is also an illegal use of the product within the state. The only guideline in which the product could be used and installed on a vehicle in the state of California is if the vehicle was being used on private property I.E. a race track AND that particular vehicle was not registered in the state of California for on-road use at all. This is basically limited to a non-registered race car vehicle being used exclusively on Private Property.
Some manufacturers will still ship products into the state even though the products are not approved CARB legal items. It is the end user's responsibility to fully research each part they are ordering in order to verify they are in full compliance with any and all emissions related state and federal laws. Wild Vettes, llc. assumes no liability for the shipment, the use, or legality of items being installed into an end user's vehicle. Do not assume because a product was able to be shipped into a particular state that the product is in any way legal for use in a vehicle operating within that state. The end user assume's all responsibility for ensuring they are maintaining legal vehicle use according to their state and federal guidelines.
If there are any questions at all about the use of a particular product on a particular vehicle, please contact us BEFORE purchasing, so that we can properly contact the manufacturer of the product and supply the pertinent information in regards to the legality of use for your area.
