No front plate in NH?
My BRZ was delivered and I found out that they did not put any mounting holes in the front bumper for a license plate. I love the look without a front plate, but I know it's illegal in NH. Having never run without both plates, I don't know how picky most police in NH are in that regard. Should I bring it back to the dealer to have holes drilled in, do it myself, or just wait and see if I get pulled over and claim the dealer never drilled holes there?

I'm not a fan of the staggered license plate look, but it's already growing on me, that may be a route to go.

Just kidding. RHO is working on a product too. http://www.rhoplate.com/ I did buy the GrimmSpeed and I will put it on as soon as I get my plate. :happyanim: |
I'm gonna have 'em drill mine, I don't like the offset look either. The mustache needs to be covered up as much as possible! lol.

"SLAP" Yesterday I noticed someone didn't have a front licence plate parked outsides the gym I go to, but instead they had some novelty cartoon plate. |
I ran with no front plates here in maine for 3.5 years. Never got pulled over once for it, although i had to tip tie the front plate on to get it inspected.

I forgot about inspections... I probably will get holes drilled just so it's one less reason for a cop to pull me over if I'm going a bit too fast. And as Turbowned said, it helps cover the "mustache".

Got my car today in Keene too ! Immediately installed the Grimmspeed kit. I'll be able to post pics once my camera software installs.....

I'll do what I can to dissuade him from buying such an impractical vehicle ;)

I used to use a tow hook plate mount on my MINI. I would occasionally "forget" to put it back on. I got pulled over once for not having it installed. I had a semi-legitimate reason: I'd been ice-racing on Newfound Lake and had to get pulled out of a snow bank. At least once. *ahem* :)
I liked keeping the front of the car clean, but I was constantly walking into it. I think I still have a scar on my shin… In the end, having it mounted normally was just easier to live with. It's not a show car. |
Yeah I've grabbed my pant leg a couple times on the offset plate on my MR2. It works much better on the MR2 because there aren't any fog lights or DRL's under the main part of the bumper, just empty space:
