nj front tag ?
 
ok well im tired of looking at the tag on the grille that i have. and wanted to find out from some of the members on here that are officers if i would get alot of **** for having my tag mounted on the lower valance.

i mounted my old monte carlo tag just to get an idea.


i know the law states cant block any lettering or cover the tag. i didnt see anything saying it had to be mounted on the front bumper.(just says front and rear of car)

prolly get bothered more with it there cause u cant really see it that well. i dont have the front tag on my iroc and i dont get bothered at all.

there's more than just "the front", there are visibility and height restrictions

i went about 10 months with no front plate(cycled it on and off every month or so) and finally got pulled over for it last week. just depends how bored the cops around you are.

Don't feel the need to impress random people driving around. i would rather have the plate visable, then take the ticket. Thats just me though.

This has been asked a lot(I've even posted this topic). If you don't want to keep it where it is, don't run one at all. I just keep it in the back seat in an emergency. Also might wanna check into the LE plates...they've kept me out of trouble.

:stupid: I believe the height restriction is in the ballpark of 12"-18" off the ground.

i ordered mine from jegs. it was 20 shipped. tucks under nicely, took two seconds to install. i usually dont rock the front plate but im tired of getting harrassed. :nod:

I wish they would just drop front plates. They serve no purpose and they cost more to make. And since cops are already pulling me over for made up reasons, Id appreciate at least one freebie ya kno?

I've only gotten hassled for it once. Told him the bracket was on back order. The cars been on the road since January 07

i got a written warning a couple weeks ago for no front plate, the cop actually thought the front plate filler on my car was cool...i just told him i forgot to put it on after a cruise night....its been on since

i heard the fine is now north of $100?

Really? You thought that plate under the car would be ok? Really? This is a joke, right?

sweetbmxrider 08-19-2009 10:16 PM

BonzoHansen 08-19-2009 10:17 PM

Behind the grille? how about as a FRC?

LS1ow 08-19-2009 11:27 PM

LTb1ow 08-19-2009 11:39 PM

Zip tie both plates to the rear bumper.
