There is a mount that allows you to bolt the plate to existing bolt holes under the car and not drill into the paint. It's about $100 and linked on this forum. That's what I will probably do when my plates come in.

Nope not putting the front on. When I bought my car I asked them not to install the front bracket. If rather pay a ticket than put the front license on.

Ugh. My temps last until mid April so I'll probably wait to see if anything else is out by then.

I think my city has more police and sheriff than any other city in TEXAS. You literally cannot drive for 3 minutes without seeing one.

So I went and picked up my plates today. I ran into my sales person and I asked him if I should put on the front plate. He said they don't put them on any of the Camaro's or Vettes and that 9 out of 10 times, the cops don't hassle. I guess we'll find out!!

just buy it, it is cheap and you can take off the plates for shows in 2 seconds.

I have the front on and I saw another one in blue with the front on. I hear some people saying it ruins the car, not exactly sure how big those people's license plates are but they would have to be 3 feet long to ruin the look of the front of these cars. They look mean with or without a license plate. A normal license plate is definitely not big enough to "ruin" the look of these cars. Go ahead and put it on. It looks fine. Lol. However I just zip tied mine that way I can take it off if I need to

This is what I did. Not worth the ticket here in NY. I have gotten pulled over numerous times, I even came home from work, to find a ticket on my car that was sitting in the train parking lot.
