I've decided, after much debate, to remove my front plate for the sake of style and good taste. I ordered my bumper plugs from handa-accessories.com last night (I gave my originals to Greg Stevens). My bro-inlaw says that Texas no longer requires the front plate. Does anyone have any news on this. Well, anyway, it's my birthday, and I've decided to go plateless; damn the consequences.

Good call, LV...that plate completely ruins the lines of the front end.

I have only gotten one ticket for not having it here...it was 25 dollars. I consider that 25 well spent dollars!

I just hope you're not going to ask for the bumper plugs back!

I believe a bill was introduced in the last legislative session, but never came to pass...I guess they were too preoccupied w/ outlawing open containers and other more trivial issues.

The front plate definitely has to go. Thanks for the info on the front bumber plugs. I was wondering what to do with that problem.

The front bumper plugs were purchased from hanadaccessories.com? This seems to be an invalid address. I'll try Hondaaccessories.com.

Right you are DaveZ on the address. Also, I haven't any scratches because I used some thick rubber washers to make the plate not come in contact with the bumper.
