Do you actually get pulled over for no front license plate in Socal? I've not had a front license plate in, gee, almost 11 years. Never once had it questioned. Just make sure you have a custom front bumper (i have stillen) instead of stock with the holes there saying "Well i COULD have a license plate but I took it off"

Lol well actually I did get pulled over and cited for no front license plate on my 06 sti and unfortunately the officer decided to cite me for the modified muffler and a tint. But that was many years ago and now I have my new Z and I just got 30% tint all around and 80% on windshield. So I would hope having a front license plate would make me less prone to getting pulled over than not having one. Plus the peace of mind is golden lol

Ya, that's your prob. Tint and muffler sound. Once he's prejudice against you for that he uses the license plate as a legit reason to pull you over then cites you for all of it.

I keep my stillen exhaust complete, tint is legal, never get pulled over for anything. Cops get annoyed by sound and not being able to see you. Plus different windshield vs different window tint is SUPER easy to identify as illegal. Keep them all the same to avoid that.

True, it just happened to be one of those "wrong place at the wrong time" scenarios :P as much as I learned my mistake from modifying a car I still can't live without the look, the privacy, and temperature reduction from tint. It's my first time with windshield tint and fortunately it looks very uniformed all the way around and that makes me feel at ease at times. Plus I'm planning to keep the Z stock until the warranty period is over.. just resisting the temptation lol

I hear the Stillen one is the best on the market but I just bought the one off Amazon for $30 and I've been happy so far. It could use a little better hardware but washers are cheap at Home Depot and the savings is well worth it. I got away without a front plate for a while, but I personally like the way the offset plate looks anyways so it's a win/win
