you better check on your laws. here in California its about a $500 ticket to have any cover on the license plate whatsoever. Most the time here theyll give you a fix it ticket but this one cop was a dick and gave me a ticket for it. Totally not worth it if this law is in your state!

Now I must live with a ugly license plate on my beautiful f-body.I got the ticket on my 95 Firebird, not my TA. So I had to go out and purchase a license plate holder + pay the fine. Then I sold the car a week later.
K, think I got a bit
there.

Bummer about the plate though, I've had a cover on my plate for a year and a half but I never get any hassels. Knock on wood.
