This kind of topic.
It is all about luck.
Seriously, I ran no front plate for 5 years without issue.
Then, boom~ 3 difference cops stopped me within 2 weeks time period for no front plate tickets.
bumping an old thread, since this thread was made how many people have been driving with a cut/bent front license plate and how many have been hassled? Considering slightly modifying mine to fit overtop of a german license plate
I had this on for 5 years and only ever had two problems, one cop at a roadblock thought I was driving an actual European reg'd car and then checked and laughed about it with me. Another cop decided to power trip and told me its illegal to cut the plate, and then insisted that I had cut it. But I had only bent it behind the German plate, he then used that as an excuse to look for something else wrong which he didn't find and let me go. He told me if he saw me with the plate again he'd VI me. LOL right..
Depends on the cop, but honestly you'll be fine

I dont understand how that euro plate in the back makes it look any cleaner/nicer..
My old car had it on because it looked idiotic with a US plate screwed into an obvious Euro mount, it grew on me and I liked seeing the reflection of it...
Except I'm weird/strange so

Been driving around like this for six months. I work nights and weekends so I've driven through about 20 roadblocks. I folded it back because it was blocking a lot of airflow to my intercooler. I would have done what snails did but my bumper has a intergrated spot for a licence plate.
I don't understand why ICBC can't issue us plates that fit on the bumper properly.
I don't understand why car manufacturers can't make bumpers for the North American market that fit the plates used in all but MAYBE one North American jurisdiction.

Look at the picture of my plate above. Look at the mounting points.
I ran a cut front plate for a while, never had any problems. Also ran no front plate and never had any problems. Also ran two different plates and never had any problems.
Why would you run two different plates instead of just taking the front one off?
I can't recall ever seeing this covered, but since it's related - is it illegal to drill extra mounting holes in the plates? JDM bumpers and USDM plates don't like to play nice.

Unless you drill 2" holes with a hole saw, I'm sure any reasonable person would be fine with 2 holes being punched along the top of the plate so that it can be mounted on different spaced holes.
Here's a Mensa approach suggestion...if the licence plate doesn't fit the bolt holes, why not mount a backing plate to the holes that fit and bolt the licence to the backing plate by drilling holes that fit? Nahh...too easy and nothing to bitch about on RS.
