I'm not. The Z does though. I prefer to leave it in the burbs than deal with it in the city where I live.

Regardless, my mom's the coolest!

I like the barcode idea... GPS tracking is a little Big Brothery for my taste

I can't seem to find a side view photo, but here's a close up from the front of what I did.


( Click to show/hide )
I sure find it humorous when people black out their license plates. I just don't see the point when tons of people see my license plate on a daily basis. I wonder those people cover up their plates whenever they park their cars

I did just like you JAR. I never had one on the car when I was in Texas but they wouldn't pass my car for safety here in Hawaii without a front plate. I tried to zip tie onto the grill but they said it had to be "mounted." I wasn't about to argue with the tech so his jaw dropped when I asked for a drill and 2 screws. Went straight into the plastic piece as you did there and said "give me my f*ckin stickers." Signed off and I was on my way.

You can pick the motorized plate holder for $100 and they work great. Push a button/switch and the plate disappears or returns smoothly..

I didn't have a front license plate for 5 years and just finally got popped last month

If you daily drive and have to park on the street for things you run the risk of getting caught
