Drive a Whiteout FR-S. Seeing a lot more in our area. Seemed like I saw tons of them before I actually got mine, then suddenly I felt like I was the only one on the road once I got mine. They seem to be slowly creeping out more now.

Just stumbled upon this thread but I've seen an asphalt FR-S with a Texas State Bobcat sticker on the back window on campus at Texas Lutheran University here in Seguin. Did a triple take walking between the beck center and the att building.

Alexm_09 - Fix it ticket? Hadn't been heckled about that here in New Braunfels/San Antonio mainly just my speed..

That sucks man. I have never had an austin cop give me a ticket. I have been stopped plenty of times but not ticket. I want to find a solution though just to avoid this problem, just in case they are cracking down with the new law in place.

License plate reallocation kits that use the tow hook are a great option as there is no drilling required.

Drove my car for 4 months without front plate but decided to get the GS kit. Not worth risking for the black and white guy to tell me to in paper.. Lol

Yeah I have a tow hook torqued down though. I would love to try and find a solution where I can pop my plates in and out of my tow hook, so I do not have to switch back and forth anytime I track.

Maybe the reallocation kit is my only option, I don't know

I'm on tapatalk atm, but if you're in an FR-S you could zip tie the plates to the grill. Unfortunately the BRZ isn't as easy.
