Default How to mount front plate

I do not want to drill into my front bumper (asm replica) but the officer said that I have 30 days to mount the front plate, take it to any south county office and they will sign off on it with no fine.




Suggestions?????

Will they let you just pay the fine, rather than drill into the car?? Don't think there's any way to mount a plate without drilling your bumper...

You could get the JDM license plate anglers, & drill/mount them in the mouth of the bumper, with the plate upright to get out of the fine, then remove or adjust to lie as flat as poss

Out here in central Missouri, they put the plates up against the front windshield with a microfiber towel behind it to keep it flush up against the window and protect the dash. I'd look into the actual law. Does it have to be mounted from the front bumper, or can it be visible from the front.

I keep mine registered to FL, so I only need a rear tag

Just do what I did... pay the ticket and continue rolling around plateless. I received a ticket for not having a plate a couple years ago and I just paid it. For me, it's worth paying a ticket every couple years to run plateless...
