Pulled Over For No Front Tag In WI.

**Sweet Chops** · 07-22-2008, 07:35 AM

Like the title says I got pulled over for the second time for not haveing a front plate on the Z. This time the pooper trooper gave me a writen warning so I need to put my plate on. I need suggestions on where to put it. Should I just go with the stock location in the middle, or some place diffrent? Please help I hate the way the front plate looks when it is on.

im planning on moving mine to the lower air damn under the radiator. ive seen a number of cars do this and it seems like a good compromise.

I had a warning back in spring for not having one and still don't. I want one the ones that mount under and you can pull them up or retract them.

We have that dumb ass law in Cali but when I bout mine from the dealer it didnt have one and I havent put one on yet and I have never been bother by the cops and they are everywhere in city I live in

I think it all depends on the cop. I live in Chicago and gotten 2 $75 tickets within 6 months of buying my T/A for not having the front plate on. Also herd storys of other T/A owners getting a ticket for having it up on there dash and even one guy had it mounted under the front bumper right behind the raditor. Cop gave them tickets and wrote on the ticket improperlly displayed front plate. So unless you can afford $75 every couples months for not having your plate on then I'd go for it. If not I know it looks like crap on there but they can give you a ticket for having it mounted anywhere except right in the front of the bumper.

I was thinking of putting it on the air dam but after reading that I could still get a ticket for improperlly displayed front plate I dont think I will do that. I think I am going to get the mount from afterthoughtsauto.

Putting a front plate anywhere on these cars takes away from the look. Pennsylvania is good for something, haha.

Don't lie, no it's not.

Go to Ninosport,com and get yourself a retrackable licence holder. I love mine.

**96Firebirdformula** · 07-27-2008, 06:57 AM

Front plates are ugly

**99BluSS** · 07-28-2008, 09:56 AM

Yes they are, but when you are warned more than once, the cost of a retractable licence holder is cheaper than tickets or a lawyer.

The nice thing about the retractable, during cars shows and states that do not require 2 licence plates, you can hide it and no one will know the difference.

I have the black billet grille with the blue bowtie in the center and this works extemely well for me.

**wikked_r1** · 07-29-2008, 10:10 AM

I think you should run next time.

**99BluSS** · 07-29-2008, 10:21 AM

LOL. I would hate to see the SS being towed and confined in the inpound lot. Horror stories what they do to nice cars...

**SSNAKEATER23** · 07-29-2008, 12:03 PM

Living in Chicago dont get bothered too much. But when i go to the suburbs they have gotten me a few times. But for the most part im good. I'd say leave it off!!!
