Default Got S2k for the wife

The wife wanted a convertible so I took her to see this one...’05 with 58k miles and in great shape, and she loved it. Definitely be fun for me to work on and drive.

BumperPlugs makes them however I contacted them recently for my suzuka blue s2k & they told me they dont have our color or anything even close to it. You would have to do a custom order for $150 & they will make 3 sets (6 plugs) for you.

I found some on ebay for $20, but not sure they match exactly. $50 a set, that's larceny. Not sure where you are but I'm in Allen and the cops will prolly give me a ticket for no front plate.

If you like unwanted traffic stops and sniff testing of your car eliminate the front tag. Sports cars are assumed to be speeding but why attract additional attention?. Stops are always at inconvenient times as well, like running late for something important. Yeah, any car looks better without one but I ain't got time to converse with rookie policemen for something as vain as no front tag.

My sentiments as well, no reason to provoke them to stop you.

Yeah, that's my thinking too now that I've thought about it....I could talk my way out of it but the wife couldn't.
