OK. So i know its sorta illegal to remove your front lisence plate in CA , but it looks SO much better. Anyway. There are the 2 drill holes. Is there anyway to fill those? or make them less obvious?

 

Ya. you could fill in the hole, but i'm not sure how to.

haha i just used white plugs that are made to cover screws on those shelves you can assemble on your own. just stuck em in the hole and added a lil glue. they've been holdin on eversince and looks pretty clean IMO.

 

i'd put that back on, from what i heard they are raising fines

 

I believe that about Ah-nold raising the fines. He needs to make some $$$ somewhere since he ain't making $$$ anywhere else! I guess the front plate thing depends on your ride. If you have a tricked-out who-ryde, then you're just itchin' to get pulled over by the po-po. My g/f's bro has a Honda Accord that's about 6 yrs old and it has no front plates and hasn't been pulled over yet. Of course, the car is stock as heck!

 

i have driven by SO many cops, and not one has even taken a double glance. Im willing to take the risk.

 

For New York people, there is a petition you can sign to get rid of the front license plate. Sign below:

haha i just noticed this thread moved.. is it because the front license plate counts as air friction, thus adding more drag to the car? haha, gave me some giggles there

 

i have no holes =) hehhe i think im not going to do anything to it till i get a fixing ticket..

 

duddee.. do you really live in Orange County? I love the show The OC.... how's Newport Beach???

 

I was battling with that question myself on how to fill the hols, now i am so happy that you guys told us about those plugs, i have wanted to relocate my front plate to my bottom grille area, they sell the plate relocators on ebay cheap.

 

Heres a pic with bumperplugs installed



And FYI, the OC isnt even filmed in Orange County. They film most of the stuff here in Redondo Beach about a mile from my house.

 

cute plugs.. reminds me i gotta wash my car....

they had the making of The OC on the season DVD's and showed the actual place where it was, but i forgot the name of the town.. hmm, Redondo Beach u say??? can u go around and take any pictures of any places that are shot in the show.... do it for a fellow ScionLife member =)

 

I dont watch the show, but i know they filmed a lot of stuff in an empty retaurant. Its now been bought and changed so you probably wouldnt recognize it. I have friends who watch the show and live in Orange County and they went around looking and found a bunch of places they recognized from the show.

 

it is illegal. i got a ticket for the stupid thing. and putting it in your dash doesnt work either. i still got pulled over and ticketed. cops are ___ in CA

 

i'm from ny too, but cmon now, when has petitiononline ever worked.

 

Yeah, Bumperplugs rock.

 

the front plate law is stupid, and drilling holes in a new car just to obey the law is just rediculous. I told the scion dealership where I live that I was moving away to school to VA where you don't have to have a front plate so they wouldn't drill holes in my car. I have been pulled over once for it, but I explained to the cop that I wasn't drilling holes in my new car, and he gave me a verbal warning. I'll pay the $45 fine if I get a ticket, rather spend $45 then drill holes in my car. just my .02

 

I wish I could get rid of the front license plate. Bumper plugs do look really good though. And the show the OC and others like Laguna Beach represent a very very small part of Orange County.
