You would think that Nissan would have this standard on the Z instead of the dimples on the front fascia for where a license plate will go which totally sucks!!

I mounted mine by not mounting one. cops can suck a ****, theres a plate on the back of the car if they are that concerned about it. some states have a "law" which isnt actually a law at all that a plate is "required" on the front, look into that and tell me what you find.
its one of those laws like cell phones on planes. if you tell enough stupid people its a law with no viable reason, then they will believe it and it becomes one. too bad they are taking it back..... after being a "law" for what? 20 some years? |

the mount nissan came up with is actually better for air flow than the way we are mounting it with the toy hook. only prob is it looks ugly and you have to drill holes.

look for mods? lol ive never had a cop ask me to pop the hood. and im PRETTY sure they cant. They are even getting more lax on exhausts now, hell have you heard an SLS AMG go by? or many of the other STOCK high end cars now...... they are loud as ****, hell the SVT raptor has a button that makes it louder ON PURPOSE. so really the only thing they can bug you about is maybe tinting? and thats if they are just TRYING to be an *******. I had one try to give me a tinting ticket when i didnt even HAVE tinting, it was 100% stock. upholds the stereotypes of why people generally dont like the police. But I live in an area where there are porches, mercs, lambos all the time and they would be getting pulled every 10 seconds if the police around here gave 2 ***** about car "mods" thats something you have to worry about in areas where they dont see them very often.

In CA they absolutely can, and the ticket is pretty painful. And in many states, a front plate is required by law. An actual law. One that gets me an $80 ticket every few years since I refuse to follow it.

That doesnt surprise me in the least. In VA there is also a law that you are to pay taxes on any car you own until the day you die based on the cars original MSRP even though you already paid taxes on the car when you bought it and in some cases in a completely different state. **** THAT. Im not one for breaking laws but that one is revolution worthy there...... You know, back in the day when people would actually fight for their rights instead of being a retarded lemming not even realizing what laws they may or may not have helped the federal government and each individual state enact. I would rather pay the 80$ fine instead of the couple grand a year for the tax thank you very much. same for the license plate thing, give me ONE rational reason why you would NEED a front plate, even from the perspective of a police officer. when you get pulled over, have any of you been driving in reverse? And even at low speeds, standing stationary and having a car go by you on the side of the road its pretty hard to get a glimpse of the whole plate and remember each letter accurately. even then, they will just pull out if they wanna get you and read THE BACK. Its there just to make people have one more thing they could be funding state or county revenue with. Its law because dumb people made it law without even realizing it.
Cali is a horrible place to live, talk about oppressive nonsense. VA is hot on its heels on the bullshitometer. Not only are they unjustifiably the most expensive states to live, along with jersey, florida, new york and hawaii. They also have the harshest laws and most taxes of any states. Im movin the hell away from this hell hole, since people seem to have forgotten what it means to say "no" Head for Ohio, its nice, one of the CHEAPEST states with the LOWEST taxes and has stupid laws but not as many. Plus 99% of its rural, suburb, and country. So unless you LIKE noisy, crowded overpopulation, with 2 hour commutes 3 blocks with people who would walk right by if you were getting mugged......... lol. Oh and did I mention you dont need a front license plate? like the forum thread YAY!! oh... and If you chose to go FI? wouldnt that block like..... half of your air intake capability? Just saiyan. "intentional" Last edited by chii370; 07-14-2013 at 10:33 AM. |

I've seen the vinyl sticker license plates around. I'm not sure how legal that is but if it's your license plate and it's on the front of your car, it might be worth a try.

i would think making a fake plate (vinyl) would carry with it a whole set of other legal issues....
be like making a drivers licence sticker and showing a cop that instead of an actual plastic license. |

I can imagine this being a far larger ticket than not having a front plate at all.
