No, only because the bracket got lost when I wrecked the car 2 1/2 years ago. Never put in the effort to replace it. :D

I hate the holes & looks of the plate on there... law be danged!...

I will fab long bolts to install it if I have to down in the lower opening... I have seen that a few times & it looks better. Saves the bumper, no holes.

You will not hear me complain if I get a ticket for this... I accept full responsibility!

I have a front plate, but reluctantly - got a fix-it ticket a while back :mad:

I've seen a couple cops looking at my front bumper, although I'm not sure if it was due to the lack of a front plate. I'm guessing/hoping my Florida plate will keep me from getting nailed for it. They don't seem to mind my Blackbird nav unit stuck on the windshield under the rear view mirror so far either. :rolleyses

No front plate here....I'm not too good for it (as the poll states), just like the looks better. I know I run the risk of a citation, but that is my risk to take.

Ran the car just fine for a few months till I accidently had my right foot on the gas too hard. 55mph in a 35mph zone and got hit for no front plate. :smack:

No biggy....I have a small drink after the drag strip, so the less reasons I give to an officer for pulling me over....the better for me :butt:

I bought the car used, it came with front plates. However, I bought a "Mach 1" plate in original lettering from the plate guy at the Pomona Swap Meet. I guess since the background of the plate is white, from a distance it looks like state issued plates. As of yet, the Sheriffs' haven't pulled me over.

I have a vintage-style FORD plate (the one with the light bulb instead of the 'O', you know...A Better Idea) that I stick on with velcro for the GTGs. The rest of time I have the front plate 'on'.
