front liscense plate off
�
�
I just took off my front liscense plate and it looks tight, I just thought you all should know. Very easy DIY exterior mod, all you need is a phillips screwdriver. :banana:
| ricified | 11-14-2005 05:42 PM |
also illegal in some states. :)
| pignoseWRX | 11-14-2005 05:50 PM |
illegal in his state...
and would you really call this a mod?! was this a modification when i screwed it on when the dmv mailed it to me? i hope this is a joke... in which case you should use the[FONT=Fixedsys] sarcasm font[/FONT]!

| w0rx4me | 11-14-2005 08:46 PM |
[FONT=Fixedsys]Maybe somebody should mention this is illegal.[/FONT]

It just gives the police a reason to pull you over.
| dmb2427 | 11-14-2005 09:01 PM |
glad i live in a state where front tags are not required
| grannyshifter | 11-14-2005 09:04 PM |

| buzz367 | 11-14-2005 09:12 PM |
im in cali and no-one gets in trouble out here for it if its a sick car and it looks retarded with it on (like my suby). when the aerodynamics matter on a good car the cops dont care. as long as you have a rear. my dad's porsche doesnt have it either he's never gotten busted either.
| turbosporttsi | 11-14-2005 11:43 PM |
i fastened mine to my pass side visor. when alot of cops are around i can just flip it down. its legal......
i figure ill just keep it that way until i get a 25 dollar ticket.... it will be worth it. it does clean the front up alot.

This thread sucks cocka. I hope it was a joke.
| rally_on | 11-15-2005 01:44 AM |
i took the mod one more step and bondo-ed the holes + touch up paint... :banana:
| Handsdown | 11-15-2005 01:47 AM |
live in a state that doesn't require one and then get a bumper that never had holes to begin with.

I popped my hood, very easy, gave access to my engine bay for unlimited modding

that's a pretty freaking huge generalization, bud. considering the amount of cops in CA... maybe you want to rethink your statement?

never been hassled here either...i wonder if i will once i get my ricecannon exhaust on the new car :D i'm probably gonna get an ultimaterice fake japanese front plate to fake them out ;)
| bigworm | 11-15-2005 03:46 PM |
if you dont have one its just a reason to get pulled over then they can ask about other things and when they walk up they can see if there is anything that gives them probable cause to search your car like gauges so there might be modifies smog equipment stuff like that if your car is heavily modified and you dont know the police in your area id say stay away from stuff like dark tint, no front liscense plate and really loud exhaust. but thats just my 2 cents hopefully you know the cops in your area =)

interesting enough. i got my ticket on mira mesa blvd in my non lowered no exhaust havin gs*r about 5 years ago. drive around downtown SD or LA on a fri. or sat. night and sure enough you'll eventually get a ticket.

of course its possible. especially in downtown. but in an area where there are ferraris and porsches driving around that dont have a front liscense plates EVER (unless the owner is a dumbass) then the cops dont really care that much unless their having a shi**ty day and are in a bad mood.

must of us here in alaska have em removed and we just went and bought some mini suction cups in the craft department at walmart and stuck it inside the passenger windshield
| STi-JDM | 11-16-2005 04:29 AM |
I got one ticket already :(
| IronMonkeyL255 | 11-16-2005 12:13 PM |
I love not needing a front plate..... :)
| j-wrx | 11-16-2005 03:16 PM |
I got a fix-it ticket for having no front plate last year (cost me $10). I was parallel parked when it happened, so it must have been a very bored cop to have seen it (the car in front of me was only 2' away).
Still don't have it on. If I get another one, that might convince me.
Not having the front plate improves aerodynamics yo! ;)

Yep cops are real jerks sometimes about it here in Tx.
P.S.- No offense to cops at all.

I also live in (socal) in San Diego and have never had a problem not haveing a front plate on any car that I have owned.
| KamiKaziBoarder | 11-16-2005 04:01 PM |
Totally illegal here. It'll get you pulled over faster than going 90mph in a 55.
| 9vapors | 11-16-2005 04:17 PM |
meh, I was home for a little over 1 week, and I got 2 tickets for no front license plate. Westchester NY, notorious front license plate nazis everywhere.
| D-Speed 2.5 | 11-16-2005 04:20 PM |
I haven't used a front plate here in CO for several years now. I have never been pulled over for it but I have gotten some parking tickets when I forgot to put the plate in the windshield. I think it is more of a parking violoation here (downtown streets) more than anything else.
| nate.the.great | 11-16-2005 06:19 PM |
$50 here in Illinois. I already got one ticket while I was parked downtown. It's back on, but now with a smoked cover.
