I drive with mine on. Just put it on permanently two weeks ago because in the past, I've gotten ticketed for no front plate while parked on the street in a couple cities. I've gotten over the clean look of the front of the car with no front plate in favor of less worries and problems (man, did I just say that? I must be getting old).

I run with no front plate as well. Only got a ticket for it once because the meter maids in Santa Monica are the biggest money grubbing pricks in the world and will give you a ticket for literately anything they can.
$25 for such a nice look is worth it imo. plus at work and at home I park in a garage so there is nothing cops can do there. |

I haven't had front plates on my vehicles for over 10 years....................until I got pulled over in my FR-S for not displaying my front plate. Fine would have been $75, but got off with a warning. Needless to say, plate mounts went on all my vehicles!
I live in Iowa and they've recently also required that the County designation listed on the bottom of the plate be visible and not covered up by a plate frame. This is total crap, and seems like an excuse to pull you over! What does this really matter if your plate is issued by the state anyway? |

Had no plates for a long time after my Grimmspeed relocator broke. After having two tickets involving no front plate(My first no plate ticket cost $25 and had to show them the correction with local police department. Second time was a $61 parking ticket for no plate in front of my own house -_-). Got my front plate relocator fixed and back on now.
