I just moved back home to KY from VA. I've been told by police that as long as you aren't over 3" of body lift, they will leave you alone. I have the regs around here somewhere though, and I will get back with you on that.
I don't know where you are in VA, but there are plenty of shops that will pass it. By the way, they don't worry about emissions there. They just do a safety inspection, and check to make sure all of your lights work and that you have a cat or no exhaust leak. So, check for exhaust leaks, make sure your signals and brake lights all work. If it has auto windows, make sure they go down, with exception of the rear. Your horn has to work too.

I'll get back with you when I find the regs.

That's why I love Kentucky. The good ole boys don't bother me. But like I said, if you don't go over 3" of body lift, they'll leave you alone. Just don't piss them off. You should see the lifted trucks at the beach. Some of them are insane. The cops have more fun hunting ricers, and ticketing people for having tinted windows. You'll be safe.
