No front plate in NH?
My BRZ was delivered and I found out that they did not put any mounting holes in the front bumper for a license plate. I love the look without a front plate, but I know it's illegal in NH. Having never run without both plates, I don't know how picky most police in NH are in that regard. Should I bring it back to the dealer to have holes drilled in, do it myself, or just wait and see if I get pulled over and claim the dealer never drilled holes there?

I'm not a fan of the staggered license plate look, but it's already growing on me, that may be a route to go.

I'm gonna have 'em drill mine, I don't like the offset look either. The mustache needs to be covered up as much as possible! lol.

I forgot about inspections... I probably will get holes drilled just so it's one less reason for a cop to pull me over if I'm going a bit too fast. And as Turbowned said, it helps cover the "mustache".

I used to use a tow hook plate mount on my MINI. I would occasionally "forget" to put it back on. I got pulled over once for not having it installed. I had a semi-legitimate reason: I'd been ice-racing on Newfound Lake and had to get pulled out of a snow bank. At least once. *ahem*
![]() I liked keeping the front of the car clean, but I was constantly walking into it. I think I still have a scar on my shin… In the end, having it mounted normally was just easier to live with. It's not a show car. |
