Front license plates

Any creative mounting methods out there like behind the grill ?

I mounted mine in the trunk. I bought the ZL1 Addon license plate bracket just for fun. So if I do maybe get a ticket, I can tell him I took it off to clean the car or went to a track or some stupid excuse. The ticket is $75 in Texas. Small price to pay for no front tag.

Isn't that the ShoNSteal: off in seconds?

Hmm...I'm in FW Texas and last year I got pulled over and was given a citation for no front plate that was going to cost me $198. I just installed the plate and sent a picture to the municipal judge (Southlake) and only ended up paying like $20 though.

I found a tow mount bracket on e-bay that clears the grill by about 1/2" and mounts the plate up in front of the crash bar, out of the airflow. Fairly light weight and a perfect fit if you gotta have a front license plate.

Probably looks like crap but a clever mounting point, I have a machine shop, I’ll check that out.
