out of curiosity, did you guys have the front plates put in, or the car came like that when you bought it? i told my dealer not to drill holes in the front... so i was wondering if you guys were given the option or not.
personally it seems to break the front look with the frame... but that's just me.

With the recent problems you had with aftermarket wheels..I'm glad to see you finally got some quality OEM wheels

Many have ordered their cars without drilling for the front plates...whether or not it's legal...dealers will do it if requested. You just have to chance the ticket. (Co-worker just got a ticket this week!)
BTW, Presley, the wheels look great!
