Dam you guys pay that much for fixing tickets? We pay $10 here in Cali!!! LOL... 
I therefore have a front plate, don't use a radar detector, and will never own a bright red car.

No front plate since the M-tech conversion. I have the Skin bracket installed which is used/recommended by a few members in here. I just keep the plate in the trunk, in case of being pulled over (knock on the wood) and my excuse will be: "Sorry officer, I'm actually on my way to Homedepot to find a replacement screw."

Here in LA cops are in every streets, you'll see some of them loitering in corners waiting for you to make a traffic mistake and pull you over. That sucks!! it's like they are taking a break or something!!! :thumbsdown:

you guys across the pond are so lucky regarding licence plates, we have massive ugly yellow ones on the rear, and the same oblong ones up front.
i saw a cop program on cable somewhere in the USA and the guy did not even have a licence plate on the back?? is that legal?
our letters/numbers have to be 4 & half inches tall (in black) but the one good thing is we have cool personalised plates
if you have enough money you can have any that are available/for sale.
best i ever saw was 2 rolls royces, one very old (40's) and 1 brand new, both in yellow and black following each other
the old roller had the plate ....1 AM 1 and the other had....RU 12
guy in our town has AK47 on a range rover.
i thought that was cool.

I received a no front plate ticket a week ago in Chicago. They ticketed me while the car was parked.
