I leave mine off. Never been pulled over for it. Someone here suggested running over the other plate a hundred times and leaving it in the car. When you get pulled over, pull out the damaged plate and tell the officer it just fell off.
not going to work with a smart cop. he catches you in a lie and consider yourself screwed. honesty is the best policy. think about this, using this method an intelligent cop should be intuitive enough to see holes are not even drilled in your bumper, then what will you say. better off keeping it off and risk the silly fine. in nj its like 42 bucks. i ahve had mine off the whole life of the car. wont ever put it on. never got a ticket either, knock on wood, but did get pulled over clocked at 120 racing a z28, i was let off the ticket and when asked why i didnt have a tag up front the excuse i tried was,"it was a special order part from dodge cause they dontreally sell alot of these cars at the local dodge dealership" sounded good to me but this vet wasnt buying it. his reply was," look guy, i just let you go from a massive speeding ticket, along with a reckless driving ticket, and racing on the highway ticket. the last carries an automatic 3 month license suspension, and thats the best you can come up with. he then asks me to tell him the truth. I said," ok look, i am not going to ever drill holes in my car to put a hideous metal plate on the front of my car". he says, "thanks for the honest reply. .. by the way, the was 10 cars in front of the z28 when we got ticked!
Dumb law. Vipers look best without front plates!
