Hey guys~ long time! Happy New Year as well!
I just noticed BET530 had his plates near the mesh! That I haven't seen before in Australia! Very interesting, oh and I saw that in the US, I've seen a few luxury car owners not putting plates in the front of the car?? Is that legal??

Some states require a front license plate and others do not. In California you must have a front license plate. If you don't you'll get a fix it ticket meaning you have to put the front license plate on, go to the police department, have them verify you have the plate on, sign the ticket saying it's fixed, and then mail it into the courts.

I've gotten fix-it tickets before and would just use zip ties to mount my plate in the lower grill area like BET530 and get the ticket written off by a police officer and remove the plate later on. Good alternative to avoid drilling into the bumper.
