Yeah, ive also heard usually the police around houston aren't too touchy on it either. Most of the sports cars i see around here dont even have front plate holes. The biggest concern is picking up my FR-S from the dealer with damn holes in the bumper, it wud drive me crazy!

Live in NY so 2 for me.

When I see people take plate off bumper and put it in window I facepalm. It looks like shit and draws more attention that your plate is not on the front bumper. If you take it off, might as well just put it in your garage or something.

I'm not too sure about this one but I think if the car does not come with holes in the front bumper for your license plate right off the lot, you cannot get a ticket for not having a front license plate no matter what state you're in.

woo signed the petition...now to hope that democracy actually works.
I wonder what the front plate is for anyways, I honestly cannot remember a single time I noticed a license plate on the front of a car when it wasn't parked...on the road all I see is the rear.
