Default Front plate

You guys have seen this question before no doubt but I'm askin any how. I notice in some pics lots of you have no front plate, have you gotten any unwanted attention from the cops because of this. I'd like to loose mine but don't need the hassle.

It's like a $20 ticket so no biggie. Yes, I've been hassled/pulled over several times in different vehicles as I've refused to put a front plate on them, but I have yet to receive anything but a warning. The car looks soo much better without the plate

Although the chance of anything happening would be rare, I would be a bit concerned if someone was involved in an accident and the plate on the inside window might injure someone inside the car. Perhaps you've already thought about this and have it tied or taped down in some manner.

I don't have a front plate on any of my cars. So far I haven't had any problems.

I wonder if placing the front plate on the dash when parking in such places would keep off the LEO's. Might be worth keeping it on top of the tool kit for just such occasions.
