Front Plate Bluues :( So I Bought my car on the 5th. It is a USED 09 G8 GT. And it was originally from Michigan (Where, I am assuming, front plates are not required). So since it is used, the new car inspection sticker (which is good for 4 years) is no longer on the car. I have to get the car inspected. And wonderful New Jersey requires a front license plate. However, I have no mount, and there are no holes yet. I wanted to keep it that way! I dont want to drill into my front end! But, to get it inspected, I have to have one. What should I do?????

windshield is probably illegal, and you won't pass.
zip tie, and then take it off, or get the show-n-go retractable plate mount bracket, which is what I have. It's pretty cool, but you have to drill, but hey, it's the bottom of the bumper, you can't even see it.

yes, yes. Now THATS a good idea! lol. I just got back from Florida. No front plates, no inspection stickers and Tint is legal!. WTF. I'm stratin to lean more towards the double sided tape thing if I cant ziptie it somehow. I'm sure the tape could be easily removed. side moldings and emblems are held on that way and I took those off my Trans Am.
