I have had the car for almost two years now and one time I was pulled over for no front plate.. It was when I was omw to get my front bumper wet sanded and polished after it was just repainted... i swear i was literally pulling in the body shop when the MTA (railroad cop) policeman decided to pull me over for no front plate.. He than bitched about my tint, my exhaust which i said was stock and he believed me, and the main reason was my plate.. I explained that I was on my way to the shop that is right there and pointed at it, to get my bumper wet sanded/polished so I have not had the chance to install it yet.... He than says that is " A lame excuse at best" ... I swear... A few minutes later he comes back and hands me a ticket for front plate .... I had several other encounters with cops and none complained of my plate nor did I ever get any other tickets..

The worst part about this all was I had no idea he was an MTA cop, my girlfriend of a LONG time has a cousin I routinely see at holidays, family gatherings, who is also a MTA cop and a long time co-worker of the cop who wrote me. I Realized afterwords and told him Sean got a good laugh out of you writing me a ticket, and said he "wasn't surprised' Her cousin literally told me to tell him this b/c he is known as the #1 writer.. He than goes you are supposed to tell me you know him before hand, bla bla... W/E though, Its one ticket, I will pay it and hopefully it doesn't happen again.

I'm gonna wait until I get two strikes before I bite the bullet, But IMO the tow hook bracket doesn't look right to me.. I will be going with the motorized one, and dremel out a section of the sports lip to make it fit...
