Not a fan of guns personally, but we shouldn't discuss those matters here

I agree on not discussing that, was just tying to make a point on silly NY laws. :happy0180:

No front plate. Cops around my area don't really care about front plates. It's just parking near public parks will get me ticketed.

I haven't figured out how to mount it yet in a way that it doesn't ruin the look of the front bumper, so uhhh... no.

Texas let the serious ramifications slip through without renewal, so I don't. I've talked to a few and they can (and will) pull you over for it to check you out (drunk driving, etc).

I was going to get a Perrin front license plate holder. No way was I going to drill the front bumper. But then I was driving and saw about seven cars go by without a front license plate. I've been looking since, and estimate about 15% of the cars here have no front plate. So I'm not going to either

No front plate, thanks PA

Alberta, Canada

No front plates required

I've got the Grimmspeed tow hook mount. I like the offset look on the front plate.

Yes to front license plate... because law. But I do have a plate relocation kit on... because legal.

Dr Huston · 07-01-2013, 02:11 PM

I hated the idea of it. The car looks so much better without it. Po Po got me and it is $80 ticket. Now I have Grimmspeed. Prol should have gotten it in the first place. Would love if all states got rid of stupid outdated law. Well Iowa anyway.

Ironic that right after I got ticket I counted 9 cars without front plates including a Ferrari.

Have grim relocation .. California law.. Dealer was cool and liked how it looks with no front plate and they said they didn't want to drill a hole and if a cop pull me over just tell them I just got the car.. But not taking a chance here in California pigs try to get you for every little thing

Fortunately, no front plate required here. I did expect to get stopped when I went up north though. figured they'd start to pull me over, then realize I was from out of town.
