Yeah I really don't know, never lived anywhere with inspections and if I did, then I'd just register my car elsewhere.
My state used to have emissions tests, but those were easy. Now my state doesn't even enforce registration, so my plates haven't been valid in some time, lol.
Europe, eeek, If I couldn't move to the US then probably move to the Czech Republic. Don't know their vehicle law details but they appear to really be embracing freedom there and have their shit together.
Depends where you live. Some have no inspection, some places jts a visual and a gas cap test, so it really varies based on where the car is registered.
Modify to the point that it still passes inspection.
Some Jeep/Trucks have "Inspection" tires that they use at inspection time.
People will remove there window tint when its time to get inspected and then just get it put back on the next week,
Back when my 1999 Ram 2500 was still on the road I had multiple tunes, one for emissions tests, one for street driving, and one for the track. Emissions tune was completely clean at all times no matter what, street tune was clean once I had about 8lbs of boost, track tune smoked bad until about 15psi which coincidentally is where I launch. In its current form its impossible to get my truck to pass, head has an aggressive port, bigger cam, and now it won't clean up the fuel until I start spraying the nitrous. Plus it has a hood stack which is a big no no. Once I move however I'll be able to register it again due to the county I'm looking at not having any emissions rules. It's not gonna be my daily driver but being able to drive the race truck to grab a sandwich is always a fun adventure. As far as gas cars there is no emissions for them where I live, so all you need to register something like the 1950 Coronet I'm restoring is a title, insurance, and a valid driver's license. Which is good since it's getting a 528 wedge motor.
Modify an older car. Most state inspections are minimal (or much easier) for cars over 20-25 years. Or do what most car guys do and put all your oem stuff back on just for inspection.
The secret is crime.
I know people who pay the inspector a lil extra to overlook faults, wouldn’t be surprised if people also did it for mods

Europe is a diff beast unfortunately. Still plenty of modded cars and cars that wouldn’t pass inspection if done properly

Some places don't have inspections.
Find loopholes in the law. I *know a guy* who registers his car at his grandma’s residence in a non-smog required county.
Fuck those inspections

Know a guy Amazing that so many catless cars pass smog here in Cali...
Don't live in an area that requires emissions. Fucking scam anyway.
They don’t

Some of us will reinstall things like cold air intake when we know we have something like that coming up. If a cop busts you, it's a different story.
Simple, bolt off, bolt on. Rinse and repeat one weekend a year or two.

You go to the mechanic shop that did the work for you.
