I got pulled over the first day I drove my Camaro. The cop didn't even check for front plates. Probably because it was new.

Nope!!!

Nessal · 12-09-2011, 04:51 PM

Don't plan on installing one. I won't complain either if I get a ticket. I know the rules and choose not to play by them.

My car came from a front plate state so it has the holes, have plugs in them now but have a plan to have them filled and Pace Rally stripes covering them up come spring.

Mine's right there on the stock mount. It's required in MA and I have no problem with that.

kinardr · 12-09-2011, 07:57 PM

I have mine on. Live in Washington DC, but I have Washington State plates. But I Park my Car at the Pentagon everyday and they look everyday soo... I dont feal like getting tickets.

I live in NY, they require a front plate however it is not a "primary offense" which means that they can't pull you over for it. A sheriff friend of mine told me it was considered a "belligerent ticket". In other words if your a jerk you will get a ticket for it. I have not intention of ruining the front of my car with a plate. I will take the ticket long before I even think of screwing one to the front.

My front plate can be found under the mat in the trunk. And the plate bracket can be found in the garage. But never will both be found on the bumper.

I have one on. Bought the eliminatorbracket which pops right off with two spring-loaded clips hidden behind the license plate holder (uses the plate bracket that comes with the car). with the bracket off, theres a small black metal plate hidden in the lower grill. not a bad option but definitely didn't wanna drill into the front of the car in case I ever move to a state without front license plate requirements.
