man i love how the cops up around your alls area are about that shit man, i was headed up there and got pulled over and then got asked like 50 questions all from have i ever done coke to basically if they could do a cavity search and i agree with miller, front plates are gay regardless of where you choose to put them and the cops just need to let off man, top end cars dont have front plate holders and they dont get picked on but as soon as its on a honda........sirens are blarin

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one who's sour about the front plate (when I was living in Kansas, NO front plate period! Same for my brother in Indiana). So back in '06, I put a dark tinted "aero" cover on my front plate, because it seemed to lessen my pain and anger. It made the hideous white plate stand out a bit less on her gorgeous front end. The plate was still perfectly visible, so I was good (or so I thought). Had it on for about two months.

Then one day, driving N-bound on Clarkson Rd (Ellisville), an officer in a motorcycle pulls me over. He was super cool and professional (virtually every officer I have ever dealt with has been this way with me, I guess I'm lucky), and after talking with me for a couple of minutes about the illegal front plate obstruction, he gave me a written warning (like a citation, but with no fine) and told me to get that thing off asap. I thanked him and then drove off. Naturally, I took it off as soon as I got back home.

But after doing this, I was once again staring at that abomination on my front bumper and almost lost it. Lord knows I would rip that thing off in a heartbeat, but I can't fathom the thought of paying a fine. So ever since then, it's been on.

I just needed to vent about this. It's been building up for awhile.:blob1:
