I was really pissed about it, but honestly my relocation kit has really grown on me, and I think of it as a tiny little shield that helps fend off rock chips from part of my bumper.
I highly recommend the Grimmspeed relocation hit as it is very adjustable, and specific to our platform. You need a 5mm hex wrench, a 3mm hex wrench (if you use screws that come with the kit (I used different ones since I had a thicker license plate frame), and a 17mm socket.
So I think it's unlikely it's going to get stolen, especially if you use a torquing wrench to fasten it on, which is probably what you'd want to use anyway.
I've never had problems with it, or seen any indication that someone's tried to mess with it. Also make sure to add some grease to the main bolt, so you don't shear anything.
Just curious did you have your front plate in the windshield, or not visible at all? I always heard mixed information on weather or not they can ticket you if it's in the windshield.

Unfortunately I didn't have my plate in the dash. I took it off when I cleaned the car and left it in the garage. I'm not sure if they would of helped my case at all either tho.
The officer I worked with was really picky about everything. He questioned my tint, he wanted my paper work for it and then he proceeded to check it, and then he asked me about my exhaust and if I knew how loud it was... I was a bit blind sided by that one.
