If you are referring to the traffic light cameras, those are fading away pretty fast.

But hey, if they want to pay $25 for the ability to operate a vehicle w/o a front plate I say let them eat cake.

Not just traffic light cameras. Cameras for toll booths, or even plate readers on cop cars. They want plates on both ends of the vehicle so they can catch as many folks as possible. I'm just saying maybe if they made it an optional fee to allow only one plate they could break even or maybe even profit. Sure it's not THAT simple, but it's a starting point.

Yes I do because the ticket here in Texas is a bit hefty now, but there was no fing way I was drilling holes into my bumper.


Raceseng mount (thought I had a head on pic but can't find it, no it's not crooked at all)

Yes, grimmspeed relocated BC cops around me love writing tickets for anything they possibly can. Wish I could go front plateless.

Just gotta tighten the crap out of the nut that sets the angle of the plate. It'll hold!

Front plate is required in CT, but I'm moving to SC soon and trying to set the car up for then. Dealer asked me if I wanted a plate mount and I declined. I bought the Perrin mount and love it, I don't at all mind the look and it'll be so easy to go back to no plate when I get out of this state.
That E85 access is calling my name!

Awesome, I have the same mount and love it...it was the option to add a tow hook/GoPro mount that made me decide on the Raceng mount. Maybe tomorro I could snap a quick picture.
