I am going to let my dealer to drill the front plate holes simply because I don’t want to get pull over. I’m living in a city that has cop pulling over people for minor issues or lame reasons. Over the years, I got pull over for burnt front light, small minor windshield crack, side mount front plate (he thought I had no front plate), and less-than-full 3 second stop signal stop (the cop pull his stopwatch showing I stopped only for 2.5 seconds! Wtf!) When I first got my tC in 2004, I even got pull over for speeding going 35 mph in a 35 mph zone. Yes, going 35 in a 35 zone! Of course, they dismissed the ticket later on. My friend said the cop just wanted to see what kind of car I was driving. I can imagine when I get my FR-S next week, the cops will look for every reason to pull me over. I don’t want to get extra attention, so I’ll let the dealer to drill the holes.

Sports car with front plates......ahhh man

Anything with 9-11 Rear plate frames = no tickets here

Seriously half the people that special ordered Prius Plugins from me didn't get front plates AND THAT CAR COMES WITH AN ELETRICAL PLUG!

Officer : Do you know why I pulled you over?

MrFRsLa : Why did you forget??

Good for you.
I've done that in my first car, but the cop remember. He gave me a fix ticket.
