    Re: No front license plate?

    They are required in Ohio but not in the surrounding states. The cops don't pay much attention to it here in DAyton because we are close to state borders. What I did with my plate on my s2000 is take it off and put it betwwen my seats. I also put a small clear suction cup on it in case I get pulled over. I can just stick it to the windsheild. I have not been stopped for it yet.

    I have been pulled over 5+ times for no front license plate, but the local cops around here don't really care. They are mostly just bored, and want to make sure I don't have anything I'm not supposed to have in my car. Most of the time they just want someone to chat to. haha

    Re: No front license plate?

    it's not that they'd know it's JDM, it's that they'd notice there's not a proper front amber reflector on the car. i doubt i'll get pulled over for it though

    that's about what i did, except i'm putting driving lights in the stock holes, so i put it right next to the signal light.

    when i do the body work i'm filling in the stock holes and the holes i made, so i can use the excuse of not having anywhere to put it.
    It's not failure, it's redefined objectives!

    Re: No front license plate?

    Here in Mo., your supposed to have a front license plate. I didn't have a mounting plate when I got the car. I've been pulled over once about it, but was just given a warning. I've since put my front license plate in the right corner of the front windsheild. I haven't been fucked with by the cops since. I probably need to get a mounting plate, but I don't drive my car on a daily basis.
