Default Hiding your license plate?

I have heard here and there that you can have buttons to press and the license plate secretly removes or fold or whatever. Anyone have something similar? Or even heard of places doing it?

send an email to David Hasselhoff. If I can remember correctly Kit had this on Night Ridder. You would need however another valid plate frlom another state or it would be useless!

I think it only comes as a standard feature on austin martin's but I think the Z4 had it for a while....I'm pretty sure it was only available in the UK

I've only seen one for trucks that tucks the plate up under the bumper. It would be cool if you reengineered it to drop the plate down at an angle, like 45

That is part of a option package which includes the PES (Passenger Ejection Seat) the OSG (Oil Slick Generator) and the patented BSTS (Ben-HurStyle Tire Slashers). It also comes with the CTDS (C-4 Theft Deterent System).

Wow, thats pretty creative.

I think you would get an even bigger fine if you got caught without the plates. Are you trying to elude cops?

, seems likely that if the cops pull you over for that, they're going to think you're up to something. Just removing the plate in front is at least not suspicious (although I have heard of folks getting ticketed for it up here in MA).
