Hi ne1234,

At the following link you'll find a list of  Registered Importers (RI)
who are qualified to modify vehicles to conform with EPA and DOT
standards, but unfortunately there isn't one located in South Carolina
or Georgia. Depending on where you are located, Florida or Maryland
appear to be the closest to you. Contact them first to make sure they
can work on your particular car (have the engine number handy). Please
click on the links or full details.

REGISTERED IMPORTERS WHO CONFORM VEHICLES MANUFACTURED FOR SALE IN
COUNTRIES OTHER THAN CANADA as of June 20, 2005
"A vehicle without a certification label cannot be imported as a
conforming vehicle. In this case, the importer must contract with a
Registered Importer (RI) to modify the vehicle..."

The following is a list of Independent Commercial Importers (ICIs) who
hold currently valid certificate of conformity from EPA as of the date
of this list. This certificate allows the ICI to import certain
nonconforming vehicles into the United States until December 31, 2005.
THE MAKES OR MODELS THAT AN ICI CAN IMPORT ARE LIMITED. You should
contact the ICI to determine if he/she is qualified to import your
particular vehicle.

and wait for me to respond before closing/rating my answer.
