2 warnings in 3 days.

I just recieved a warning for "No front plate" as I entered Bay city on Highway 35 eastbound. This past Friday I recieved the same warning south bound on 288 from Houston.

I hate to do it, but I may have to re-install the buck teeth on my 8, and this depresses me.

Sorry to hear.

Move to Alabama. No BS front license law. Best of all, my first gen rx7 can pollute as much as it wants because no smog checks!

Yes, sorry, I was just venting. I just dont think anything looks worse then a front plate on an 8.
I keep hoping Texas will do away with that law, but I recon there is too much revenue generated because of it.

Unless you want to be driving on your library card; I'd put the plate on.

Florida is cool about cars in a couple aspects. No smog, and no front license plate. Allthough, I believe we have a law in place where if you're caught racing they tow your ****, which is bad. Supposedly it's like impounded indefinately. Don't know if there is any truth to it, I just heard it.

Maybe carry the mounting kit and such in your car and when they pull you over, tell them you are taking it to mazda to get it mounted

However, I'm guessing they put your liscense # in their databases...
