A lot of us in Socal don't run one and haven't gotten any trouble. But I think it depends on the area. I'm in OC but I've heard LA is a little more strict cause of parking security etc.
interesting thread if you haven't seen:

My solution was one of these:

I've had it on for over a year with no issues. Two little holes (1/8") underneath the bumper lip is all you need.

I have not had a front plate on my last 3 cars, since I started driving in 2002. I've been pulled over a few times for various things, parking tickets, etc., and I've never had a cop mention anything about the lack of a front plate.

Perrin makes a good mount that is a little harder to get the plate on than the Grimspeed, but I like the build quality and its a little lighter.
