In California, there is a cheap ~$15 ticket for no front-plate, but there is also a more expensive ticket that is over a $100. Sadly, I've received the more expensive one before.
That is true about bumper plugs. However one size doesn't fit all. Before going with an M-tech front bumper on my 335i, the stock bumper was drilled with a front plate. The holes drilled were small and to make the bumper plugs fit, I'd had to enlarge the holes so the bumper plugs would fit.

I wonder what a Nissan salesperson would say when one of us throw a fit over buying the Z because of a front plate, lol.
