my inspection is coming up (3/04), and i was wondering what people did to pass inspection without a front license plate. i just had my bumper holes filled, and i really really don't want to drill holes in it to mount the license plate. my nice new front bumper with brand new paint should be shown off. so, is there anythign you can do temporarily to mount it? i never use mine, and the police don't seem to care for the last 2 years.... any help?

 

magnet behind the bumper, then one on the plate
just an idea not sure if it would work or not.

 

most vehicles I've seen who dont have a front plate, have it in their front window

 

double sided tape. simple, easy, and they won't be able to tell the difference

 

I tuck mine in the bra just for the inspection then take it all back off after I pass.

Never had any problem using this method.

Good luck.

 

mines in the window wedged between the dash and window on passenger side, you can kinda see it in sig...

 

i was thinking of using the bra idea mentioned above. but to put a bra on, you need to use an adhesive for the velcro in front of the turn signals and headlights. maybe some double sided tape or something. i just want to be as little damage as possible to my shiney new front bumper. magnets sound like a good idea.. but will that work?

 

my bra I had on before Igot my front end upgrade just had something like hooks, its hard to dsecribe, you just Fold em behind the fender and around under it and it just grabbed it. Its the stupid one that is 1 piece, no part for hood. But it says CAMARO across it, i just shut hood on it which looked cool, lol

 

I know a guy that used velcro to attach his,glue a couple bolt heads to the top plate holes so it looks bolted lol

 

seriously.. i want to do something like that... i just don't want to get any adhesive from the backing of the velcro on my car.. or would it not come off on my car?

 

Is it painted now where your front plate holes were?
That would be the only thing Id worry about too...
but other then the adhesive thing it would work good,I also hate
front plates,The only real reason they want us to have front plates is so when we fly by them going the other way... there hoping if we have a front plate they might get the plate number

 

yea, the holes are filled in.... i'm not speeding ever, so i should not even need license plates :lala:

 

now you just need to convince them that ,when you go to get a sticker with no plates

J/K

 

I have a liscence plate holder that mounts underneath the front part of your car. It's L-shaped so the bottom part of it slides under your car and then it just sicks up so you don't need holes there or anywhere. It mounts on the screws that are already holding something on.

I actually don't use it, so if anyone wants it, I should probably sell it on here, eh?

 

welll... that sounds pretty cool.. where did you get it? how much do they run for?

 

any pics of it? then you can see if you like it..

 

inspections are a PITA those state plates look so dumb on our cars

 

I don't know what kind of bra you use, but mine is held by clips. I only use the bra to the inspection station and back, then I take it all off. I am very carefull not to cause any damage...otherwise it would defeat the whole reason why I refuse to put the front plate on.

Good luck and Happy New Year!
