I live in Marin and have yet to get a ticket for no plates. Then again, I know I will. Lots of people up here don't have front plates - not just Porsches. I think I will get my front plate put on during my next services, because I don't want to have my time wasted by a cop pulling me over. I go to the city alot, and stand a decent chance of cops wasting my time there too.

After a while, its easier to simply get a license plate. I'm not thrilled about the holes in the bumper, but what the hell .... maybe it will protect me in a crash ...
