Do you live in a one plate or two plate state?
 
Do you live in a one or two plate state? If you live in a two plate state will you put the front plate on? What is the fine for not having the front plate on in your state?

Several states have abolished this law. Help Missouri do the same also.

two plate state. doubtful. don't remember. :D

Two.

I don't really know where I'd put the plates.. Obviously the back one has its own little grove. Don't know about the front. It might constrict airflow. Lol

two. I took off the front last year and got a 312-buck-fine ticket.

Two. Yes but not sure where to put it yet. And I had my plate off last year and got a $60 fine. Dark I would be furious to pay $312 for something so minor.

OUCH! $312 for a front plate violation!! What's a speeding ticket cost? I got a red light ticket and that was $100 and the camera took the pic from behind. I would like someone from law enforcement to explain why a front plate is necessary.

Two plate state, there are 32 total that enforce this BS law. It's plain and simply hideous and without it we'd have better aerodynamics. . 20 States have abolished this requirement already. Please help California do the same.

I live in 2, but if you put your plate in the window they usually don't mess with you

C-Bone 05-03-2011 10:53 AM

Well 2 I guess lol seeing darks post though I see people with one all the time... I had a friend that had it in the window and said he got pulled over for that

Zaku 05-03-2011 11:06 AM

2 plate and I might do the off to the side on my front like my last car a Japaneses style location lol.

NikostC 05-03-2011 11:09 AM

1 :D

2 plate state.

I've been driving around with 1 for years and never had a problem. I think it's more of something that gets tacked on to other tickets like speeding and fix it tickets. I just drive the speed limit and use my blinkers at all times. Works like a charm!

If I were to order an Ft86 I would specifically tell the dealer not to put holes in the front bumper cover or else I wouldn't buy it.
