I mounted mine on the front air dam, you know the one right under the radiator. Sure from 20 feet back you can see the plate, but its not actually mounted on the front of the car. On comming traffic can easily see my front plate, havn't been hassled by LEO yet...

 

can u post a pic as i had the same idea but didnt know how to come about doin it?

 

Man im glad I don't have to worry about front plates thats about the only good thing about indiana, and no emmision tests

 

sure, heres a pic;

 

Move to Florida and get rid of that front plate entirely!

J/K...Its just real nice to not have to worry about it down here, along with no need for any window registration/inspection stickers.

 

What ever happend to the guy that made the hideaway license. Ill try to find the post, but it was really cool to have one of those. I think he was supposed to make more and sell them.

 

And as a result, half the cars on the road only have one working head/tail light and smoke profusely.

 

HEY...It only smokes on start up!

 

actually i was kind of wondering what to do with the front plate for firebirds. On most camaros they have a place to mount them, firebird don't. Sorry about that. I think the best option i like so far is bending the plate just a little bit and mounting it directly to the front bumper, no license plate bracket needed. Zepher's formula's front plate is mounted this way.

 

I'd like to see that..

 

Here you go

Hide away Front Plate

 

Me Likey

 

Front license plates are lame, my state of Ohio requires them also, but I have only had 1 car that actually had a bracket for the front. If there is no bracket I refuse to put it on. I have never been stopped by a cop, I don't think they really enforce it anyway. You see tons of cars on the road without the front plate.

 

They usually don't stop you for it, but if they pull you over for another reason, they add that ticket on too.

I used to put my plate in the windshield, I got pulled over too many times, so I just sucked it up and put it on the front of the car.

 

according to CA, thats totally ok:
"The rear license plate shall be mounted not less than 12 inches nor more than 60 inches from the ground, and the front license plate shall be mounted not more than 60 inches from the ground"

i'm so doing that.

 

Mine is under the seat. It is true they can fuss about them in Ohio, but from all the cops I've talked to, as long as you aren't doing anything else wrong, they will usually leave you alone.

 

I actually got pulled over a while ago for this her in California. I told the cop a) it is a California car, b) it never came with one and c) the car is 16 years old and I can't exactly go back to Chevy and complain!
He said that 'makes sense- drive safe'!!

 

i need to find a way to do that, because it is so cool.

 

here in mass we are supposed to have the front plates also, mines hanging on my wall in my room right now at college.... when i go for inspection i just tape it to the front of the bumper, i get good looks from the guys at teh inspection places when they see it taped on there lol

 

just leave it in the garage they dont look good on are cars... i got pulled over for it and told them it wasnt drilled for it and wasnt drillen for it... he didnt like that so got a warning...

 

the best option I found on the web till now

Thats awesome! If front plates were needed in Quebec, thats what Id go with.

 

my idea: throw in under the seat, oh wait, mines on the tool chest!!

 

good call, i stuck with the under the seat method

oh wait i also got ticketed for that this summer

oh well f-em i put it at least back in the window which still isnt legal, but hopefully they leave me alone about it. itll never go back on the front of the car

oh wait im moving to alberta NO FRONT PLATES woot

 

Thats awesome dude. The cops in my state will pull you over for anything.

 

had mine in the windshield for awhile...then under the drivers seat...and now i think its hanging in the garage

 

There was no way I was going to drill holes in my brand new GM front bumper. So I have it in the windshield, on the pass. side at the bottom corner, and it's help up w/1" squares of gray double sided tape located where the holes are. I've gotten a lot of compliments on my way around Ohio's stupid law, and in 4 years I have never been pulled over (knock on wood).
