I got one, but havnt installed yet. If I get pulled over, it’s in the trunk. But I doubt I’ll be pulled for it. I have no cat, pretty loud remark exhaust. Tomei headers. And I’m about an inch and a half off the ground and tinted. Cops here don’t even look at me. Actually I work across from the police station. I see them daily when going to and from work. Never had an issue. I even drive to Portland (clackamas county!) and never have issues. I think they have more problems than a front license plate to deal with these days.

If you park on the streets of Portland, during parking patrol hours and they see your car, they will issue you a ticket. I think the fine is around $160, but it’s been a few years since I’ve gotten a no front plate ticket. All my cars have front plates now.

The Portland parking patrol is predatory; the city is bleeding money with all the riots, homelessness, vandalism, etc. No front plate is an easy source of income for them.

I got stopped for no front plate years ago in Eastern Oregon solely because the officer used the plate to bounce the radar off of. He said it’s an easy button for him. “I either get them for speed or get them for the plate, so the next time you drive through here, put the plate on.”

I was out of state so he gave me a pass.
