I stopped to talk with a cop about something and he said, "Oh, BTW...some guys might give you a hard time about no front plate...". I made a license plate mount from 2" aluminum angle, with a stainless frame from Griot's, and stuck it in the grille opening, using the
oil cooler mounting bolts to hold it in place. It's about as unobtrusive as it gets and now "I am not in violation of the law" (in my best Inspector Clouseau imitation).
I really think most cops are just normal guys who appreciate a nice car the way anyone else would, but once in awhile you run across a stiff d**k. Why give him something to screw you with?
