I used to get pulled over for no front plate every two months of so, haven't been pulled over since.

...well for speeding, of course but they haven't mentioned anything about the plate.

just one bolt does the trick? does it ever tilt up on one side or does the bumper hold it where it needs to be..

a picture from further away perhaps? nice job regardless.

nice...i may go this route cause i cant register my car unless i get a safety inspection and you need to have both plates mounted to pass...and with the AP2 front bumper, you have to remove the bumper to mount the factory plate holder and im too lazy to do that...regardless of the fact i will still need to get a recon cause in hawaii they are dicks when it comes to lowered cars...even with tein s-techs

The US plates don't fit the Japanese holes.

front license plates dont have the registration decals like the back ones do...so really it makes no sense for a state to require a front license plate except to get more money from you...im pretty sure a police officer isnt going to look in his rearview mirror/camera to check your front plate

Our front plates have the same decals/barcodes as the back. The main point of contention is they want to be able to run your plates in a parking lot if you're backed in/parked where the rear plate isn't easily visible.

^^^ MO plates are identical front and back. The lack of a front license plate is ticket worthy. Perhaps the front plate is there to help with traffic camera tickets?
