Well, I ground down all the "unnecessary border" of my front plate and mounted it to my Coastal Metals grill. Even used same trim around the plate that is on the grill...looks real nice IMO. And as I *like* my personalized plate since it further presents "The Bruised Banana"...I really don't mind one being on the front and rear of my car.

I really like your pic Deception but i assume that would require drilling the bumper looks like im leaning towards 02spas2k idea. I have a spa yellow too and i like how you have the tinted frame to really try to blend it in to the black. Those things that you get from honda to cover the licence plate holes....do they come painted?

These are good ideas, but I will have an intercooler in my grill soon, so any other good ideas for me?

you can fabricate a mounting bracket that is connected to the fake duct. So you dont have to drill the bumper. The honda plug covers to my knowledge come painted.

Intercooler wise, youre shot. Either reg place to mount it or on the side, either way it wont matter as long as airflow isnt restricted to the cooler. I would suggest however, dude to the stage your car is at, to go with the side mount it would be different.

Right now, I haven't gotten hassled about a front plate, but when the day comes, they will remember you. I got hassled by the cops for no front plate on my STi and later that day, I got pulled over saying they had a report on me saying I should have a front plate on because I was warned. Now it is on there. I just want to be prepared. Thanks for the suggestion.
