is it true that in texas that we dont need our front plates on our bumpers anymore????

 

I don't got a plate on the front and I've never had any problems....

 

I talked to the dmv and they said that yes you have to have it displayed. But i havent had mine displayed for awhile and havent had any problems.

 

You wount get pulled over for it but if you do get pulled over for something else.You could get a ticket for not having one..i keep mine on the on the floor board..and if they ask just say hey it fell off or something like that..

 

I don't have it on mine... I don't want to drill the holes in it. I heard from a police officer that a new law was passed that they didn't have it on the front anymore. Well, I decided to look into other venues if it still has to be on there, such as getting a vynil sticker made of my license plate to put on the front so that I don't have to drill holes.

 

The bill passed in one house but not the other. You DO need to have a front plate on, but please don't drill your bumper, goto Home Depot and make a mounting bracket for it.

 

are you saying that it is ok to take it off if you have it on the front ............ are just be care full with out it on

 

by law u have to have a front plate on the front bumper... i just got outta a ticket a week ago for this so its definitely still in effect haah

 

Yup I just got my ticket the other day for not having a front license plate. So I'm gonna have to go get that dismissed when I put in in the windshield.

 

windshield wont work it has to be mounted to the front of the car...

 

grrr...ok i guess I'll have to make a run to home depot so I can mount it. I don't have the heart to drill it into my bumper.

 

freakin changing laws. when I took my driving school, they told us we didn't have to have a front license plate.......

and some dealers are forgeting to put them on. when steph (celticred) got her '04 xb traded for an '06xb they didn't put her front plate on

 

I ride without one. I got a ticket the other month and the cop didn't even notice my missing front licence plate. But I think i'm just gonna suck it up and drill one on. If i'm a little buzzed one night I wouldn't want to give a cop an excuse to pull me over. My .02

 

i forgot about you!

instead of drilling it in your self. if your gonna put one on, go to home depot and make a custom bracket that attaches through the bottom grille, you can take it off for shows and not have those annoying holes.

 

But I plan on getting a black Grillcraft grill - just like you. And if I recall, I think the holes in that mesh are way too small. Aren't they? I think if anyone is planning to get a grill upgrade (billet or whatever), the bracket idea goes out the window. You'd be spending extra money at the possibility of scratching that lovely powder coat.

 

yeah i know i'm just hoping that they (cops) don't say anything - but that will be kinda hard since i work for city of duncanville and the cops are right down the hall from me. Ha!

i think when the time comes i'll go to home depot and get the parts to mount it on - this time i don't want to drill it. : )

 

actually I think it wouldnt be too hard to do something even with the grillecraft........ but I have no first hand expirience at it so im not infallable on that.

btw im almost starting a grillecraft revolution aound here..... am i the first in our area with it?? i dont think so, but kinda cool if I am.....
