I used this while I still ran a front plate - I don't currently run one and haven't had any issues but your mileage may vary.

Got one off ebay/amazon, only downside is it sticks out a little more than i wanted from the front. But I'd rather have that than pay double for something that just holds your license plate...

the best thing about the ebay one with the multiple positions is you can screw it as far in or out as u want. mine is almost flush to my bumper. and the hole multiple position helps so u can put the plate as clost to center as possible so its not just hanging far off to the side.

I'm in Florida...they only issue one plate...for the back. We don't even GET a front plate. Coming from Commiefornia, where they will pull you over for not having one, I love this state. I never used a front plate in CA, and they used that as a reason to stop me many times. Front plates are BS, but I was more comfortable being stopped for not having it than degrading my car with it.

I live in a state where we are issued two plates. I just choose not to have a front plate on my vehicle.

Just curious, how many times have you been stopped for it? I've had a G37 for 8ish years now, and have never run a front plate in Los Angeles. I also drive something like 35,000 miles a year, so I'm on the road constantly.
