Hey Shalin do you have the front license plate on your car?

Im wondering if I should keep it on the TL. Man it looks so much better without it.

Shalin had his front plate. But, he mounted it lower.

I hate front license plates and will never run one, no matter how many tickets I get.

I do for now, but I am going to take it off again. It looks much better without it. Even if you leave yours on, make sure they give you the colored plugs for the front bumper. They come with the car, so make sure that they don't try to charge you for it.

Yea, I used to have mine off. But so many of my friends were getting tickets for no front plate for the last few months. That is why I put mine back on temporarily. I will be taking mine off again soon.

Meh....I havent had a front license plate on any car I've owned really. I've only gotten a ticket once and that was in Richardson and I mouthed off to the oinker. Anyhow, took my back plate off stuck it on the front, took a polaroid, went to court showed the judge, and poof ticket dismissed.

For some reason though, Irving cops are out all the time and it seems that they are pulling people over for the smallest things. One we are out of Irving and in Carrollton, then I will be taking mine off.

no I can afford it. My wife and I sat down and looked over everything. They are were able to get my payments to 400/month which is what I was hoping for. I make enough to afford it.

But yes Im still waiting to hear from Pratt. There HR department is in WV and they just went through an audit. So as soon as they are done with there manpower planning analysis I should get a call. Well.....thats whats been e-mail to me. So I wait some more. Im just glad that this guy has been letting me know all of this.

dude if you just sit there and watch cars, like every other car doesnt have a front license plate. Its just a reason the cop can use to pull you over if he wants to

I just quoted this guy giving his opinion about tinting windows. I think the same can be said about the front license plate. I give him two

Maybe not the front window, but I will probably mount it on the bracket and keep it in my trunk. The bracket is a little messed up...
