No Front Plate
 
:shakes head:Got stopped by a DPS officer today. She wrote me a warning for no front plate.

I figure I will order the Stillen front plate kit b/c I dont want to drill holes in the bumper. I'm gonna wait until I get a ticket and then I will install it and see about getting it dismissed.

Front plate will ruin the look of the Z, very sad.

I've got 4 of those tickets, but I will still not put the plate =))

I installed this on my Z, am sure you can figure out a way to make it work on the 370Z front bumper:

They also sell the remote control version:

Yep, I feel your pain. I got pulled over 4 times within the first month of owning my Z up here in MD.

I was getting pulled over every six months, never got a ticket, but it still got old. The motorized bracket is a nice option, but I love my gominigo bracket.:p

I have this kit, works great. I also had trimmed the plate from my previous car so it is narrower. Nissan - GoMiniGo-Home of Innovative Products for your car

i know its the law but that is dumb, i see mercs and bmw's all day long with no front plate. I drive along side cops and when they are slowing traffic to a crawl @ I-10 getting on 45 south bound i drive by 3 cops standing there looking to write tickets but they never do anything (knocks on wood). Sometime i think our car might get picked out just because it is a sports car.

got a ticket in san antonio for no front plate on mine. its 12 dollars to dismiss it with a picture of it on your car. borrow someone's stillen bracket and take a photo of it on your car take it off give them their bracket back and keep that picture forever.

.....don't even get me started...... :( Dealer already had a bracket on mine. I probably would have put up the front plate anyway but it would have been nice to have had the option. I did, however, managed to have them NOT add the dealership emblem to the back of the car.

Sucks about the plate, I pestered my dealer daily to make sure they didn't touch my car, other than the required prep. I love my bracket. Rep for keeping those tacky dealer stickers off at least. :tup:
