Who in NY/NJ don't have his front license plate on? I don't and I know I will be getting a ticket for it sooner or later. But I going to take that risk.

 

i never even considered it...definite cop magnet.

whats the fine? is it points?

i really hate the way it looks with the front plate. you can tell most manufacturers throw it on as an afterthought

 

Don't do it.

I took it off for like a month. Then I got pulled over for it. So I put it back on. That is definitely what attracted him. $44 out the door. No points.

who cares it does look better w/o it but put a nice frame around it or something.....

 

Ok, I think I should put it back. No need to attract cops with my license plate and other illegal mods.

 

I haven't had one on my car for almost 2 years now and have never been stopped. Knock on wood... :banghead:

 

i have never had one here in wi and its illegal to not have one. ive been warned acouple of times in the past 12 years but no tickets. just make up an excuse if you do get pulled over

 

what kind of excuse can you make up?

"sorry officer, damned japanese cars, 3 months old and already the license plate bolts rusted and broke"

 

HAHAHA....

I tried this one:

I just got my front bumper painted and they forgot to screw the holes for the license plate.

He didn't fall for it. Got the ticket. It was a State Trooper on 280 East by Newark.

well i broke the liscense plate holder and put it in my trunk. when i got pulled over i told him some one backed into my car and broke it off and i havent had time to run down to the acura dealer (1hr 30+ min drive) to get a new one. he just simply told me to get it fixed as soon as i could. that has worked on every occasion now.

 

Damn, I take 280 to NYC every weekend. Hmm... should I put it back? Still considering...

 

dont be a dump ass and put it back on.....

jk...

put it on, better safe then sorry...

 

Damn Charles you're ruck like that? If that's the case then I am going to take off my license plate too. Then you can pay for my ticket too.

Seriously, it's not worth the hassle and the $$$.

 

I drove without a front license plate on my 2000 Buick Regal for three years without a problem.

Three months after I bought my 02 TL-S I got a ticket for it.

 

I have not had a front plate in 10 years and I've never been pulled over for it. It's a law in Ohio, but I don't think they care that much. Or I've just been extremely lucky.

I don't have one on any of my vehicles (RX300/Wrangler/TL-S)

To me...the look is worth the $50 fine someday!

 

victor-

I haven't had one on my Talon or (before that) Mercury for 10 years and have never been pulled over; for it or anything else. I asked a cop friend about it and he said it's not real high on the priority list.

Personally I think they look stupid.

Does anyone remember those SUV's that the cops would park on the side of the highway? They would open the rear hatch window and mount a speed gun and a camera to take a picture of the front of your car. Complete with license plate and the person driving it. Later you would get a ticket in the mail with a copy of the picture. With no front plate you can just smile your ass off and keep driving without a care.:flamer:

 

Yeah....screw 'em! :devil:

 

i dont know about this... i had a friend tha own a Prelude and he did that for a month.. got 3 tickets.... then he put it back on..

so Charles if you are going to do it GL... :p

 

I just put it back this morning. Doesn't look as good. But oh well, while I was driving this morning I saw a lot of cars passing by without their plates. MMMM...... tempting...

 

Yeah but the problem is that our cars attract to much attention. I think that is why I got pulled over for it. Im a 21 yr in a nice car. If you had a Lincoln TownCar or something a Grandma and Gramdpa would drive you woul never get pulled over.

I tried using the zip tie method and put the plate and holder just underneath where it would normally go. It looks a lot better, and I haven't had any problems.

 

If I were a cop I would prey on the old people. Only because I've been driving for 20 years and can count the compentent ones on one hand.

 

This is my front plate, I got pulled over 2 or 3 times in the summer.

 

Nice plate...that "bling" would definitely attract some attention to "Johnny Law".

 

Yes it does look allot better. I despise the location of the stock plate, can't stand it. As for having no plates, I don't need any more help getting pulled over by the cops

 

does that really work?....thats such a god idea...i think i'll try that

 

TUFF GONG...doesn't look too bad. If I had to wear a front plate, I'd consider that.

 

its worked for me a couple of times.
