An officer can force you to pop your hood if he has what he considers a reasonable suspicion that your car is modified. Running without a front plate is probably enough to make him think you have other changes. Modified wheels. An aftermarket exhaust. Stickers. Speeding. He can pick on you for any of that. I don't think it's reasonable to pick on a car by model, but any other reason is probably fair game.
