It used to be that a car converted to run on CNG could be smog exempted as an "alternative fuel vehicle". I don't believe that the exemption is still in place, but cars already exempted are exempted for life.

Doing so was also pretty much the only way to get a B20 legalized in a passenger vehicle.

Now, it is illegal to run a converted and exempted car on gas again. But, since the car doesn't need a smog check after being exempted, there isn't too much risk of getting caught.
