"Also might wanna check into the LE plates...they've kept me out of trouble."

Not necessarily. I've received alerts from bosses about this; drug dealers and other such criminals are purposely getting these plates in the hopes that a cop will see them and not pull them over. If your car's got violations (Tinted windows, missing plates, obstructions hanging from the rearview mirror, etc.), it doesn't matter what plates you have. There's a good chance you'll get stopped anyway. ANYONE can get these plates, they are not specific to law enforcement. Here in New Jersey, the same thing applies to the "Associate Member" Fraternal Order of Police shields. ANYONE can get them, so they don't help much.

As for the front plate issue, I recommend putting it on where it's visible and where it belongs. It sucks, but it's still a violation not to.
